I'm in the dogbox eh?
I also have had some folks go straight to my Mac's "junk" file.
However if I set a filter on their email address to okay it then that
fixes it. Not sure if your system works the same way. I have mine
set now so anyone in my address book will not be "junked"

So
when I find someone whose emails I want, in the junk file, I just
click them into my address book and that fixes it.
I believe that is quite relevant from what I have read. I have never
been able to do any significant weight bearing exercise, (my sports
being swimming, sailing, canoeing, cycling) and currently am in a
wheelchair - so I have managed good bones without the weight bearing
part, just with diet. My kids also have remarkably strong bones due
to diet. My younger son once fell 25 feet flat onto his back on hard
ground (out of a tree at age 15, and a big guy at 6 foot ten). He did
have three thoracic vertebrae broken clean through but the orthopod
whose office he WALKED into after that fall, said he had never in his
life seen such dense bones, and was in awe of the forces it must have
taken to break them. Anton sinks like a rock when he gets into a pool
(he's now in his 30s and weighs 320 lbs, slim looking big guy! but
quite the bones). Diet can be the be all or the end all for bones:
My mother had the worst osteoporosis and dowager hump I ever saw -
but her idea of a calcium-rich diet was three drops of milk in her
tea and plenty of cream on her scones. Her idea of weight bearing
exercise was walking to the mailbox daily at the end of the driveway.
She was not into spinach or anything green, and she paid the price
for these habits, even though she was small framed at 4 foot 11 in
heels. The calcium supplements her doctor made her take after age
70, did nothing of course.
Good for you! I prefer growing dandelions though many people think I
am nuts.
Probably that depends on how she used the diet principles. If I
remember, Atkins advocates high protein and low carb? That's also
what I eat - but I stress the high antioxidant aspects of that
approach a la Perricone et al. In fact it is my belief that the most
important part of any diet is the antioxidant and thus anti-
inflammatory aspect of it - followed by the need for high animal
protein of good quality. I consider that inflammatory foods are to be
avoided and anti-inflammatory and high antioxidant ones to be
stressed - and that almost automatically gets you to a high protein
and low carb diet - but in what I see as the right way:-)
Namaste,
Irene
