BONE HEALTH/ SUPPLEMENTS FOR BONE HEALTH
Bone Health defined as----
We cannot completely prevent this gradual loss of bone density, but we can retard it. The stronger our bone density inthe early years of life, the better we can withstand the onset of bone loss later in life. Men & Women must not wait until old age to start taking bone support supplements . Supplements play a role in preventing & treating osteoporosis. You mist not take calcium alone bone is not just calcium. Vitamin D, Vitamin K, Magnesium, Boron, Strontium, Silica, Zinc, & copper are essential nutrients, Soy isoflavones are beneficial. The Journal of Clinical Nutrition , study showed increased soy isoflavone consumption from diet or supplements for 6 months, boosts Bone mineral density in the spine by almost one gram in menopausal women. This was based on a meta-analysis of 10 randomised controlled trials.

BONE HEALTH/ SUPPLEMENTS FOR BONE HEALTH
Bone is living tissue. It contains both an organic protein matrix (30 percent) and various minerals (70) percent. Bone is in a constant state of flux. Cells known as Osteoblasts construct Bone Matrix and fill it with Calcium. At the same time, cells called Osteoclasts work just as busily to tear down and resorb the bone. This fine balance is regulated by many factors including systemic hormone and Cytokines. The bodys main concern is to maintain calcium narrow range, not to maintain bone mass. If calcium levels in the bone fall to low, the body will actually pull calcium from bone to fill the need. Bone mass reaches its peak by the middle of the third decade of life and plateaus for about 10 years. During this time bone turnover remains relatively constant, meaning bone formulation approximately equals bone resorption.
As our bodies age, this balance is lost. As the relative hormone levels shift in midlife-- more drastically in women than in men --- the Osteoclasts gain the upper hand, and bone mass begins dwindling. Bone is being lost by the time women reach menopause, the rate of loss increase by tenfold during the first six years after menopause.

OSTEOARTHRITIS / OSTEOPOROSIS.
Osteoarthritis= Is a degenerate joint condition that is characterized by the breakdown of articular cartilage (cartilage within the joint)>
Osteoporosis = A condition of increased bone fragility and susceptibilty to bone fracture due to a loss of bone
BMD= bone mineral density.
Wound healing is a complex process that requires increased production of collagen, manganese is required for the activation of Prolidase an enzyme that functions to provide the amino acid Proline for collagen formation in human skin cells.

COCHRANE BONE, JOINT& MUSCLE TRAUMA GROUP/ www.bjmtg.cochrane.org
The Cochrane Collaboration, International Organisation helps people make well informed decisions about healthcare see Cochrane Library.
The Cochrane Bone Joint & Muscle Trauma Group aims to produce systamatic reviews of interventions, tested within randomized controlled trials & clinical trials for primary prevention of fractures, dislocations, soft tissue injuries of appendicular skelton & associated soft tissues.
Managment ( treatment & rehabilitation) of patients with fractures, dislocations, & soft tissue injuries of the appendicular skelton& associated soft tissues. / University of Manchester UK.

D.V.T. DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS----
In 2001 The Lancet estimates that 1 million cases of DVT related to air travel occur in U.S.A. & That 100,000 of these cases RESULT IN DEATH.
The Lancet, Sept, 8 2001 p838
The above are amazing findings I am going to explore this article in greater depth.

FOODS THAT REDUCE INFLAMMATION
Omega - 3 fatty acids, found in cold water fish that are caught in the wild. The best natural inflamation fighters, best of the omega-3. MACKEREL, ANCHOVIES, HERRING, SALMON, SARDINES, LAKE TROUT, ATLANTIC STURGEON, AND TUNA are a good source of epa, do not deep fry, Eat 2 to 5 fish meals per week is recommended.
