5. Spinach

Although not nearly as high in calcium as dairy products, spinach does have more calcium than most vegetables. However, the calcium isn’t absorbed as well as the calcium in dairy products, says Collingwood.

6. Broccoli

The same thing holds true for broccoli as it does with spinach: better than many vegetables when it comes to calcium, but still not as high as dairy.

7. Calcium-fortified orange juice

 

If you can’t eat dairy, Collingwood recommends turning to calcium-fortified products like orange juice to meet your daily calcium needs. Many companies manufacture calcium-fortified versions of their popular products.
