Dairy products are good sources of calcium. An 8-ounce glass of milk contains about 300 mg of calcium. Two slices of firm cheeses, such as American, Swiss, cheddar or mozzarella have about as much calcium as a glass of milk.Softer cheeses, like cottage cheese, most often contain 1/3 to 1/2 this amount of calcium per serving.Other calcium-rich foods are yogurt, salmon, tofu, almonds (100 mg in a 2-ounce serving), and beans. Also, many foods such as orange juice and soy milk come in calcium fortified forms.The average American daily diet contains about 200 mg of calcium in non-dairy food.ther calcium-rich foods are yogurt, salmon, tofu, almonds (100 mg in a 2-ounce serving), and beans.

Most non-dairy milks provide 50 percent more calcium than non-dairy milk. Thatâs plenty of calcium to help you meet your daily needs in just 8 ounces. Not too shabby, right? The best part is, calcium from non-dairy sources actually provide more calcium than dairy milk that leaches calcium from the bones. Dairy can lead to osteoporosis, and calcium is poorly absorbed because milk is so acidic to the body.
