Calcium Calculator

Are you making the calcium connection? Fill in the number of servings you get from each of these foods over one day. The calculator will automatically multiply the total servings in each group by the milligrams of calcium in each serving. Then it will add up the final numbers to give you your day’s total calcium intake.
