I am going to be pretty unpopular for saying this, but the kind of calcium that you get from dairy is hard for your body to digest and use.
I think you get a more processable calcium from green leafy vegetables combined with a citrus.
Now I know I do not sound at all like a doctor, but I am paraphrasing what has been said to me over the years by doctors when relatives of mine have expressed concern over my diet, I can't say I listened closely to the reasoning behind why milk isn't that helpful, but I did follow the advice and I'm pretty healthy.
