Are you getting enough calcium?

According to my blood tests I am but when I do the online checks to see if my daily/weekly calcium is sufficient the answer is no!

I think I will start to do a top up that gives a bit of a boost to my daily calcium.

A bit of cheese seems to be the best source of calcium.

Add yoghurt, leafy greens and others that contain a fraction of the day’s requirement and you are only three quarters of the way there.

Check online to see if your daily calcium is sufficient. You may be surprised as I was!
