I take a daily calcium supplement. Is that all I need to protect my bones? Calcium is indeed a vital nutrient for healthy bones; however it does not work alone. Many other nutrients are required for optimal bone health. If you choose to take a calcium supplement, consider looking for one that combines other bone-supportive nutrients such as magnesium, vitamin D3, vitamin K2, zinc, boron, copper and manganese. Whilst calcium is the most abundant mineral in the bones, its utilisation is dependent upon vitamins D and K. Recent research has highlighted the importance of vitamin K in relation to calcium utilisation, with K2 emerging as having superior bioavailability to K1. Vitamin K2 helps promote the incorporation of calcium into the bone matrix, as well as preventing calcium being deposited in artery walls. Vitamin D3, the most bioavailable form of vitamin D, promotes the transportation of calcium into the bones. Other key bone-building nutrients include zinc, boron, copper and manganese.

As Id rather not use HRT, are there any traditional remedies that can offer relief from menopausal symptoms? Pueraria mirica (also known as Thai Kudzu) is a plant found in Thailand that has for many hundreds of years, been a part of the diet of Thai women. Many women around the world have beneted from the hormone-balancing properties of this herb and more specically, its ability to support women going through the menopause. In a study, women who took PM experienced positive results immediately, and after six months, reported improvements in menopausal symptoms, including hot ushes, night sweats and low mood. Pueraria mirica contains several phytoestrogens (plant oestrogens) including genestein and diadzein, but is the only known source of one particular phytonutrient called miroestrol. Miroestrol is similar to oestriol, a weak oestrogen found in the female body that plays a protective role in health. It is thought that miroestrol occupies the bodys oestrogen receptor sites, resulting in the regulation of oestrogen levels in the body. All these nutrients can be found together in Ultimate Bone Support and PM Phytogen Complex.

TATTENHALL Park Primary School is celebrating after achieving the best Key Stage Two results in the county. The league tables showed that r every child reached the national targets. The school is placed 34th out of over 20,000 nationwide. l CHESHIRE West and Chester Council has to lower the age range at Tattenhall Park Primary School to 3 11 years. A report stated that Tattenhall Park Primary School currently leases one of its classrooms to a local pre-school The Park Preschool and Out of School Club. School governors had formally requested that the Council should consider its request to change the age range from four-11 years to three-11 years, to enable the school to operate a maintained nursery class. Following publication of the statutory notice, there will be a six week statutory representation period during which comments on the proposal can be sent to the council.

Wine talk
with Gill nicol, from enigma Wine
WouLDnT it be nice to be able to have a couple of glasses of wine of an evening and wake up the day after feeling as clear and fresh as if youd had none. Im finding this more and more difficult, especially with the size of the glasses of wine served in wine bars these days! So this month Im advocating wines with a little less alcohol but with plenty of flavour. The Ogio Frizzante from Tesco (4.99 when on offer) is a semi-sparkling Italian white wine. It is made in this style so that the bubbles dont overpower the delicate flavours. It has subtle floral and orchard fruit aromas on the nose with t. crisp but 370 898 a 01244 m. 07964 588 453 medium dry palate, making it soft but refreshing. Ideal as an aperitif and at just 10.5% e. info@enigmawine.co.uk ABV its very easy to drink and doesnt leave you with a fuzzy head the w. www.enigmawine.co.uk day after! I also enjoy the San Valentin by Torres, which can be bought from Morrisons (6.19 when I last bought it). This is made with the Parellada grape from Cataluna in Spain, one of the main grape varieties used in the famous sparkling wine of this region, Cava. This however, is a still, medium dry style of aromatic white wine again at a relatively low ABV of 11%. It has hints of ripe apple and quince on the nose with a slightly sweet, fresh grape flavour on the palate giving it a somewhat voluptuous texture. Served traditionally with seafood it also pairs nicely with a lighter dessert, such as a fruit tart. This might also be the perfect wine to share on Valentines Day! Finally I recently tried a bottle of what is considered to be the Italian equivalent of Beaujolais Nouveau, called Vino Novello, which translates as young wine. This is a light, fruity red wine made throughout most of Italy and is released in early November each year. Once again relatively light in alcohol, on average 11% and available in many local wine merchants. It is best consumed within the first few months of sale and is considered the ideal accompaniment to chestnuts! So if youre looking for something a bit unusual and of interest, why not try a bottle.

FEBRUARY FLOWERS
February can be a month of contrasts ranging from severe cold to balmy sunny spring weather. Whatever the weather, you should find hellebores, snowdrops and crocuses flowering with the promise of spring around the corner. Winter flowering clematis such as Clematis armandii or Clematis cirrhosa varieties may be starting to flower now. Large plants can be pruned by cutting back old wood to large buds and removing weak or older shoots whilst leaving newer growth. For those who are keen to grow vegetables now is the month to get your seed potatoes and set them out in seed trays in a cool light place to chit. This starts the new shoots growing ready to plant out in March. If you want lovely new potatoes in June, then choose a first early variety such as accent or for later, try Kestrel. you can also warm the soil where they are intended to grow by covering it with black plastic. This will raise the temperature of the soil slightly and you can plant the potatoes through holes cut in the plastic. another growing
