Is it 'permitted' to put a post here that explains why so many more Americans/usa/ break a bone when they fall down than perhaps many of the elderly men and women who live far enough south of the border to maintain an un-usa diet ?
The information may be as important as staying active is, and results in stronger bones totally contrary to advertising the corporations have on television and thru education and medical clinics in the usa.
If not,
or even if just for grins, delete this post or move it as desired.
If it is okay, I'll be back, Lord Willing, to post only a little bit more info.
