This article from Dr. Mark Hyman has little to do with osteoporosis. However, I just think it is interesting that the article recognizes that the same disease or condition may result from completely different causes. Dr. Hyman believes that the best approach to alleviating an illness is to treat the causes, rather than merely treating the symptoms. With osteoporosis, “treating the causes” that usually means addressing a too-acid diet, inadequate exercise, lack of sunshine, and excessive stress, in order to build stronger bones.
If you or someone you love suffers from migraines, you may find Dr. Hyman’s article helpful. Here’s the link:

I don’t know about you, but it was h-a-r-d for me to give up forbidden foods. It took me a year to give up Diet Coke! Even when I was able to leave behind foods I craved, I held onto a ton of resentment, crying in pillow about how unfair it was the “other people” got to eat what they wanted and I didn’t!
Then I discovered a sensational secret: Using an “instead of” made the process easy, creative, and downright fun!
Here’s how it works. Rather than giving up an item, I replaced it with something better!
“Instead of” giving up frying mushrooms and onions, I learned to saute’ them in olive oil and beef broth.
“Instead of” giving up milk, which is low acid-forming, I replaced it with unsweetened almond milk, which is low alkaline-forming.
Surprisingly, I no longer felt deprived because I didn’t leave a hole in my diet! Instead, I filled the hole with something even better!
Be on the watch for more “Instead of” articles coming soon…on OsteoDiet.com.

Lately we’ve been hearing about Atelvia advertised on TV commercials. It supposed to be “better” because it has a special coating, which eliminates the fasting requirements applicable to the earlier drugs. However, Atelvia has all the side effects of the other bisphonate drugs. What side effects? Just read this review of Atelvia by Vivian Goldschmidt, M.A., of SaveOurBones.com by clicking on this link: http://saveourbones.com/atelvia-review/.
On the other hand, deciding to re-build bones naturally through an alkaline diet, weight-bearing exercise, daily sunshine, and restorative sleep has only one side effect: improved health!
