I’ve read that there are 20 nutrients required for bone health, but the Personal Program includes 16 of them. What are the other four?
The Personal Program includes balanced amounts of 16 of the 20 essential bone-building nutrients. The remaining four are phosphorus, protein, fluoride and silica. Most women get enough — or too much — phosphorus, protein and fluoride in their diets already, so supplementation of these is neither beneficial nor wise. Some women could benefit from supplemental silica, which is available in liquid form only. If you are concerned about your silica level give us a call and we’ll help you make sure you’re getting enough.
