Teenage Girls Urged to Drink Milk

This report mentioned about the Osteoporosis prevention is by drinking Milk.

Women suffer Osteoporasis in later life. Also due to the body nature & the reproductive cycle that women have to goes through in life.

The other research I found is to replennish Calcium by drinking Bone Soup.

According to the "I-Medicine Sutra", Pig bone have the high calcium & it contents the calcium more near to our human bone characteristic. Also its collagen rich as well.

The other alternatives is drink more Soy Milk. My research found that Natural Cow Milk is still the 2nd best for human.

Nothing can be compare to our mother's milk.




Teenage girls urged to drink milk

Teenage girls are to be encouraged to increase their calcium intake by consuming dairy products - and become more beautiful at the same time.

The Milk Development Council (MDC) is launching a multi-million pound campaign, Naturally Beautiful, with the support of the EC, aiming to focus on the beautifying nutrients found in milk, yoghurt and cheese.

The MDC is hoping to raise awareness amongst teenagers that dairy products are an essential dietary need, and to dispel the myth milk products are fattening.

With an increase in women suffering from osteoporosis in later life, the MDC is targeting young women in an attempt to reverse the trend.

Vicky Hathaway, spokesperson for the MDC said: "Osteoporosis costs the tax payer a staggering 1.7 billion each year and with women making up the majority of sufferers, the campaign will look to tackle the problem at its roots- teenage girls and their mothers."

According to MDC research, almost on in three 11-16 year olds do not know that eating dairy products can prevent brittle bones in later life.

7 out of 10 of their mothers are not aware that deficiency in calcium during adolescence can lead to long-term health problems.

During teenage years, 800mg of calcium a day is needed, which would help combat the onset of osteoporosis in later life.
