Continuing on with foods to boost bone health, today's is a little tastier, in my opinion. Today's post is about yogurt and bone health. Not only does yogurt supply calcium but also vitamin D and protein. According to Dr. Jennifer Brown, "A large observational study found that consuming yogurt regularly increases hip bone density and may be protective against hip fractures." Dr. Brown was citing promising research published in the journal Archives of Osteoporosis.
Dr. Brown goes on to say, "Women at risk of osteoporosis should aim to consume one serving of yogurt daily, which is 6 ounces. I recommend Chobani plain Greek yogurt. It's full of calcium and protein but doesn't have added sugars or flavorings."
Below is a picture of Dr. Brown's choice.
