I am often told by "experts" that the children and I need to  
supplement with calcium tablets because we aren't eating dairy.  I  
finally got fed up explaining how you can get calcium from other  
foods so I decided to show them how much calcium I eat on a daily basis.

I fed my food intake for 3 weeks into a program that calculates the  
nutrient value.  It turns out that I am averaging 1700mg of calcium a  
day. Not bad, just have to eat a lot of greens to do it.  LOL

I think I am going to do it  on the children's food intake before  
their  next well child visit and take it into the appointment with me  
as I am having the devil's own job convincing their ped that they are  
having a well balanced diet that contains no dairy.
