I just came across some info that made me do a double-take…

Did you know that one in two women and up to one in four men will break a bone in their lifetime due to osteoporosis?!!!

Not only that but HALF of all adults age 50 and older are at risk of breaking a bone due to poor bone health.
Even though those worries might seem a long way off, what you do TODAY can have a big impact on your bone health.

👉Here are some key things you can do to help you stay strong and independent as you get older:
  • Get enough calcium and vitamin D: Talk to your healthcare provider about ways to make sure you get enough daily. 
  • Exercise regularly: Make muscle-strengthening and weight-bearing exercise a non-negotiable. A minimum of two resistance training workouts a week is recommended.
  • Don’t smoke and DO limit alcohol intake: Both can lead to bone loss.
  • Ask your healthcare provider: They can give you info about your risk of getting osteoporosis, and guide you when it comes to getting a bone density test.
If you want help in building healthy habits that support your bones (and the rest of your body, too!), my 28-Day Total Body Transformation may be a great fit!

It focuses on exercise and nutrition that will help you reset your habits in just a few weeks – and lose weight and gain more energy in the process.

Meet Colleen Riddle

 
Like many of my friends, I was raised with a “Clorox” mentality, where the thinking is that it’s not clean unless your lungs burn. I was crazy for everything scented, from candles to personal care products.  If it smelled clean I “automatically” assumed it was in fact “clean” (and good for you). 

I remember bonding with my mom as she would show me how to apply makeup and all the wonderful smelling body sprays and lotions. She even showed me her “secret” for oily skin (baby powder). Little did I know that baby (talcum) powder would later be disclosed as massively toxic.
