Increase your calcium the tasty way by adding some lemon juice to home made chicken soup. Vinegar and tomato can be used instead of the lemon. By adding these acidic foods to bone in chicken soup you can increase the amount of calcium by over 60%. The same goes for ribs, use a vinegar barbecue sauce and your calcium intake will rise.
Also increase your vitamin C by not cutting those vegetables in too small of a piece. The surface of the vegetable that is exposed to air will lose the vitamin C, so if you cut into larger pieces you can retain more vitamins.
