Calcium builds and maintains bone, and it deserves deliberate attention on a plant-based diet because requirements are substantial and not every green vegetable delivers what its label of "calcium-rich" suggests. The encouraging part: fortified plant foods, calcium-set tofu, and the right greens make target intakes entirely reachable, and dietetic associations confirm that well-planned vegan diets support bone health across the lifespan.
