Answer 1

A big challenge for lactose intolerant is to eat in order to get enough calcium to have healthy bones, but avoid taking lactose (dairy products). There are many ways to go without lactose and get the calcium we need.

To absorb calcium, your body also needs vitamin D. Make sure you consume enough vitamin D.

Here are foods containing lactose-free calcium:

Calcium supplement

Tofu

Sardines

Green vegetables

Salmon

White beans

Fig

Broccoli

Sesame seeds

Orange

Almond
