Answer 2

Explanation:

A calcium-rich diet (including dairy, nuts, leafy greens and fish) helps to build and protect your bones. Calcium is a mineral that is necessary for life. In addition to building bones and keeping them healthy, calcium enables our blood to clot, our muscles to contract, and our heart to beat. The body needs calcium to maintain strong bones and to carry out many important functions. Almost all calcium is stored in bones and teeth, where it supports their structure and hardness. The body also needs calcium for muscles to move and for nerves to carry messages between the brain and every body part.

Food items rich in calcium are -

Cheese.

Yogurt.

Milk.

Sardines.

Dark leafy greens like spinach, kale, turnips, and collard greens.

Fortified cereals such as Total, Raisin Bran, Corn Flakes (They have a lot of calcium in one serving.)
