Calcium
:huh: On the tracker under the nutrients chart my goal is listed as "100" per day. I know the daily recommended amount of calcium for women over 50 is 1200 mg per day. Does anyone know how many milligrams "100" per day is on MFP? I'm not sure how it is measured here.

I am not sure. I assume that by 100% they meant 1000mg which is what a woman my age needs per government standards. You might want to pose this question in the technical area.0

100% on MFP = 1,000mg which is the US RDA. I generally shoot for 150%.0
