Answer to Question 1

Foods with calcium offer additional benefits that are not available in the supplements. Vitamin D enhances the absorption of calcium, which is not always available in the supplement. Yogurt, sardines, salmon, and cheese are excellent sources of calcium in addition to milk. There are some fortified foods that offer large amounts of calcium, such as orange juice and bread.
