Hi!
The recommendation for calcium is 1000mg/day. But this seems to concern the calcium intake. However the bioavailability of calcium depends a lot on the food eaten. My nutrition estimation indicates that have a daily intake of 950mh/day. But because I follow an ovo-lacto-vegatrian diet, I eat a lot of food with foods containing a considerable amount of inhibitory substances, such as oxalates and phytates.
So I wonder what is the recommendation for bioavailable calcium per day., for a 25 years old woman.
Thanks a lot for your help!
