Soymilk Calcium Chart

oymilk that has been fortified with calcium is your best choice for getting significant amounts of calcium. Since all soymilk is not fortified, you should read the nutrition information on labels carefully. Use the following chart to help you get a jump start on the right soymilk for you. Remember, it is still wise to read the food label since food companies may reformulate their products.

The daily value for calicum is 1 gram for adults and children age 4 or older. This is equal to 1,000 milligrams. If the Nutrition Facts on a soymilk container states, "Calcium 20 percent," then you know the amount of calicum for one serving of soymilk is 200 milligrams, or 20 percent of the recommended daily value for adults and older children.

For those interested in the full health benefits of soy isoflavones, newer naturally concentrated products are available with much better flavor than retail soymilk products. Because of a patented, natural concentration process, just 1 Revival Soy bar or shake contains the amount of isoflavones found in 6 cups of a typical soymilk. Learn more.

You may also find the composition and nutrient content of selected soyfoods can be found at the USDA Nutrient Database for Standard Reference.
