is there any other way to get some good paleo calcium?Fish bones, softer parts of mammal bones, egg shells, seaweeds, nuts and seeds, figs, broccoli, kale, amaranth, collards, roselle, oranges, olives.
thanks
there have been studies done on low-calcium-eating bantu women who had very strong bones.As I remember they ate about 200-250 mg of calcium a day which is 20% of RDA
Simply put, strong bones requires small amounts of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and vitamin D. As long as you have all these, it`s fine.Vitamin D is very important, so we should be in the sun very often. Besides, raw cod liver oil, fatty wild fish, egg yolks are a good source of this vitamin.
In water?!Very low bioavailability
T'would seem people with damage to thier nervous system may benefit from alil extra calcium.Utter b*ll*cks, I'm afraid. The trouble with consuming calcium via eggs or dairy is that both contain extremely high calcium:magnesium ratios. A too high calcium:magnesium ratio in the diet(normal palaeo ratio is between 1:1 and 1:2) inevitably leads to blocking of uptake of magnesium into the body thus leading to magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is desperately needed for strong bones, and especially the nervous system.

Suck up them eggs :) (or dairy if you perfer it)

Whats the best source of magnesium in your opinion?
Whats the best source of magnesium in your opinion?Re animal products - mackerel, mollusks and horse meat are quite good source of magnesiuim.
Re animal products - mackerel, mollusks and horse meat are quite good source of magnesiuim.thank you
Besides - nuts and seeds.
Well I was planning on eating 2-3 eggs daily? Is this okay if I up my magnesium intake? Whats the best source of magnesium in your opinion?Eggs have a 4:1 ratio of calcium:magnesium not as bad as dairy with well up to 12:1 calcium:magnesium ratio, depending on type of dairy. 2-3 raw eggs a day shouldn't be a problem re this as long as you're also eating lots of muscle-meats/organs/seafood which has plenty of magnesium in it. Best source of magnesium technically is raw pumpkin seeds but they're largely tasteless - some pders eat them a lot if consuming a lot of raw dairy.
It should be noted that in palaeo times eggs were rarely available as birds only laid eggs seasonally and the eggs would have been not too easy to find being in nests up trees etc. So , IMO, raw eggs should be only rarely eaten.Yah I actually know this unfortunately I am very limited on paleo animal sources atm.
