Beer, Wine and Your Bones
If you like the taste of a good brew, then here is some good news! In a recent research study of over 2,900 women and men, researchers found that beer, which contains silicon, may promote bone health. Silicon is a mineral that is thought to stimulate collagen production, which is a building block in bone formation. Wine is rich is phytochemicals, which may also benefit bones. Research does not show, however, in the battle of the sexes, that beer or wine has better or less results in either men or women. In a recent WebMD interview, Katherine Tucker, PhD says that it is possible that two glasses of wine could benefit men, while women may get a bone boost from two cans of beer. Another study of 2,847 people from the Framingham Osteoporosis Study found that men and pre-menopausal women who drank the most silicon, about 40 mg a day, had the highest bone mineral density, a measurement of bone health. Silicon is rarely listed on food labels, so it is hard to tell exactly how much you are consuming. But, you can estimate that one 12-ounce beer has approximately 7 mg of silicon.
It is important is that you drink any alcoholic beverage in moderation because while two cans of beer or two 6 ounce glasses of wine may be good for promoting bone growth, drinking more is harmful. The not-so-good news is that if you drink distilled beverages such as vodka or Scotch, daily consumption of these beverages has shown to actually promote osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a bone-wasting disease that makes your bones brittle and more prone to breaks. The disease increases with age and is more common in women than men, especially postmenopausal women.
Drinking red wine has also shown to be linked to heart health. So, what we are seeing now is a diet that is good for the heart and another that is good for the bones. Because good nutrition is good for the heart, you can consider it good for the bones as well. Other studies have shown that good nutrition also plays a significant role in brain health.
So, how much beer or wine is good for your bones? Current recommendations are for two drinks a day for men and one drink a day for women. So, don't jump and run to a keg party quite yet, remember that moderation is best.
Now, if you are not a beer or wine drinker, don't start now just to promote bone growth. There are other ways to get silicon, and let us not forget that alcohol consumption raises other health risks such as osteoporosis itself. So, if you are interested in a healthier way to introduce silicon into your diet, you will want to eat dates, mangoes, melons, spinach, apples and even some bottled mineral waters will be good sources.

Are Luxury Cruises Worth The Extra Cost?

Are Luxury Cruises Worth The Extra Cost? By Ann Buroker Mainstream cruises, especially the ones run on large ships by the major companies, tend to be pretty affordable these days with prices starting around $100 a day for inside cabins. Luxury cruises, on the other hand, cater to a different crowd, and prices can be $1,000 or more per day. As with flying first class on an airplane, the difference in price between standard and luxury is a big one. Expect to pay far more than double the price.

The Age today caught Melbournians up with a crime mystery that’s been circulating for a year now. It concerns an alleged serial killer, linked to dozens of crimes, big and small, by her DNA. Sometimes called the “Phantom of Heilbronn”, the Age uses her other nickname: On New Year’s Day in 2003 at Dietzenbach, near Frankfurt, an office was broken into and a coffee tin of loose change stolen. “It was a professional job,” said Guenter Horn, another high-profile prosecutor liaising with police. “S

A mini Blogher conference, that’s exactly what it was. Or what I imagine a women’s mini blogging conference would be like, because it’s not like I’ve actually been to anything remotely bloggy before. It was a micro-conference. (Ha. I’m so clever. Feel free to use that.) I met Emily, Liz, Fiona, Suezette, Stacey, Lynnette, Amber, Jill, Vanessa, Lois, and Jennifer, all for the first time after following them on Twitter and reading their personal blogs and posts on New Jersey Moms Blog.

This was my second year of klatsching with leaders in the media technology space. This event is a personal luxury, and not just because it's in Monte-Carlo, though that helps. It's also a place where I get to take two steps back and look at the emerging view of new media. There definitely were some highlights: --Tina Brown was interviewed by Larry Kramer about her foray into new media, The Daily Beast.

This Hendersonville-based bakery, The Underground Baking Company, is SO underground, you've probably never heard of them. I hadn't until this past Saturday when I stumbled across their soft opening foray into the retail world at a wine tasting.That's right, a wine tasting! What caught my attention first were cheese biscotti provided for nibbling between wines. Hadn't seen them before and they were completely savory-tasty.Then my ears perked up when people around me mentioned there were also choc

Danny was upbeat as he swung his car into the space front of the butcher’s shop. “Let’s stop mourning Fred’s old shop closing and enjoy the search for a new butcher. It could be fun.” The Chicken Lady had reminded me that there was a good butcher in Fordham, a fifteen minute drive from Cheveley. This shop specialises in free range local meat. Some of their cattle graze on the stud farms that surround our village. We stepped over the threshold past a long fringe of spiced beef and hunks of bi
So How Was Your Weekend?

This weekend marked one of my favorite occasions: date night. Jeff and I went out on Friday in celebration of his 30th birthday. Date nights are always a much anticipated phenomenon around here and this was certainly no exception. We ate at a local upscale restaurant that boasts “great American cooking.” The verdict? Eh. Not so much. I did, however, discover a delicious new wine that I intend to search high and low for; I think it would make a most excellent addition to my Thanksgiving t
