Bones of Steel

You can have Bones of Steel by learning to take better care of your body through nutrition and an active healthy lifestyle.

I am not asking you to make sacrifices and to endure discomfort and suffering. Healthy eating is fun and does not cost as much as medicine—and pain.

It doesn’t matter where you are or what is your state-of-health—this moment is yours to launch your future. Your health, happiness and vitality can be influenced by the choices that you make in your diet—starting now—right now.

List Of Things To Do For Bones Of Steel

• The doctor cannot give you strong bones. However, the medicines can surely weaken your bones.
• Strong bones are the result of an all-around healthy lifestyle.
• Also, strong bones, good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle are your choice.
• Nutrient-dense foods are your first defense against most of life’s aliments.
• Modern medicines sometimes cause brittle bones—maybe inappropriately used.
• Also, not getting the proper nutrients from your diet, sometimes causes fragile, brittle or weak bones.

Nutrient Dense Foods

Nutrient dense foods will normally supply all the vitamins, minerals and trace elements that are necessary for your body to build and maintain healthy bones.

Organic vegetation that has been raised in good dirt is the best choice. They should be eaten raw when possible. If you can’t spare the time to chew, or if your teeth don’t like all that chewing, there is a wide array of vegetable cutters on the market. Many of these are on the market. (Please see my writing on salad cutters).

You can even juice the hapless little devils although I don’t like the thought. Your teeth, face, tongue and gums need the vigorous massaging of chewing rough vegetables.

Digestion Begins In Your Mouth

The mouth begins digestion. The food mixes with saliva to start the process. Also, The Cleveland Clinic Healthy Diet and Lifestyle cookbook says important combinations of phytonutrients takes place with the chewing.

I don’t like the word “salad” because people tend to think of a salad as Iceberg lettuce with a few pieces of tomato and perhaps an olive thrown in and some commercial dressing slathered on.

Dark green leafy vegetables like kale, spinach, collard greens, mustard greens, broccoli and cabbage are warehouses of the nutrients that you need.

That is why I say eat raw greens with every meal. Furthermore, people who are concerned about the inappropriate mixing of foods don’t need to worry about greens. They digest easily, don’t cause blood sugar spikes and take hours to break down—you won’t be hungry for hours.

Don’t rely on dairy products—not even milk, vitamins, minerals, supplements or special formulas to get the nutrients to keep your bones healthy. Go to the source that has kept us healthy for eons of time.

Only You Can Build Strong Bones Of Steel

Many years ago, at my daddy’s knee, I decided that I would take a spoonful of cod liver oil each morning on an empty stomach. Through the years I have taken many hard hits and my strong bones and cartilage have saved the day. My daddy learned from his old German father, who was the county health inspector.
