Calci-yum…
July 21st, 2006 | by Loretta |…would probably be a good name for a children’s calcium supplement or super-fortified food for kids.
Today, for the first time in weeks, I have consciously focused on upping my calcium intake. Before this, I’m sure I’d be luck to have at least 1/3 my calcium requirements.
For those interested in numbers, a woman my age/size needs about 1000 mg of calcium a day. It occurred to me today that the easiest way to figure out how much calcium is in a serving is to look at the nutrition facts and add a zero to the end of x% of calcium listed on it.
I can’t remember the last time I had yogurt, but I figured I should start eating more of it before it expires. So my after-work snack today (no running due to heavy thunderstorms :() was plain yogurt with a drizzle of honey and some pine nuts.
- Plain yogurt
- Honey drizzle
- Pine nuts
Just another idea of how to eat plain yogurt.
