WEDNESDAY TIP OF THE DAY - OSTEOPOROSIS

The Big Osteoporosis Question!
If you are a regular reader of my Kick Start newsletters you will know I don’t advocate dairy when embarking on Kick Start. Yesterday I was having a conversation with a client who had tests to see if she had osteoporosis. She hasn't got osteoporosis which is great but then we chatted in depth about this subject. She was saying that she drinks lots of milk for calcium. I then asked her where else she got her calcium intake from and she didn't know. I explained that there are other sources eg vegetables and she wasn't aware of this. I went through the talk I give in my KSFL class and she actually said "thank you I have gained a lot from this".  
Another big question I get is usually from women who are approaching menopause, going though it or coming out the other side.
“What About Osteoporosis”
“You are telling me to cut out dairy so where am I getting my calcium”
Its a big concern for many people.
YOU may have Osteoporosis in your family or have friends suffering with it.
Osteoporosis is known as the “silent disease and over 3 million people in the UK have it.
There are approx 300,000 fragility fractures every year.
Who is at risk?
*Menopausal women 
*If you have taken steroids for Asthma over the years
* Family history 
* Smokers 
Those on thyriod meds
Many women are actually lactose intolerant (and don’t realise it) so drinking milk is not going to help. It will cause more issues in the gut, skin problems, brain fog and weight gain
Your Nutrition is KEY and is why Kick Start works so well.
**Focus on eating your greens & vegetables.
You will get more than enough calcium.
**HIIT training is perfect for maintaining strong bones.
**Increase your fish intake
**Get some Vitamin D - get out into the sunlight
Let me know what you think!

At Kick Start we give you the facts and the latest, up-to-date information. Clients come to me wanting to lose weight, but I explain it's not just about weight loss you need to become a food detective and understand your body. Your big rocks need to be in place ie sleep, nutrition, etc if you are not sleeping this won't help with your weight loss. If you are stressed (this is a biggy) you will be gaining weight. We talk about hormones and how that affects you. Kick Start  is completely different to other clubs we look at mind-set, goal setting, meditation and more. I run online programmes and you can join at any time or my 12 Week Programme will be online as well great for those who cannot make it to classes.
