After examining all the available nutritional studies and evidence, Dr. John McDougall<\/span><\/span><\/a> concludes:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 “The primary cause of osteoporosis is the high-protein diet most Americans consume today. As one leading researcher in this area said, ‘eating a high-protein diet is like pouring acid rain on your bones.’ Remarkably enough, both clinical and population studies show that milk-drinkers tend to have more bone breaks than people who consume milk infrequently or not at all. For the dairy industry to lull unsuspecting women and children into complacency by telling them to be sure to drink more milk so that their bones will be strong may make good business sense, but it does the consumer a grave disservice..<\/em><\/p>\n

Much of the world’s population does not consume cow’s milk, and yet most of the world does not experience the high rates of osteoporosis found in the West<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em> <\/em>In some Asian countries, for example, where consumption of dairy foods is low, fracture rates are far lower than they are in the United States and in Scandinavian countries, where consumption of dairy products is high\u2026”<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 “Milk, it now seems clear, is not the solution to poor bone density. To the contrary, it’s part of the problem..”<\/em>
\n\u2014 Charles Attwood M. D., F. A. A. P. <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\u2022 “The association between the intake of animal protein and fracture rates appears to be as strong as the association between cigarette smoking and lung cancer”<\/em>
\n\u2014 T. Colin Campbell Ph. D. author of The China Study<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\u2022 “It is hard to turn on the television without hearing commercials suggesting that milk promotes strong bones. The commercials do not point out that only 30 percent of milk’s calcium is absorbed by the body or that osteoporosis is common among milk drinkers. Nor do they help you correct the real causes of bone loss..”<\/em>
\n\u2014 Doctor Neal Barnard, Founder and president Physicians for Responsible Medicine<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

So what can I do to maintain strong bones?<\/strong><\/span>
\nAlthough the evidence is strong that dairy-product consumption doesn’t prevent osteoporosis, simply eliminating dairy products does not ensure strong bones \u2014 It pays to put some thought into keeping your bones healthy \u2014 Studies have shown that the following factors are helpful in building and maintaining strong bones:<\/p>\n

Osteoarthritis: Nutritional Considerations<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 The role for nutrition in osteoarthritis is mainly related to the effects of diet on body weight. Obesity increases the risk for osteoarthritis of the hip, knee, and possibly the joints of the hand<\/strong> Weight loss was found to significantly improve pain and function in individuals with osteoarthritis. Some evidence suggests that a reduction in body fat, independent of body weight, may help relieve symptoms. A low\u2013fat, high\u2013fiber diet in combination with exercise prevents weight gain, and may also prove useful in treatment.. See how to lose weight<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\u2022 The combination of glucosamine sulfate (1500 milligrams a day) and chondroitin sulfate (1200 milligrams a day) may improve symptoms<\/strong> Early studies suggested that these supplements improve symptoms in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Subsequent controlled trials, however, have been less favorable. At this time, further study is necessary..<\/p>\n

\u2022 Reducing serum cholesterol may decrease osteoarthritis risk<\/strong> Elevated serum cholesterol was independently associated with osteoarthritis in two studies<\/p>\n

\u2022 Vitamin D may play a role in osteoarthritis<\/strong> Individuals with lower blood levels of vitamin D appear to have greater risk for progression of osteoarthritis. If you don’t spend any time in the sun (about 15 minutes on the face and arms each day is enough), be sure to take a supplement or eat fortified foods..<\/p>\n

\u2022 Ginger may provide significant pain relief for osteoarthritis patients<\/strong> Effective doses range from 170 milligrams ginger extract three times per day to 250 milligrams four times per day..<\/p>\n

\u2022 Getting plenty of exercise. Studies have concluded that physical exercise is the key to building strong bones (it’s more important than any other factor)<\/strong> For example, a study published in the British Medical Journal that followed 1,400 men and women over a 15-year period found that exercise may be the best protection against hip fractures and that “reduced intake of dietary calcium does not seem to be a risk factor.” And Penn State University researchers found that bone density is significantly affected by how much exercise girls get during their teen years, when 40 to 50 percent of their skeletal mass is formed..<\/p>\n

\u2022 Eliminating animal protein<\/strong> \u2014 For a variety of reasons, animal protein causes severe bone deterioration<\/p>\n

\u2022 Limiting salt intake<\/strong> \u2014 Sodium leaches calcium out of the bones<\/p>\n

\u2022 Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables<\/strong> \u2014 They contain vitamin C, which is essential for building collagen, the underlying bonematrix<\/p>\n

\u2022 Not smoking<\/strong> \u2014 Studies have shown that women who smoke one pack of cigarettes a day have 5 to 10 percent less bone density at menopause than nonsmokers<\/p>\n

Add my new friend the bone specialist, and watch video interviews of him<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Many of my friends know sweet, gentle friend Doctor Tatinha, \u10e6.\u2665 Dr. MTKvis \u2665. \u10e6 <\/a> the cardiologist, (which is a heart specialist physician)<\/em><\/p>\n

However i would like to introduce you to a new myspace friend, he won’t be here too much as his busy schedule of traveling and giving lectures keeps him busy! However James<\/a> is a bone specialist! (A retired osteopath who is now a vegan bodybuilder) i highly recommend you take a few minutes to listen to this two brief interviews with him on:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

http:\/\/www. veggievision. co. uk\/viewer. htm<\/a> TV<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

i am very excited about what he had to say!<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

From James’s<\/a> site:<\/span><\/p>\n

Hi, my name is James. I am a retired spinal specialist and I live on the South coast of the UK. I have been vegan for most of my life and I do not – nor have I ever – suffered from any deficiencies, in fact I am extremely fit and healthy and feel no need for supplements..<\/p>\n

Firstly I” would like to talk about nutrition, as I am heavily involved in this field. The vegan diet is without question the ultimate diet for health, fitness, energy and ethics. It is the only truly cruelty-free diet and is the diet of world champion athletes. Anyone who tells you that eating animal protein is good for you knows absolutely nothing about the human body..<\/em><\/p>\n

Shame on those doctors, nutritionists and personal trainers who advise their clients and patients to eat chicken, fish and dairy products – they let down their entire profession by failing to gain independent nutritional knowledge..<\/em><\/p>\n

I lecture in the US and do talks on nutrition in the UK in Schools, Colleges and Universities. I also lecture to bodybuilders on the great importance of protein – the soya bean has no rival, containing 40% protein, 0% cholesterol & 0% saturated animal fats, it is readily absorbed and contains all the amino acids needed for bodybuilding..<\/em><\/p>\n

Animal proteins are extremely high in cholesterol and saturated fat, which should play no part in a bodybuilder’s diet, nor any kind of athlete (or person in general), as this is extremely detrimental for a healthy diet..<\/p>\n

To summarise, the worst form of protein a bodybuilder can consume is the flesh of animals or the milk of a cow. If any bodybuilders are looking for an alternative protein powder in the UK – Holland and Barrett’s own brand Soya Isolate is superb and should be recommended for any athlete..<\/p>\n

I put my physique down to my diet. I have a high protein diet, which is mainly soya and other plant proteins; eg: tofu, soya milk, soya yoghurt, soya mince, legumes, plus all fruits and vegetables, nut, berries, seeds etc…<\/p>\n

I have seen bodybuilders who have trained on a meat and dairy diet and then changed to a vegan diet and the achievements have been extreme – strength gains, as well as muscular development, due to consuming a better quality of protein. The health benefits are also just as gratifying i.e.: loss of body fat, gains in energy and better skin tone..<\/p>\n

<\/em><\/em><\/em>To conclude, there is no opposition to the quality of soya protein, especially relating to a bodybuilder..”<\/em><\/p>\n

Finally got a chance to watch this video and it is very good except for recommending fish oil! Which is often baby seal oil, other reasons to avoid fish oil below:<\/p>\n

As my gentle friend Doctor Tatinha, \u10e6.\u2665 Dr. MTKvis \u2665. \u10e6 <\/a> the cardiologist, (heart specialist physician)<\/em> said in “Message from a Physician Cholesterol and Atherosclerosis”:<\/strong><\/p>\n

She advises being completely vegan, “Although fish and fish-oil capsules have been promoted for their omega-3 fatty acids as a means of lowering heart-disease risk, these acids have highly unstable molecules that decompose quickly and unleash free radicals. Free radicals are damaging to living tissues and cells, but that damage can be prevented by antioxidants. The kinds of fatty acids found in vegetables, fruits, and beans lower free-radical activity while increasing antioxidant levels. When you choose vegetarian foods, you naturally and safely lower your risk for heart disease and other serious illnesses.. You get twice the level of protection every time you eat”<\/em><\/p>\n
