Did you know that your chances of breaking a bone double during the winter months?
To help keep your bones strong and lessen your chance of a fracture, try snacking on dried plums. Research shows that women who snacked on 10 prunes a day had higher bone mineral density after a year than those who snacked on other dried fruit.
Research suggests that dried plums can help prevent the breakdown of bone as we age, thus reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
