Regular weight bearing exercise or strength training is essential to maintaining healthy bones. Resistance training improves muscle mass and strength and can increase spine and hip bone density. Physiotherapists assess posture, understand risk factors and can advise which exercises are best for those with osteoporosis. If you are a woman, you have a 50% lifetime risk of a fracture from osteoporosis. Maintaining adequate bone density lowers the risk of fracture. How does exercise affect bone health? Bone is a living tissue. Bone cells, have the ability to adapt to the amount of stress placed on them thus increasing density.

A recent study conducted by the FDA and published in the Journal of the American Medical Association revealed that commonly used chemical sunscreens are absorbed into the bloodstream at potentially toxic levels after just one day of use. Instead of physically deflecting UV light away from the skin like a mineral sunscreen would do, chemical sunscreens absorb the UV radiation into the skin and dissipate the energy via a chemical reaction under the skin. Additionally, there is concern that chemical sunscreens can permeate the skin and cause hormone disruption. Common chemical sunscreen ingredients to avoid include oxybenzone (one of the worst offenders), avobenzone, octisalate, octocrylene, homosalate, and octinoxate.

Travelling around the globe is more commonplace today than ever. But when people travel, they often unwittingly bring along extra baggage that they didn’t even know they packed. Viruses and bacteria are always on the move, as travellers carry them either by travelling while ill or by being a carrier – having the infection but not experiencing symptoms yet. The good news is that if you do come in contact with a virus or bacteria, there is an excellent chance that an antibiotic or other medication will preserve your good health. Getting vaccinated against diseases that are common to your travel destination will give you extra peace of mind before you hop on that plane.
