  How does one actually acquire the much needed calcium of 1000mg a day without milk? Supplements? Are there any alternatives?
  
  I've been hearing bad things about milk recently regarding....hormones....anti-biotics etc. and i was considering removing it from my diet but i fear for my calcium intake.....

  Mention calcium and the first thing that comes to most people's mind is milk.
  
  Sardines and salmon are one of them.I believe you also need Vitamin D to work hand in hand with calcium.
