No matter what age you are, it pays to have healthy bones. Our bones are living and growing throughout our lives and are constantly being renewed with new bone tissue. When we exercise and eat right, bones are built up as more tissue is produced than is lost. Bone loss occurs when more bone tissue is lost than is replaced. Hormones and stress also play a part in the production of bone tissue, but today I want to focus on the nutrients that play a huge part in healthy bones.
