WElCoMEIt is no secret that calcium plays a vital role in maintaining and

strengthening your bones. But not all types of calcium are equal. The

most efficiently absorbed calcium is organic, derived from natural

wholesome foods.

With these delicious calcium-rich recipes you can boost your

organic calcium intake without the unhealthful side effects of milk

and unfermented dairy products. The unique and unconventional

vegetables used in this book can be found quite easily in your

supermarket’s produce section. You will discover that as you expand

your culinary horizons, you’ll also be helping your bones become

strong and healthy.

This handbook contains the very best of my calcium-rich recipes,

comprised of the most wholesome ingredients. And to make your

bone-building endeavor even easier, I’ve given you the approximate

calcium content per serving for each one. Thanks to icons placed next

to the recipe name, you can easily know if it is at the ideal 80/20 pH

balance, if it needs additional alkalizing foods to reach the perfect acid/

alkaline ratio, or if it is 100% alkalizing.

And these are the two icons:
