Walnuts and flaxseeds are loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, while the potassium found in peanuts and almonds can protect against loss of calcium in urine. As a whole, nuts provide protein and nutrients that play a supportive role in building strong bones.

Fortified Foods
Love your cereal in the morning? Good choice -- cereals are packed with calcium. Wash that down with fortified milk or orange juice, and you'll give your body a great start to the day. Fortified foods are a good way to fill the calcium gaps in your diet.

Spread your calcium intake over the day -- the body can only absorb 500 to 600 milligrams at a time. Vitamin D facilitates the absorption of calcium, so get some sunshine - it's is the best way to boost Vitamin D.
