Did you know?
- Calcium is essential throughout life to build and maintain bone strength, as it increases bone mineral density.
- Vitamin D is key for calcium absorption and maintaining bone strength and muscle function.
- The human body cannot produce calcium, therefore we have to ensure we get enough calcium through our diet to meet our daily requirement.
- 73% of Australian women don’t get enough calcium through diet alone.¹
Calcium rich food sources
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
Milk basedMilk: provides a rich and absorbable source of calcium with 1 cup containing approximately 300mg of calcium.² Cheese: 60g portions of feta, cheddar and brie provide approximately 270mg of calcium, 480mg of calcium and 240mg of calcium respectively.?? Yoghurt: A 200g tub of yoghurt provides roughly 300mg of calcium.² |
Marine basedSardines and salmon (with soft edible bones) should be included in a healthy diet for good bones. ½ cup of canned salmon delivers approximately 400mg of calcium.² |
Bean & legume basedTofu: ½ cup of tofu provides around 430mg of calcium.³ Beans: ½ cup of white beans contains 81mg of calcium and ½ cup of red kidney beans contains 25mg of calcium.³ Beans also contain phytic acid, a component that can reduce how much of the calcium is absorbed into the body. For this reason, you may need to consume more of this food to meet your calcium requirements.³ |
Vegetable basedCooked bok choy: ½ cup serve contains approx. 79mg of calcium.³ Cooked broccoli: 1 cup delivers approx. 45mg of calcium, 50-60% of which should be absorbed.² Cooked kale: ½ cup supplies 47mg of calcium.³ Raw watercress: 120g (a medium bunch) contains about 188mg of calcium.?? |
Bone health across life stages
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
Pregnancy & InfancyA developing baby needs calcium, especially during the third trimester of pregnancy when the skeleton is developing. 80% of the total calcium needed by a developing baby is transferred from the mother at this time.???? |
Children & AdolescentsDuring adolescence, puberty prompts a growth spurt and bones reach their maximum rate of growth. Calcium is especially important during this time, as these are crucial years where you are building your ‘bone bank’ for life.???? |
AdulthoodYou reach your peak bone mass at around 30 years old. The more you have in your ‘bone bank’ at this stage, the more you can stave off the age-related decline in bone density. |
Menopause & SeniorsBetween the ages of 50 and 70, women need more calcium than men to make up for rapid bone loss during menopause.??This is why osteoporosis is more common in Australian women.?? |
