Bone Health

Bone Health = Calcium, right? Yes, but not completely. Calcium is an important building block for bones, but there are many factors that aid in Bone Health. 

• Exercise - Weight bearing exercises are best for building bone. Examples include walking, hiking, climbing stairs and weight training.
• Eat bone building foods like dark leafy greens, salmon, sardines, and broccoli.
• Maintain healthy pH blood levels - eliminate sugar, processed meats and foods, soda, breads and pasta. They can cause excessive acidity in your body which can rob your bones of calcium.
• Taking supplements to build healthy bones.

Calcium is not the only game in town when it comes to bone health, but it is important. The quality of the calcium you use is also critical.
