About this ebook
Incidents of bone fractures are on the rise due to the progressive rate of osteoporosis. The cost associated with bone fractures is very high and anticipates doubling within the next three decades. Fifty per cent of all adults older than 50 are at risk of at least a broken bone in their lifetime and should be concerned about their bone health. Older people might say it is age-related. That might be so, but some live their entire lifetime to old age without a broken bone. What is the difference? Why is there a sudden prevalence of osteoporosis? Why are one in two women and one in four men at risk of a broken bone in their lifetime due to osteoporosis?
Your diet and lifestyle have a significant bearing on the fragility of your bones. Specific nutrients in suggested proportion, combination and volume are what you need to ingest daily to optimize your bone health. This book provides the answers as it focuses on the nutrients for bone health, their best food sources and the volume you need to ingest.

Jacquelin F. Grant – born and resides in Jamaica, is a close associate of Dr. B. Daley MB, BS, and has since 1995 after having firsthand experience of health restoration from many ailments including back pains, chronic sinusitis, chronic constipation, allergies, constant nervousness, susceptibility to viral infections and more, with the use of diet and supplements attained what she now consider, good health. She has since embarked on rigorous research with an aim to educate ailing people to good health and others to health maintenance. This she has been doing for more than ten years. Persons who have benefited from her research so far are those diagnosed with cancer, stone formation, diabetes, hypertension, prostatitis, muscle wasting, constipation, chronic headache, acid reflux and more.Interestingly her research has helped many students abroad who sought help on their nutritional assignments via Yahoo Answers. She thought to help her own compatriots and others. Her research is based on finding out the truth about nutrition on the premise that “all that is natural is good to eat”. Her aim is to use her publications to educate as many people as possible, so that they will have the opportunity to, with the use of proper food proportions and supplementation, take control of their health, thus managing the chronic conditions that cannot be cured and cure others.In addition to her nutritional interest she also indulge in a little graphic design, creating print items such as cake boxes (favor box), invitations and programs for weddings. This was her first love before researching nutrition. Later she introduced photography, registering with multiple platforms such as Adobe Stock, Alamy, Dreamstime and Depositphotos that she contributes photos for licensing.

INTRODUCTION
Bones are tissues made of living cells that help them to grow and perform repairs. We were born with approximately 300 soft bones. As we grow older, hard bones replace the soft ones - some fusing with others, reducing our skeletal bone count to 206 by adulthood. The functions of bones include providing structural support, anchorage for muscles, protection for vital organs and marrow, and storage area for minerals. Bone changes are always happening. Youth makes new bones faster than they are lost, thus, producing new growth and density, achieving peak bone mass by the mid-20s to mid-30s. Even though remodelling continues, the tendency is a faster rate of bone loss than gain.
Young people need to build bone density that will serve to keep stronger bones in older years when deterioration is more rapid than re-mineralization. Those paying attention to building dense bones during youth will enjoy stronger bones for most or all of their senior years. Older people whose bones deteriorate more rapidly than are re-mineralized will need to focus on nutrition that fosters efficient re-mineralization. This kind of nutrition will reduce the painful experiences of symptoms associated with advanced skeletal deterioration and bone fracture risk. Physical activities and appropriate nutrients in an adequate volume are essential to reducing the rate at which bones deteriorate. Nutrients for bone production and repair include protein, minerals, and vitamins.
Additionally to promoting blood coagulation, vitamin K is one of several essential nutrients for maintaining healthy bones. Others are calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, manganese and vitamin D. Sodium chloride, vitamin B-complex, vitamin C, zinc, chromium, iron, sulphur and others are indirectly involved in bone production.
BONE HEALTH
Every day body tissues degenerate and need restoration or replacements. Degeneration is a normal process that gives rise to the need for adequate and correct material to perform daily repairs and replacements. Food provides that material in the form of nutrients. Digestive processes denature foods ingested to produce the nutrients required for body repairs. Food nutrients, when combined, produce other compounds that attach to amino acids or proteins to accomplish body processes, repairs, and replacements of damaged or dead tissues.
Like other tissues, bones also experience deterioration. The rate at which bones deteriorate depends on several factors, including age, gender, nutrient consumption, cholesterol level and hours exposed to sunlight. Also, like in the case of other tissues, you need to pay specific attention to bone-related nutrients and sunlight exposure. Concentrating on these factors is extremely important since your bones are your body structure and carry all your weight. Fragile bones lead to disfigurement and easily fracture with even small pressure shifts. If you do not pay special attention to your bone’s requirements, it will just be a matter of time before discovering that they have lost all their density.
Bone deterioration gives no symptoms. However, because of calcium’s involvement in neuromuscular activities, you can know when you are drifting into a
