Calcium Rich Food #9: Firm Tofu

Tofu is generally regarded as a high calcium food. The levels of calcium are dependent on the quality of the coagulant used. A superior coagulant is naturally occurring and called calcium sulfate, known as gypsum. This is used in traditional tofu.

One cup of tofu can add 860mg of calcium to your diet. That’s a great amount! Add tofu to stir fry veggies or tofu into a smoothie for a flavorless addition of calcium and protein. It contains 10 grams of protein per half a cup as well. A good quality tofu might be the right source of calcium if you are following a vegan diet.
