One of the criticisms of the elimination diet in the past has been that the lack of Dairy potentially means a shortfall in calcium uptake, especially of concern to those with osteoporosis or who're pregnant or lactating.
But this is not the case at all!
Calcium is abundant and present in many foods.
For Instance:
Spinach
Turnip greens
Mustard greens
Collard greens
Blackstrap molasses
Swiss chard
Yogurt
Kale
Mozzarella cheese
Milk (goat's milk and cow's milk)
Basil, thyme, dill seed, cinnamon, and peppermint leaves
Romaine lettuce
Rhubarb
Celery
Broccoli
Sesame seeds
Fennel
Cabbage
Summer squash
Green beans
Garlic
Tofu
Brussel sprouts
Oranges
Asparagus
Crimini mushrooms
So there's a lot of choice!
Don't forget though, to properly absorb calcium from your foods you need a good supply of vitamin D in your diet (best sources are in fish and eggs and natural sunlight)!
