A few books and websites I have found useful

Here are some books I have found especially useful for giving me information on osteoporosis and helping me help myself:

[b]'Osteoporosis, the silent epidemic'[/b] by Marilyn Glenville [url]http://tinyurl.com/csd6fo[/url] lots of information about different treatments.
[b]'Preventing and Reversing Osteoporosis' [/b]by Alan Gaby [url]http://tinyurl.com/awon63[/url] A bit out of date regarding medications but absolutely tons of information about supplements and lifestyle.
[b]'Better Bones, Better Body'[/b] by Susan Brown [url]http://tinyurl.com/borktj[/url]
[b]'The Myth of Osteoporosis'[/b] by Gillian Sanson [url]http://tinyurl.com/bshqvh[/url] This doesn't say osteoporosis is a myth but it is a provocative title to make one understand that it's not just about DEXA scans.

These two books on exercise I have also found excellent:
[b]'Exercises for Osteoporosis'[/b] by Dianne Daniels [url]http://tinyurl.com/d9quum[/url] An easy to start with book with good illustrations
[b]'The Slow Burn' [/b]by Frederick Hahn [url]http://tinyurl.com/bpj8ap[/url] I refer to 'The Slow Burn' all the time for the weight lifting I do to help increase my bone density.

And here are some websites I've also found very useful (not counting the NOS website !) the first two packed with information about osteoporosis and the third one about vitamin D which is so important to bone health.
