"Don't scowl when you read this, but the lines on our face may
say something about the status of your skeleton. Researchers
determined that the deeper and more abundant a woman's facial
wrinkles, the weaker her bones. Why? Both skin and skeleton are
supported by collagen, a fibrous protein. If you have a lot of
wrinkles, ask your doctor about your fracture risk, says study
author Lubna pal, MD. Also take 1,200 mg of calcium daily along
with doing weight-bearing exercise."
