A 13-year-old would require a daily dietary calciuim intake of 1000 to 1500mg/d.

According to the National Osteoporosis foundation daily calcium requirements for children are as follows: Age 1-3yrs - 500mg/d, Age 4-8yrs - 800mg/d, Age 9-18yrs - 1000 to 1500mg/d.

The level 5 review by Tortolani et al. states that adults aged >50 yrs require 1200 to 1500 mg/d of calcium and lactating women require more daily calcium (2000mg per day).
