My logic on calcium was completely flawed! It is apparently bound to casein (milk protein) and lower fat milk has more protein molecules... thus more calcium even when strained. That will teach me to try and correct something before actually getting the facts - what a smart*$% I can be sometimes ;) Sorry!!!
No worries. We love the input we get from our readers; none of us can know everything. "It takes a village" to figure out whether you lose the calcium when you drain yogurt! You prompted me to go online and do some research, and I found out a lot about protein and minerals, but not calcium - so thanks for coming up with the answer. Cheers- PJH
