Are you concerned about your bone health? Have you been told you have osteopenia or osteoporosis? Perhaps, you are taking calcium and vitamin D and you are doing weight bearing exercises. What else can you do? Four words: Eat prunes and almonds! A study showed eating 5 t0 6 prunes per day stimulated bone formation cells called osteoblasts and improved bone mineral density. Another study showed that the serum taken from people who ate 40 almonds a day had a 20% decrease effects on osteoclast activity. Osteoclasts are types of cells that break down the bone matrix. So, perhaps an almond and prune trail mix for bone health?
