By age 80, three-quarters of all American women have osteoporosis. That means their bones are no longer strong enough to support the weight of the moving body. If anyone tells you this loss of bone is inevitable - don't believe them. This book covers the scientific evidence showing that you can have strong bones for life. For the past 32 years Dr. Michael Colgan and the Colgan Institute have provided nutrition and training programs for Olympic and elite athletes worldwide. Dr. Colganis one of the world's most popular scientific experts in the fields of anti-aging medicine, nutrition, and exercise.
