The Bone-Building Solution

Posted by Nadine Bells

I've been reading a book that has been radically challenging the way I think about what I eat. I've been a pretty healthy eater for years, but have never really considered the acid/alkaline balance in my body. And while I'm quite young, the fact that I have low bone density (get tested, ladies) is both alarming and an awesome call for proactive steps.

The Bone-Building Solution

How anyone can have healthy bones–at any age.

Osteoporosis is a major health threat already affecting an estimated 44 million Americans–yet optimal bone health is still within reach. The Bone-Builder Breakthrough is a comprehensive guide to building bone health, providing advice for the teenage years through the sixties and beyond on the prevention and reversing of osteopenia and osteoporosis. Based on recommendations in the 2005 Surgeon General’s Report, this accessible, upbeat guide offers exciting news on hidden risk factors and guidance on essential supplements, proper vertical exercise, nutrition, and the important relationship between healthy bones and a healthy heart.

I highly recommend the book's Ultimate Breakfast Protein Power Shake Recipe. In a matter of moments, I became the kind of girl who adds flax seeds to her diet and takes fish-oil supplements. Anything for my lovely bones.
