Do you know this?
It pisses me off that the tube is filled with commercials about the drugs they have for things, but a 30 second blurb on something that may be preventable like osteoporosis would help more people or at least give them the knowledge adn let them make the choices they need to eat or drink (or not eat and drink) things and also walk or excercise.

I never knew this until radiation treatment put me into menopause. Needing to research quick, that is when I discovered the problem on bones.

Susun weed suggests yogurt and greens for best bone building nutrients.
I jsut got to this part tho so I have more to learn on it.

I thought
this was some good info, from the national osteoporosis foundation.

NOF also recommends a minimum of 1,000 milligrams of calcium daily from ages 19 through 50, increasing to 1,200 milligrams daily after age 50. This can be in the form of calcium supplements, or via natural sources such as low-fat dairy products including fortified skim milk, yogurt, and even ice cream.

To aid in calcium absorption NOF also suggests 400 to 800 international units of vitamin D daily. You can also try 15 minutes of sun exposure three times a week to help the body manufacture its own vitamin D.

And because experts say bone responds to stres by building more bone, NOF reminds us that exercise is also key to keeping bones strong. They recommend weight-bearing workouts such as walking, dancing or stair climbing, and resistance training, several times a week.
