Osteoporosis is a weakening of the bone structure that results in a slow, insidious loss of calcium. In the United States, osteoporosis has reached epidemic proportions. Up until now, the only preventive measure that scientists have come up with is to increase our daily intake of calcium. In this startling new book, Dr. Nancy Appleton has uncovered a way to prevent osteoporosis without costly drugs, extensive supplements, and expensive treatments. Instead of treating the loss of calcium, she looks at the cause - why calcium is drawn from the bone in the first place. By understanding the principle of body chemistry balance, Dr. Appleton shows us what we do to bring on calcium loss and what we can do to correct the problem.
Here is Dr. Appleton's breakthrough theory and research, and her guidelines for preventing osteoporosis, written in easy-to-understand language. She offers a sensible food plan to balance the body's chemistry, as well as many delicious recipes to help the reader follow her program.
