AS women, we are constantly inundated with messages about the importance of bone health. We are told by medical professionals and the health food industry why we need good calcium intake, especially during our adolescent and younger adult years.
Everything that we know tells us that we must have strong and healthy bones in order to prevent osteoporosis in our older age.
But now, there is an even more compelling reason to look after our bone health ? it turns out that strong, healthy bones play a far greater role in our overall health than we had previously realised.
