February 16, 2007, Newsletter Issue #90: Calcium For Strong Bones
Tip of the Week
Women need the daily value of about 1,000-mg. of calcium until they reach menopause. Then it needs to be increased to 1,500-mg. per day. There are some key sources of calcium, which should be included in a woman's diet. Low-fat dairy products like skim milk, are a prime source of calcium, partly because they are also generally fortified with vitamin D, which helps the body absorb calcium. But milk is not the only proven or the richest-source of this mineral. Plain, low-fat yogurt, offers 448 mg. per cup, where as non-fat milk offer just 301 mg. Other good sources include, fortified orange juice, broccoli, and other leafy green vegetables, and canned sardines or salmon with bones.
Green Tea is rich in fluoride, thereby a great way to promote strong bones and teeth. Especially helpful in fighting bad breath. Drink Green Tea Plus daily for healthy bones and teeth along with potent antioxidants for better ´overall´ health.
