What dairy foods are good sources of calcium?

0

Milk is one of the best sources of calcium. Babies under 1 year old should drink breast milk or iron-fortified formula. Children 1 to 2 years old should drink whole milk because certain fats are needed for development during this early stage. Between the ages of 2 and 5 years, gradually switch from whole milk to low-fat milk or fat-free milk. There are plenty of dairy foods other than plain milk that are great sources of calcium. Try to set a good example by eating foods high in calcium yourself. Here are some ideas for adding calcium to your family’s diet. Have low-fat or nonfat milk, cottage cheese with fruit, and yogurt available for snacks. Cook hot cereals with milk instead of water. Serve yogurt smoothies instead of juice. Add yogurt to lunches or use as a dip when having a fruit snack. Add lean shredded cheese to baked potatoes, vegetables, soups, and salads. Use milk when making cream soups instead of water. Serve flavored milk or hot chocolate for an evening treat. Use Parmesa
