Good morning!
I’m not yet 40, but have recently begun wondering if bone health should be on my radar. What I’ve heard from many experts is yes, it matters at every age! So today’s study gets me motivated to drink more tea.
Plus I’ve got all the no-fuss meal ideas you need for back-to-school season.
Read through and then be sure to share this newsletter with the tea-lover in your life. —Ailsa Cowell, M.S., health editor |

Your bones want you to drink more teaMove over milk, there’s a new bone-supporting beverage in town. Researchers of a new study followed more than 2,000 adults for up to 13 years to investigate whether tea consumption was associated with changes in bone health:¹
- Tea consumption was categorized into four groups: non-, low-, moderate-, or high-frequency.
- Researchers assessed bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content at the whole body, total hip, lumbar spine, and femoral neck.
- They found that people who reported drinking tea at a moderate frequency generally had the most favorable BMD measures, including whole body, lumbar spine, and femoral neck.
- Tea is a great source of a class of polyphenols called flavan-3-ols.Two types of these, epicatechin gallate and epigallocatechin gallate, were generally associated with more favorable bone mineral measures.
Flavan-3-ols have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and early research suggests they may impact the activity of osteoblasts (the cells that build new bone) and osteoclasts (the cells that break bone down). You can learn more about it here.

High-achiever? Here’s how to prevent burnout |
|
 |
Science journalist Elizabeth Svoboda spent years reporting on pacing and burnout for her book, The Art of Pacing. One of her greatest takeaways is that our perception of effort is often separated into two camps, and she says neither one is healthy. One says go 110%, lean in as hard as you possibly can, the other says quiet quit, or “lie flat.”
In our recent episode of the mindbodygreen podcast, she and Jason dig into how to align your hardest work with your body's energy peaks, how to pace yourself, and balancing effort and recovery.
