Hi lybrate-user If you cannot take calcium tablets you can take calcium naturally but before that, you need to have sufficient amount of Vitamin D levels in your body so that the calcium will naturally be absorbed. The recommended levels of vitamin D are 20 nanograms/milliliter to 50 ng/mL. The diet you need to take for joint pains and cramps is as follows: Spinach Bendi Soybeans White beans Foods that are calcium-fortified, such as some orange juice, oatmeal Vitamin D rich foods Foods fortified with vitamin D, like some dairy products, orange juice, soy milk, and cereals Cheese Egg yolks If you do not have nonveg you can take supplementary homeopathic Vitamin D3 (Filcal D3) one tablet once daily on empty stomach.
