How Can I Lessen My Risks of Osteoporosis Naturally?

Calcium & Bone Health & Exercise

Women should be taking between 1,000 mg to 1,500 mg of calcium aspartate, citrate or lactate daily to help improve bone health and help ward off the damaging effects of osteoporosis. BUT keep in mind that IF you are not engaging in some form of weight-bearing exercise such as lifting weights, jump roping, step aerobics, walking or biking - the calcium supplement CANNOT increase bone density alone. Try to do at least two 40 minutes sessions EACH week.
