And exercise -- especially weight-bearing exercise such as walking -- is also important to keep them strong. This book contains more than 100 simple recipes that use both dairy & non-dairy sources of calcium, including breakfasts & appetizers, soups, salads, pasta dishes, beverages & desserts. Each recipe has a nutrient analysis to show you how much calcium you're getting with each serving. An exercise section illustrates easy ways to protect your bones & to increase bone mass to keep your bones strong.

While home freezers were almost unheard of before the 1930s, they are now a common appliance in North American households. In fact, some 3 million freezers are sold each year. 
 What accounts for their popularity? Simply that freezing is the easiest, most natural way to preserve food -- whether it's fresh summer produce saved for enjoyment in winter or prepared meals that can be easily thawed and reheated when needed. Freezing also provides a number of economic benefits, allowing consumers to buy food in quantity at the best prices. 
 What many people don't realize, however, is that some foods are more successfully frozen than others. And of those foods that do freeze well, using the proper techniques can make a big difference in their flavor and texture. That's why just about anyone who owns a freezer needs The Best Freezer Cookbook. 
 Here you'll find comprehensive reference to the various techniques for freezing fruits, vegetables, meats, poultry, fish and seafood. In addition, the book provides over 100 recipes -- including appetizers, soups, main meals, side dishes and desserts -- all specially selected to give the best possible results when frozen. Each section is designed to help you get the maximum benefit from your freezer, with helpful suggestions for easy entertaining, meal planning, simple heat-and-eat dishes for busy weeknights, and freezing baked goods. And, of course, no freezer cookbook would be complete without recipes for homemade ice cream! 
 The perfect book for everyone who wants the best from their freezer.
