Title Slide: Welcome to the spoken tutorial on calcium rich vegetarian recipes
Image: Collage of food sources of calcium

Image: Collage of cooking techniques

Image: Collage of calcium rich vegetarian recipes

Image: Calcium content of these recipes


In this tutorial, we will learn about:

1. Food sources of calcium

2. Cooking techniques to enhance calcium absorption

3. Preparation of calcium rich vegetarian recipes

4. Calcium content of these recipes


Image: Calcium in the body

Image: Calcium in bones and teeth

Image: Calcium in blood

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in our body.

99% of the body’s calcium is found in bones and teeth.

The remaining 1% is present in the blood.

Image: Collage of role of calcium The role of calcium in our body has been explained in another tutorial.

Please visit our website for these tutorials.

Image: Calcium rich food at different age groups

Image: Collage of dairy products

Image: Collage of nuts and seeds

Image: Collage of beans and leafy vegetables

Adequate intake of calcium through diet is necessary from an early age.

Dairy products are excellent sources of calcium.

This includes milk, curd, paneer (unsalted Indian cheese), cheese and khoa (thickened whole milk).

Calcium is also present in some nuts, seeds, legumes and green leafy vegetables.

Image: Collage of soaking, sprouting and fermentation

Image: Collage of boiling, roasting and sauteing


Along with a calcium rich diet, calcium absorption by the body is also important.

Calcium absorption can be enhanced using soaking, sprouting and fermentation.

Even boiling, roasting and other cooking techniques will help.
