I'm a vegetarian and I hate dairy..?

Question

what's a good way to get calcium?

Answer 1

am too,is a vegetarian. i m not sure if ur to follow my recommendation. mostly i drink fortified non dairy milks such as soybean milk. plants foods that provide calcium and offer things are good for the bones: vitamin k --in leafy greens, vit. c, potassium and magnesium in fortified orange juices.
leafy greens have also folate good for the heart. beans , nuts, non-citrus fruits are good sources of boron.
leafy green vegetables: calcuim are: kale, brocolli, collard greens and soymilk absorbed about the same percentages as that in cow s milk.
spinach, swiss chard and beet greens is not well absorbed,due to their high content of oxalates whic bind calcium
many nondairy milks are now fortified with with calcium, vit. d, vit.b-12, many orange juices and other juices are fortified with calcium.

: MAKE SURE YOU SHAKE CALCIUM FORTIFIED NON-DAIRY MILK BEFORE POURING AS THE CALCIUM CAN SETTLE ON THE BOTTOM!

Answer 2

hehehe...if you dislike dairy, then just make the jump to being vegan... :)

and no, beauty b, vegans are NOT boring! unless any vegan you know is a *boring* person, then i can't help you on that one, it wouldn't matter what dietary conscience they had... :P

i find vegan dishes to be some of the most varied, exotic, healthful, humanitarian, satisfying, and tasty foods around! ;)

try some Pennette Positano with tomatoes/basil, eggplant and zucchini, and tell me *that* is boring! :P
