Bones support our organs and allow freedom of movement, which is why keeping them strong and healthy is vital. Weight-bearing exercises, a balanced, healthy diet and, in some cases, calcium supplementation can all help keep our bones healthy and strong.
Fortunately it is never too late to start strengthening and caring for your bones, and the earlier you start, the better.
Regular exercise strengthens the bones, especially strength-based exercises with weights and other weight-bearing exercises.
