Lactose intolerance has nothing to do with low calcium, if anything it will help you. Super easy to get plenty of calcium, eat green vegetables!

One simple recipe: cook spinach (boil, steam, microwave), wring out water, add salt and sesame oil to taste.



A cup of spinach has about 30 mg of calcium.

A cup of milk has about 300 mg.

Also, most of the calcium in the spinach is in the form of oxalates, which are not readily absorbed (and if they are absorbed, may contribute to the formation of kidney stones).
