Living in Finland in the EU, I am very confused as to why none of the vegan milk products contain added calcium. Children need a certain amount of calcium which they easily get through cows milk. But not so through vegan milk, because it does not naturally contain calcium.

Are there any laws that forbid adding calcium in your country? Is there any other reason as to why oat and soy based milk products don’t get added calcium?

    Up until about 2 years ago there were lots of plant milk producers that added calcium in Germany. Now there is none. I believe the reason is that if they add supplements now, they cannot put “organic” on their milk cartons anymore.
