Part whistle-blower book, part bone health bible, Dr. Lani's
No-Nonsense Bone Health Guide is the first consumer book to expose the
shocking difficulty of getting an accurate bone density reading and the
serious risks of long-term use of osteoporosis medications, which are
often prescribed based on inaccurate readings. In addition to this vital
information about bone density testing, Dr. Lani Simpson cuts through
the confusion and inaccuracies surrounding osteoporosis and explains
what readers can do now to build and maintain healthy bones for life.
Dr. Simpson shares her well-rounded, whole-body approach to bone health,
including discussions of digestive health, diet, supplements, exercise,
and how aging affects the bones. Readers learn surprising facts about
what foods and medicines might hurt bone health and which ones will help
build strong bones. Also included is a thorough discussion of calcium
supplementation and how to do it right. Dr. Lani's No-Nonsense Bone
Health Guide is the key to long, healthy, fracture-free golden years.
