What food(besides milk) has high calcium content??
Answers: Eggs, Yogurt, Chesse, and Cottage Cheese. A lot of dairy includes high calcium and since I'm not a fan of milk myself, I choose these alternatives to get a required calcium everyday. Hope this helps.
Orange juice with added calcium. The vitamin C actually helps you absorb the calcium. cool, huh? Better than oyster shells or fish bones for sure. I mean, who eats that? Even a cat will leave the fish bones!
By the way, vitamin C does aid in the absorbtion of calcium. A good place to look for info is the CDC website.

But NOTE, to have calcium Absorb, you also need other nutrients:)
Vitamin D for Calcium Absorption
Vitamin D is crucial to calcium absorption. In fact, it increases calcium absorption by as much as 30% to 80%. Adults should get 400 IUs of vitamin D per day (older adults should receive between 400 and 800).
The easiest and most natural way to get Vitamin D is from exposure to sunlight, which causes the body to manufacture its own. Just 15 minutes a day of summer sun exposure, even if only on the arms, face and hands, will greatly enhance Vitamin D production.
Although there are few food sources of Vitamin D, milk does contain significant amounts. (Fortified with Vitamin D, it contains 100 IUs per 250 ml glass). Foods such as margarine, eggs, chicken livers, salmon, sardines, herring, mackerel, swordfish, and fish oils (halibut and cod liver oils) all contain small amounts.
Minerals and Bone Health
Minerals like manganese, copper, and magnesium are important for bone health as they play a part in bone remodelling.
High-fibre Diets and Calcium Absorption
Many foods that are high in fibre also contain phytate, which inhibits calcium absorption. Wheat bran has been shown to have a significant inhibiting effect and, if used in large quantities, could be detrimental. Many experts believe that the positive effects of fibre far outweigh its negative effect on calcium.
