Calcium to Phosphorus Ratios in Selected Foods: Grocery List Wherever possible, the following data was collected from the USDA.  The data for items (such as acorns, raw sweet potato, raw pumpkin, etc.) not listed by the USDA are marked with an asterisk (*), and data was collected from Bitelog.com.  All foods, unless otherwise indicated, are listed in their raw form, and all calculations are based on milligrams per one hundred grams.  Foods in red have a very high oxalic acid content (which limits available calcium in the foods themselves) and should be fed sparingly, if at all.
