Did you know?

"Osteoporosis is less a disease of calcium deficiency than one of protein excess? Studies show that osteoporosis tends to occur in countries where calcium intake via dairy products is highest. Instead, it's better to get your calcium from plant sources such as figs, rice, fortified cereals, nuts, sesame seeds, molasses, dark greens, sea vegetables, and soy foods."
