YOURE NEVER TOO OLD OR TOO YOUNG

TO IMPROVE YOUR BONE HEALTH.

During your day, did you stand up, sit down,

walk up or down stairs, or reach for something?

If you did any of those things, did you take a

moment to thank your bones? Without them,

youd be a puddle of water and soft tissue with

no place to go!

Thanking your bones by taking great care of

them will benet you throughout your entire

life. Bone health needs are different through

the ages, and it is necessary to adapt your diet

to promote and maintain bone growth in your

20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond.
