OsteoTrace

OsteoTrace is one of my favourite dietary supplements. I take two tablets a day (with food) to help stop my osteoporosis getting worse, and with the aim of preventing arthritis developing. Most people take it for their arthritis and arthritis pain. OsteoTrace is the mix of minerals and vitamins developed by Dr. Rex Newnham to treat (successfully) his own worsening arthritis. Principal amongst the minerals is boron, following Rex's observation that the lower the levels of boron in the soil and water of an area, the higher the levels of arthritis in the people living in that area. Each tablet of OsteoTrace contains three milligrams of boron (in the form sodium tetraborate), so three tablets a day taken with food (the therapeutic dosage recommended by Rex) keeps you at the Optimum Daily Allowance (ODA) of nine milligrams and well below the Safe Upper Limit/Tolerable Upper Intake Level (SUL/TUIL) of 20 milligrams a day. The other fifteen nutrients in OsteoTrace were chosen specific...

How to drink water

Hi Jeremy! This one's for you ... It is generally accepted that drinking between one and two litres of water a day is health-bringing. How does one achieve that to best effect and without interfering with the work of the stomach? It comes down to timing. You need to drink your water: on an empty stomach, which means at least three hours after the last meal, and at least 45 minutes before the next meal If you drink earlier than three hours after you finished your last meal the water may be simply mixed in with everything else the stomach is mashing up. If you allow your water at least 45 minutes of empty stomach you can be pretty sure that nearly all of it will be fast-tracked into the small intestine. Sometimes half a litre can get from mouth to small intestine in as little as five minutes! Let's say we want to drink a full two litres a day, and drink it in three intakes of 667 millilitres (two large 'builder's mugs' worth). Here is a feasible timetable ...

Nick has a go

Following Dagfinn Aune and colleagues' call for both women and men to eat at least ten 80 gram portions of vegetables and fruit (V&F) a day (see the article  'Five-a-day? Ten? Lucky thirteen?' ), I thought I would see if I could squeeze ten portions of V&F into my habitual meal structure, viz: a hearty breakfast (~600g), a wholesome lunch (~470g) and a modest dinner (~260g). The hearty breakfast (~600g) The hearty breakfast required little change. I had been breakfasting on porridge accompanied with two portions of fruit followed with a generous (~30g) mix of sunflower and pumpkin seeds and lubricated throughout with a very large dollop (~100g) of organic plain yoghurt for years. Adding a third 80g portion of fruit was not difficult: Porridge - ~230g Portion (80g) of fruit x 3 - ~240g Sunflower and pumpkin seed mix - ~30g Yoghurt - ~100g a total weight of meal - ~600g One of the first things I noticed when I took on this challenge was how sma...
