The principle contributors to osteoporosis are animal proteins - which leach calcium from the bones - sedentary lifestyles with a lack of weight-bearing exercise, alcohol, and tobacco use. Recipes with calcium in the form of green vegetables, beans, peas, and lentils, or, if you prefer, fortified orange juice is the way to go. English research has shown that a teaspoon of honey (take a look at my http://www.recipezaar.com/cookbook.php?bookid=33443 Honey Honey You`ve got me wanting you! cookbook) per day aids calcium utilization and prevents osteoporosis. Essential from age 50 onwards. Flax seed & Soy products is of exceptional benefit" Ground flax seed provides both soluble and insoluble fiber. Fiber is crucial as it carries excess estrogen out of the body. Menopause is a natural process we go through and many of us do without any effects to our daily life styles. Menopause symptoms are less intense on a low fat, high fiber diet. High fat diets increase estrogen production before menopause, and causing the shift at menopause to be some rough ride. The body gets rid of excess estrogens, pulling them out of the blood and sending them into the digestive tract, where fiber carries them away with wastes.
