'We should pay close attention to how much calcium we consume, since it’s very important for our health. Calcium is responsible for the construction and maintenance of our bones and teeth. It’s also responsible for muscle contractions, coagulation and the transmission of messages between the nerves. Once you turn 40, with the natural decline of bone tissue, calcium consumption becomes even more important since it prevents osteoporosis. That’s when your bones weaken due to loss of bone mass. Milk is a good source of calcium, but it’s very hard to digest and many people are allergic or intolerant to it. Unfortunately, many people still think that milk and its products are the only source of calcium. That’s a big mistake. There are several plants that can provide the necessary amount of calcium that our bodies need. Here are some of these foods: - Sardines - Edamame - Broccoli - Kale - Turnip - Black-eyed peas - White beans - Almonds - Oranges - Sweet potatoes The daily consumption of these foods will guarantee that you get your daily amount of calcium, without having to consume milk, which can be difficult to digest. And even if you like milk, you can reduce your intake and benefit from other sources of calcium. A good option to ensure that you get the recommended daily allowance of calcium—without milk or its derivatives—is by making this flour out of seeds that are rich in calcium. Instructions Crush 200 grams of sesame seeds, 200 grams of sunflower seeds and 200 grams of flaxseed. Preheat the oven and toast the crushed seeds on low heat for 15 minutes. Store in a tightly sealed glass jar. Mix 1 tablespoon per day in juices, yogurts, vitamins, soups, or sprinkle it over salads. Important For calcium to be well absorbed, it needs magnesium. If you consume a lot of calcium and too little magnesium, you can trigger a serious heart problem. Therefore, it’s also very important to consume foods and supplements rich in magnesium.
