Rating:  - Good Book
Good book for an unknown subject. When everything else is more widely know about Osteoporosis.
Rating:  - Excellent book!
i bought this book upon learning that I had osteopenia and found it to be a helpful resource. It helped me to change my lifestyle in hopes of ridding myself of osteopenia. I highly recommend it!
Rating: - very informative book
I have read a few of Dr. McIlwain's books over the years and have found them all to be so informative. I bought this book after my mom was diagnosed with osteoporosis so that I could learn about preventing it for myself. It is so easy to read and explained everything I needed to know in great detail. My bone density has improved after taking his suggestions!
Rating: - Great book on osteopenia!
This book is a must read for all mom's and for women that want to prevent osteopenia and osteoporosis. The book walks you through the steps of preventing a disease that many assume just happens. I have completely changed our diet. Easy to follow and good information.
Rating:  - Disappointing
This book did not come close to my expectations. It is unnecessarily repetitive about the most basic information. Once I've been told that smoking is a risk factor for loss of bone density, just how many case histories of patients do I need to read where the expert medical advice is Surprise, Surprise!! Quit smoking. There's a lot of "filler" material in this book, but then information that the reader needs is left out. We're told to get more Calcium, Vitamin D and Potassium in our diet, but the recipes in Chapter 7 don't even include nutrition information for these nutrients. And many of the recipes are high in fat, which isn't good for anyone. We're told about the importance of weight-bearing exercise, but none of the exercises shown uses weights or even a resistance band. I wanted practical advice on diet and especially exercise and don't feel that this book delivered.
