The forgotten part of your bones

LET us look at a part of your bone that is never discussed. Indeed, it may the most important part of the bone. The way people talk about calcium and the bone, you would think that bones are mere calcium sticks. While calcium is hard, it does not have flexibility. It would snap under pressure and crack when subjected to sudden movement.  

There is a part of bone that “bends” and “absorbs” pressure. This is the part that is warm and alive. This is the bone that “feels” and “heals”. Indeed, it is the part that “grows old” over time. The reality is that bone consists of two distinctly different materials – a flexible protein matrix and a variety of minerals (such as calcium, magnesium and phosphorus).
