I can't tell you what the exact amount is, because I have read many different numbers - some higher than others. I'm 44 and I take 630mg of calcium w/ 400iu of D3. I also started taking a Vit D. supplement of 700iu. I read that 1,000 ius of D3 is a good bet. I would not start on anything, though until you've researched for yourself.
Joanna said:Yes, I have heard the same that it is almost never enough calcium if I just rely on food alone. I wonder if there is a recommended amount of calcium I should take each day? Let's say one or two calcium pills? Also, there are some pills with vitamin in it to help with calcium absorption. So many choices..

Joanna Trusdle said:Joanna, I have found yogart to be a very easy way to get calcium. I have it with an egg for breakfast, and sometimes for a snack. I don't know how you feel about this, but I also take a calcium supplement. They say that the amount of calcium women need is almost impossible to find just in food.
Joanna said:To keep to my goal about getting more calcium, I will need to get some milk and yogurt from grocery store tomorrow!
Joanna said:Ok. I stayed away from the chips today:)
Another thing to is to drink milk or soy milk to get more calcium.... I have not been doing that at all...

Any updates today?
Remember to stay on track with healthy eating!
Personally, I have never paid much attention to healthy eating before because I exercised very regularly. However, with increasingly busy schedule and the fact that my metabolic rate has been slowing down, it is now becoming more important to eat healthy!
My goal for today is eat more fruits and no instant noodles.
Jo
