What is the best dose of calcium for a growing girl in age between 10 to 11?

Get from foods: It's most recommended that you get your calcium through foods-well balanced diet rather than a pill, especially if you're only 10-11 yo.

Teen calcium dose: As a result, teenagers from 13 to 18 years need about 1, 300 mg per day, according to the medlineplus. This is 500 mg more than is needed by an 8-year-old and almost 30 percent more than adults need. At the age of 19, recommended calcium intake drops to 1, 000 mg per day.
