There are several ways to get enough calcium without drinking milk. Adults are advised to consume 1,000 to 1,200 milligrams of the mineral daily for bone health, muscle function and nerve signaling. Other dairy products such as yogurt and cheese also contain calcium, as do nondairy milks fortified with calcium and canned fish with bones such as salmon or sardines.

Not a milk drinker? Not a problem. There are still expert-approved ways to get calcium in your diet from sources you may not know contain the bone-supporting mineral.
