[osteoporosis] " can usually be prevented by eating a calcium-rich diet

that builds and maintains bones; avoiding excessive caffeine which

robs the bones of calcium; avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol,

which are toxic to the bones; engaging in regular (age-appropriate)

weight-bearing physical exercise "

=======================

I wonder just what they mean by age appropriate exercise? I sent a query to the

contact in the link.

I try not to act my age....
