Advances and Applications of Metamaterials and Metasurfaces Through RF to Optic Spectrum: Healthy You (Materials Science)

Take back control of your bone health to live a full, vibrant life! Ten years after publishing her groundbreaking book Your Bones, a pioneer in science-based, natural medicine, to show you the latest clinically-supported strategies to build strong, healthy bones. Your DEXA bone scan results are back and your doctor is concerned. The options you've been offered (and their potential side effects) leave you scared. Are frail, thinning bones something you have to accept as a natural part of aging? ABSOLUTELY NOT! Jos Baldwin has a message for you: Healthy, vibrant bones are your birthright! And Jos knows firsthand! When diagnosed with osteopenia in her early 40s, she got busy. Working with her husband Joe, a respected naturopathic physician, the couple identified why she was losing bone. Then, he embarked on finding natural approaches to support her health. Fast forward 30 years, and Jos's bone density-at age 72-matches that of a healthy 30-year old! Researchers now understand what causes osteoporosis-and how to stop it. Jos cites hundreds of peer-reviewed research studies to give you a bone-building road map. Bone loss is not inevitable. The problem is that our food supply lacks the nutrients strong bones need. Even worse, our typical diet introduces loads of sugar, salt, and other harmful ingredients that derail bone remodeling. Add to that the tsunami of common chemicals, heavy metals, and other toxins in our environment, and you have the perfect recipe for osteoporosis. The good news is you can avoid or lessen the impact of every single one of these bone-wreckers. Joe, author of The Toxin Solution, reveals simple ways to cleanse your body from the poisons in our water, air, food, and everyday products to encourage our natural healing process. Lara details nutrients our bones need-from vitamin A to zinc-many of which are missing from conventional foods. (Studies show most of us are deficient in at least some of these.) If you've tried everything and are still losing bone, Jos help you pinpoint the exact causes. Learn what lab tests can provide insight on your vitamin status; hormone levels; digestive, parathyroid, kidney, liver, and thyroid function; and markers of bone remodeling. And discover how to overcome bad genetics. (Lara has many negative DNA variations that impact bone.) Plus, Jos Baldwin shares her favorite weight-bearing exercises-barre3, yoga, and Pilates-and how to modify moves to be safe and beneficial for any fitness level. Here's the amazing part! While Healthy Bones Healthy You! is designed to help you strengthen your bones, expect benefits that go well beyond. The things your bones require-an array of nutrients, reduced exposure to harmful chemicals, and weight-bearing exercise-match the needs of your organs to remain healthy and vibrant. When you follow the strategies provided here to build Healthy Bones, you'll also create a Healthy You! Here's a sampling of take-aways: · Media misinformation on the safety and effectiveness of calcium and the often missed vitamin you MUST also take (not just vitamin D) · How chronic diseases contribute to bone deterioration. And what you can do to boost the function of your kidneys, liver, and other organs to encourage bone formation · Strategies to overcome bone loss that runs in your family by addressing common genetic variations · How protein, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals work together to build bone-and the optimal amounts you need of each · Ways to get buy-in from your doctor on natural approaches, using the included peer-reviewed studies · Inspiring stories from some of the women who have followed Lara's protocol
