I am often asked as a vegan about calcium and strong bones. “If I don’t drink milk or eat cheese where will I get my calcium?” Well, where do cows get calcium? (Hint – not from drinking milk). According to the dairy councils own data, milk (or any other dairy product) does not build strong bones. In fact, in a 12-year Harvard study of 78,000 women, those who drank milk three times a day actually broke more bones than women who rarely drank milk. And, according to the Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine (PCRM), a 2005 review published in Pediatrics showed that milk consumption does not improve bone integrity in children. The most healthful calcium sources are green leafy vegetables and legumes, or “greens and beans” for short. Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, collards, kale, mustard greens, Swiss chard, and other greens are loaded with highly absorbable calcium and a host of other healthful nutrients. If you are like many people and don’t like greens, hypnosis can help you change that. I have witnessed many times over the years people quickly switching from “I hate vegetables” to “I can’t believe how much I’m enjoying greens and other vegetables now that I’m using self-hypnosis.”
