As scientist from respected institution like NASA can tell you, the only most important way the body needs to stimulate bone building is periodic weight-bearing exercises & stepping. The same view is shared by neurophysiologists of NIH of USA This kind of title is extremely misleading & should be taken with a grain of salt 10 of 11 found this review helpful: Who Knew?, 2006-03-25 I learned a lot about how to keep my ospeopedia from progressing into osteoperosis. Who knew that walking did not help? This book claims that the key to preventing osteoporsis is weight training. The author provides six basic, progressive work-out progams which can be done at home. I was definitely inspired to try her approach to preventing bone loss. 40 of 41 found this review helpful: WHAT YOUR DOCTOR FORGOT TO TELL YOU!!, 2005-07-21 Like many people who are diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis, I recived just about NO information from my doctor on how to improve bone health. It was just -- "take this pill and I'll see you at your annual physical." I was deeply upset that she had no information for me, provided almost no insight, and seemed vastly disinterested in providing any. I went out and looked for books to provide the information I needed. I found this book and couldn't be happier. In conjunction with Gillian Sanson's enlightening book "The Myth of Osteoporisis," this book should be in the hands of everyone who is interested in bone health. This is an absolutely fabulous book! Well laid out, exercises are easy to do, 2 each routines for those with osteoporosis, osteopenia, or no diagnosis of either. A GREAT segment on spinal alignment. This is a MUST HAVE book for every person who is interested in bone health. I liked the fact that although the majority of the exercises show a female demonstrator, her partner in some segments was male, and the demonstrator for spinal alignment is male. Men get osteoporisis, too. Wnderful book!! Highly recommended.
