Hi Joyce:
I'd be more concerned about that 1% fat content than the calcium. Switch
to the skim milk and be sure he is taking a multivitamin containing
magnesium. His calcium intake needs to be balanced by at least some
magnesium. If he's taking a Centrum or similar supplement it's likely
enough.
Best wishes for good health!
