nice dense bones
Nice dense bones. You know you want ‘em.
Keep doing your weight-bearing exercise, get your dietary calcium (through low-fat dairy if you can tolerate it, otherwise through almonds, kale, broccoli, bok choy, soybeans, etc.) and your vitamin D, and get a bone-density test if you’re female and approaching or past menopause.
The National Osteoporosis Foundation has some good info on prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, and I just discovered that you can download pdf versions of its quarterly publication. There’s some good info there. On the same page, you can sign up for NOF’s bone-health updates via e-mail.
