Healthy bones
By Murray Green
In Canada, November is Osteoporosis Awareness Month. Osteoporosis is when bones become weak. Weak bones break more easily. Nutrition is an important part of bone health, according to Alberta Health Services.
It is important that we take in enough calcium because most of the body’s calcium is stored in bones. You can find calcium in foods such as milk and other dairy products, like cheese or yogurt; fortified plant beverages, like soy or almond beverages; and vegetables, like turnip greens, spinach and broccoli.
Some people do not get enough calcium from food. If you do not eat enough calcium foods, you may need a calcium supplement.
Vitamin D helps to build strong bones by helping the body to absorb calcium and can increase bone strength. We make Vitamin D in our skin from sunlight. Alberta Health Services recommends Albertans take a Vitamin D supplement every day, especially in the winter.
You can find Vitamin D in salmon, tuna, sardines, fortified dairy products and eggs. The amount of Vitamin D in these foods varies.
Protein is another nutrient that helps keep bones strong. Getting enough protein helps to build and repair your bones. It can help you keep or build muscle, which is good for bone health.
You can get more protein in your diet when you include a protein food at each meal, soup or salad.
To learn more about nutrition for bone health, visit ahs.ca/nutrition and search Healthy Bones. BIRTHS

November doesn’t have any afternoons. It’s just morning until 2:00 p.m., and then night. The wife told me to grow out my moustache for Movember and I suggested we do it together. I am now getting a divorce. “OMG, it’s freezing in this house!” – Teens, in room temperature, wearing a tank top, bare feet and shorts I know this is controversial. But I am 100 percent in support of mandatory vacations for everyone and booster vacations every four months. Settle down, School Picture Day Packages. I don’t need a body pillow for $400 with my son’s face embroidered on it. “What do you want for Christmas?” “Hmmm ... lately, I’ve been really into groceries and gas. Utilities are cool, too. Stuff like that.” Do you remember before the internet, that it was thought that the cause of collective stupidity was the lack of access to information? Well … it wasn’t that. I always preferred the English spelling of “diarrhea”, which is “diarrhoea”, because it really looks like you’ve lost control of your vowels. Middle age is putting your hands in your coat pockets hoping to fi nd money, but instead fi nding loose Advil. I’m on a plane and the lunch choices are white meat chicken or German sausage. Unfortunately, I’m seated in the last row. I’m hoping for the breast, but preparing for the wurst. The man who invented the Ferris wheel never did meet the man who invented the merry-go-round. They traveled in different circles. I’m not saying my husband and I are scared of our teenage daughter, but we just rock-paper-scissored to see who has to wake her up. The greatest trick refrigerator manufactures ever pulled was convincing us that the crisper drawer does something special for vegetables. If you identify a UFO as a UFO, then it becomes a FO. Unless, of course, it has landed. Then it’s simply an O. Once married, the woman takes over the entire closet, and the man stores everything he owns in the left cargo pocket of his pants. Don’t leave your kids with really old folks for too long! I asked my little nephew how old he was turning. He said, “If the Lord sees fi t, I’ll be six in May.” The CEO of IKEA has been elected Prime Minister of Sweden. He’s busy assembling his cabinet. Teacher: “Where is your homework, Tommy?” Tommy: “I lost it in a fi ght. Some kid said you weren’t the best teacher at our school.” Babies recognize their mothers’ voices in the womb so they can selectively block it out when they’re older.
A little silver-haired lady calls her neighbour and says, “Please come over here and help me! I have a killer jigsaw puzzle and I can’t fi gure out how to get it started.”
Her neighbour asks, “What is it supposed to be when it’s fi nished?”
The silver-haired lady says, “According to the picture on the box, it’s a rooster.”
Her neighbour decides to go over and help with the puzzle. She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table.
He studies the pieces for a moment, looks at the box, then turns to her and says, “First of all, no matter what we do, we’re not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a rooster.”
He takes her hand and says, “Secondly, I want you to sit down and relax. Let’s have a nice cup of tea, and then,” he says, with a deep sigh, “Let’s put all the Corn Flakes back in the box.”
