[quote=Anonymous]13 year old DD has intestinal issues which include a dairy intolerance. Lactose pills have had a diminishing effect, so we suspect there's something else going on. There are so many things she can't eat a lot of - anything rich in fiber, basically, like beans and cruciferous veggies - which greatly reduce her ability to get enough calcium. She hates plant milk, even though I found some with added calcium and vitamin D. She's very small and the pediatrician is worried about her puberty, which is nowhere near happening, and her bone growth. How do your teens get their calcium? Apart from eating sardines all day :-) Do they take a calcium supplement?[/quote]
