Mustard/Collard Green, Kale

[Weldd]

Does anyone have the Ca ratio charts which describe these greens? I used to have it somewhere but I've looked everywhere and can't find it.

Thanks in advance...

To calculate the ratio, all you need is to find the total amount of calcium and phosphorous in a food at any good site. I like http://nutritiondata.self.com/

So... raw kale has 90.5mg of calcium and 37.5mg of phosphorous, so you already know the ratio is between 2 and 3 to 1. I personally always aim to keep the phosphorous number at 1 just to make things easier, so you divide 90.5 by 37.5 to get 2.4:1 for the ratio.

Mustard is 57.7 and 24.1, so 2.4:1
Collards are 52.2 and 3.6 so 14.5:1
