You might want to browse through this site:
http://www.nutritiondata.com/ ... you can look up just about every food you might want to consume and see exactly what's in it ... calories, carb/fat/protein content, vitamins & minerals, etc. etc.
fyi, if you don't tolerate tablets/pills, you can purchase calcium in powder form and add it to drinks, cereal, etc.
