Do you have strong and healthy bones? Here are some bone building nutritional recommendations:
1. Whey protein- helps build muscle, prevents bone loss and creates new bone tissue
2. Green Tea- the polyphenols in green tea help reduce bone loss associated with hormonal imbalances that occur as you age
3. Dairy Products- Skim milk with fortified vitamin D, has been shown to deliver more calcium than whole milk and the vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium
4. Berries- berries contain vitamin C which nourishes soft tissues, like ligaments and tendons, which help keep your bones flexible and strong
5. Leafy greens- contains the bone building essentials, like calcium, magnesium and vitamin K
6. Fish- like salmon, has significant amounts of vitamin D, which is crucial for calcium absorption
