Product Overview

Refuting the myth that osteoporosis affects only women and the elderly, a health expert shows how this debilitating disease can be avoided through exercise, diet, and drug treatment and stresses the importance of his program for people of all ages.

This preventive medicine book contains calorie- specific diets, (1200 calorie, 1400 calorie, etc); exercise regimens meant to help develop bone density; tasty, low calorie recipes for the "Tough Bone" diet, with nutrition information; and simple exercises almost anyone can do. It was written in 1989, so some of the health information might be out-of-date, but the recipes and exercise regimen are a great resource.

As usual, it's crucial for you to check with your doctor before you begin any diet program or health regimen.
