A: Although a nutritional superstar, spinach shouldn't be counted as a calcium source, according to the NOR Reason: Your body can't absorb calcium well from spinach and other foods high in oxalates. Special high-protein diets or highsodium foods can cause your body to lose calcium.
Also watch out for heavy alcohol consumption and drinking more than three cups of coffee daily. Wheat bran, because of its high phytate levels, appears to reduce calcium absorption from foods eaten at the same time.
