Wellness Wednesday!

It's Wellness Wednesday! This Wednesday we have a short blurb about wellness and calcium from our Nutritionist, Libbey Bartel of Open Palate Holistic Nutrition! 

"Many of the world’s population cannot digest milk. In fact, some researchers think that being able to digest milk beyond infancy is abnormal, rather than the other way round. Milk is also a common allergen that can trigger inflammatory responses, such as stomach distress, constipation, diarrhea, skin rashes, acne, hives and breathing difficulties. 

Apart from obvious milk products like butter and cheese, foods with hidden dairy content include breads, cookies, crackers, cakes, cream sauces and boxed cereals. One of the biggest questions I hear is- If I don’t drink milk how will I meet my calcium requirements?

Milk and yogurt are not the only foods that provide dietary calcium; collard greens, tofu, rhubarb and canned salmon also are good sources. Veggies, nuts and seeds contain calcium that can help people meet daily requirements.Check out the chart and compare to 1 glass of milk which contains 276 mg of calcium."
