Build Strong Bones

The word osteoporosis means “porous bones”. It is a condition in which bones become thin, weak, and prone to fractures. Bone loss is a consequence of aging. Women are particularly at risk for developing this and it is a serious condition.

Women´s bones start out thinner than men´s, and adverse changes in the levels of estrogens, the female sex hormone, after menopause appear to accelerate bone loss. Some bone loss is normal and doesn´t mean that osteoporosis is inevitable, or even uncontrollable.

After the age of about 50, women can lose up to 10 percent of the outer layers of hard bone and 25 percent of softer, deeper bone. It sets in gradually over years or even decades. For this reason it is more easily preventable then it is treatable.

There are some good strategies to keep in mind including physical activity, such as weight training, walking or resistance training, but the key, most important one would have to be your diet.

Balance Your Hormones

Hormones are chemical messengers produced by the endocrine system. As levels fluctuate, the imbalance can cause symptoms and conditions ranging from mood swings, and fatigue, to gradual bone loss and high cholesterol.

Vitamin C For Healthy Nails?

Eat yogurt, soy milk and soy products for calcium, and cream of wheat, lean meat and poultry for iron. Biotin, a B Vitamin, can increase the thickness of the nail, and can be readily found in cauliflower, lentils, whole grains, and peanut butter. If you find your nails cracking, increase your intake of omega 3´s and omega 6´s, the fatty acids, and a good source of these are primrose and flaxseed oils.
