Yoga is the ideal exercise prescription for prevention of osteoporosis, for
those already at risk, and for bone regeneration. The 206 bones in the human
body are living, breathing, changing tissue that requires a steady supply of
blood and nutrients and a flow of energy or prana. Recent studies report that
yoga improves the actual congruence of joints, undoing (reversing) the wear and
tear that is responsible for osteoarthritis. This week we focus on Top 10
Reasons Why Yoga Builds Better Bone Strength.
A mother is a truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon
us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with
us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us. 10th May is

10 Reasons Why Yoga Builds Better Bone Strength

Experts aren't sure exactly what causes eating disorders. A mix of factors,
including a person's genes, psychology, and background, may be involved. Dieting
can lead to binge eating disorder, but we don't know whether that alone can
trigger it. Some people may be extra sensitive to food cues, such as smells or
images of food. The disorder can also result from stressful or traumatic life
events, such as the death of a loved one or being teased about weight.
