[Question] While fully dairy-free mode, how do you guys and gals handle calcium intake?

I’m 2 days into this low-calorie 5-day fast mimicking diet that I like to do at the end of the month. Looking on cronometer, my calcium intake is basically nothing for these days, aside from what you get from a salad with some avocado and a handful of mixed nuts. Over the month, I get calcium from sardines (although, I’m not eating these more than a few cans a week) and dark greens. But even while eating a ton of dark greens, it’s hard to get more than 400-500mg some days.

This is easily remedied with a calcium-carbonate drink like almond milk. I’ve heard some paleo folk recommend these products for the calcium, while others recommend a lot more canned fish, and others yet just allow Ca to stay very low.

While fully dairy-free mode, how do you guys and gals handle calcium intake?
