When was the last time you thought about your bones? All 206 of them!
During childhood and teenage years your bones need your attention…full time…90% of bone strength is achieved by the time you are 18 years of age.
So what you drink, what you eat and how active you are can make all the difference to your future health as bones are growing and strengthening at their fastest rate. And they are hungry for calcium!
How strong your bones are for the future will depend on how you treat them now during childhood and adolescence.
Strong bones are not that hard to achieve, it's a simple mix of some fun nutrition, fun activity, and a touch of good fortune from your parents' genes!

• Get physical
