Healing bones needs more than milk! I would recommend trying to eat a lot of green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale. Also, smoking is bad for healing bones.

Foods high in Calcium, Protein, and vitamins A and D are the best. You are trying to heal a bone and those nutrients will help the bone mend together.

There are no specific foods for broken ribs. But good foods for those with broken bones are high in calcium, such as milk and dairy.

Any food with calcium in it, such as dairy products or broccoli. Also, to help with calcium absorption, you need Vitamin D, so sit in the sun.
