HOT TIP: How to Build Stronger Bones

As we age, we need to pay attention to our bone strength. Weight-bearing exercise is a must. Here’s how to add the right bone-building nutrients to your diet:

HOT TIP: New research from Geneva University Hospitals show that your best chance of building strong bones is a combination of Vitamin D (600 IU/day), calcium (1000 mg), protein (50 g/day) and inorganic phosphate (700 mg/day).
