Toronto, Canada (March 19, 2020) - When it comes to the genre of rapping, there’s one name that has been making news for a while. Wayne Dreadski, thanks to his great work, has become a huge sensation since 2017. On Spotify, rap lovers can find many of his songs from different albums and EPs like Travel Addict, Rasta Rockstar, Designer, Neptune, Her Own Bandz, and more.

What started his popularity?

Manager of Concrete Music Entertainment "Shizz" started calling him Wayne Dreadski in 2017 and ever since then he started having a huge fan following. Shizz came up with this name through a unique twist of combining the great hockey player Wayne Gretzky’s name with this rapper’s name.

Who Is Wayne Gretzky?
Wayne Gretzky is a Canadian-born hockey player and NHL Hall of Famer. He started skating at age 2 and by the age of 6 he was regularly playing with players much older to him. He played his first full NHL season in 1979-80 for the Edmonton Oilers. Over the next two decades, he dominated the sport, setting a host of league records. He retired in 1999 and was inducted into the Hall of Fame that same year.

This unique combination of an athlete’s name with that of a musician is definitely something the world hasn’t seen before. To listen to Wayne Dreadski’s work, please visit https://open.spotify.com/artist/75JQfYFOfuA1oIhdirCaSR

Ingesting the most critical nutrients daily can prevent common health risks associated with aging

Calgary, AB -- Sep 13, 2018 -- As with most health issues, nutrition plays a large part in prevention of problems. This is true when it comes to one’s bones as well. Nutrition is an integral part of how one's bones develop in childhood and continue to be healthy throughout adulthood. It does not stop being important when one becomes a senior adult. The most important bone and joint health supplements one can ingest on a daily basis for bone health is calcium and vitamin D. Without these two nutrients, bones become less dense and there is a risk of health issues like osteoporosis. Therefore, it is important for even older adults to pay close attention to their diet for optimum bone health.

Every day one's bones need to replenish. They are a living organism that grows. Therefore, they need the calcium to do the rebuilding and vitamin D to help the bones absorb the calcium. Without this, the bones will not be able to rebuild what has been discarded and one's bones become thinner.

According to WebMD, the daily amount of calcium a body needs is '700 milligrams of calcium a day for children 1 to 3 years of age, 1,000 milligrams per day for children 4 to 8 years of age, 1,300 milligrams of calcium a day for teenagers, 1,000 milligrams per day for adults until the age of 70, but women over the age of 51 should strive for 1,200 milligrams per day. Women and men over the age of 70 should both get 1,200 milligrams per day' as men begin to catch up to women with the risk of osteoporosis at this age.

Vitamin D is as important as calcium because without it, one's body is unable to absorb the calcium it needs to rebuild bone. WebMD recommends '600 international units (IU) of vitamin D per day from age 1 through age 70 and 800 IU daily after the age of 70'. It is worth noting that some osteoporosis experts believe that getting 800 to 1200 IU of vitamin D is even better for those at risk of the disease.

For those that are wondering how to get this much of these needed nutrients, do not worry. These are easily gotten through the food one eats or by taking bone health vitamins. There is no difference in the type of calcium found in food or supplements as calcium is a mineral and not made by the body. Therefore, many of the foods eaten today are fortified with calcium and vitamin D much like bone health supplements are.

Many adults over the age of 70 believe that it doesn't matter what they eat or don't eat, their body is getting older and no longer works like it did. While, that is true for the most part, one's bones are still doing their daily replenishing routine. So, the more one pays attention to their bones by eating the right kinds of foods and getting the calcium and vitamin D one needs, the less likely one will suffer from bone fractures and osteoporosis.

Take the necessary precautions to maintain bone health and avoid bone fractures common with getting older

Calgary, AB -- Sep 12, 2018 -- A bone scan will check one's bones for bone mass density. It can detect if bones are thinning, where they are getting thinner and if there is a chance of fracturing. Bone scans use dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, or DEXA. It is a quick and painless scan. The DEXA uses two types of scores, a T-score and a Z-score to determine the bone density. T-scores are what is used to determine osteoporosis.

Whether or not one should get a bone scan is really dependant on their health risk factors and age. If one has bone health risk factors, they can avoid osteoporosis by getting a scan early and working with a doctor to treat any issues that come from the results. By not waiting for any concerns to begin, like fractures, to start treatment, one will not have to deal with the pain associated with the problem.

Bone health is determined by one's bone mass and measured in density. Normal bone density is measured using one's T-score. A T-score of -1 or above is normal. A T-score of -1 to -2.5 is low bone density. A diagnosis of osteoporosis is a T-score of under -2.5. By finding out one's bone mass density, one is able to predict the risk of fracture much in the same way one can predict the risk of having a stroke when their blood pressure is monitored.

There are a few health issues that can raise the risk of osteoporosis for both men and women. Post menopausal women over the age of 65 are at the highest risk. Estrogen preserves bone strength and after menopause, estrogen levels drop. Those under the age of 65 have a lower risk and should not worry about getting a scan unless they have other risk factors like smoking, taking steroids, a history of fractures or a body weight of under 127 pounds, according to WebMD. Another risk factor is having a family member who has had fragility fractures, which are broken bones from a minor injury. Men also have to be concerned, just later in life. According to researchers at University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, 'usually around age 70, men start to catch up to women in developing osteoporosis'.

Preventing osteoporosis involves a full range of activities when one is growing older. A bone scan is just one of the things someone can do to help. Other things they can do to prevent osteoporosis involve nutrition, including supplementing diets with bone and joint health supplements, exercise, and continuing to follow one's medical recommendations given after one gets their results. If one finds they have one or more of the risk factors, they will want to make some changes around their home to prevent falls which can cause a major fracture in the hip. Hip fractures are one of the most debilitating types of breaks and are best avoided when possible. When one diligently checks their bone mass density and takes precautions, they are able to avoid the painful consequences of osteoporosis.

Calgary, AB -- Sep 11, 2018 -- Smoking causes and exacerbates many health problems, including hindering bone health. Smoking lowers estrogen levels, which will create less dense bones in your body. Bone density is important to bone health. Smoking tobacco is a risk factor for osteoporosis and bone fracture.

Bone is an organ in the body that needs certain things in order to remain healthy. One of these essential items is calcium. Calcium allows bones to regenerate, which is constantly happening within the body. Therefore, bones need a lot of calcium to do this each and every day. Calcium is not the only thing bones need to replenish itself, it also needs Vitamin D. Without Vitamin D, bones are unable to absorb the calcium it needs to regenerate and there is a loss of bone mass.

Strong bone mass is the sign of healthy bones. As we age, our bones start to get thinner because bones break down faster than they can be regenerated. This is natural and does not normally lead to bone complications. But, if for smokers, this is when they will begin to see the major problems that smoking has affected ontheir bones.

Smoking reduces the amount of calcium that can be absorbed in the bones by hindering the job of Vitamin D. Smoking also lowers estrogen levels in the body, which again hinders how calcium is absorb in bones. When these two things happen, bones start to get brittle putting the person at risk for osteoporosis. If a person continues to smoke, their risk factors of having brittle bones and problems with fractures is higher than with the normal aging of bones.

If a person smokes during their bone building years, bone mass will be affected. At some point in a person's mid-thirties, their bone mass peaks. For a smoker, the bone mass will peak earlier, leaving them thinner bones to start with as the aging process begins. Allowing for more problems with bone density, fractures, and osteoporosis at an earlier time in their lives. According to the National Institute of Health, osteoporosis has been 'called a childhood disease with old age consequences because building healthy bones in youth helps prevent osteoporosis and fractures later in life'. The types of fractures smokers are more susceptible to is at issue as smokers have a 2 to 4 higher chance of having hip fractures and fractures of the spine than non-smokers.

The only way to keep smoking from being a health issue in bones is to not smoke, find a way to quit. According to the UPMC hospital, even if a smoker takes bone strengthening medication because the medication will not be able to work when you smoke. If you are able to quit smoking, then taking medications and supplements will help your bones become healthier.

If you feel you may need medications to help with your bone density because of a previous smoking habit, you can have a bone mineral density (BMD) test. This safe and painless test measures bone density at various sites of the body. It can detect osteoporosis before a fracture occurs and can predict one’s chances of fracturing in the future.

Calgary, AB Canada, 10 September, 2018 -- When creating a fitness routine, don't forget to add exercises that will help strengthen one's bones. While most fitness focuses on muscle and cardio-vascular, adding bone strengthening to the workout will give a person a healthier all around experience. Bones have a big job as they are responsible for supporting our bodies. They are what allows our muscles to do the workouts we design. Therefore, it is important to make strengthening them a part of our fitness routine. When a person is conscience of doing this, their bones will be healthy through their old age.

It is the opinion of most physical trainers that while muscles get the most attention when it comes to fitness routines, bones are just as important - maybe more so! If one only focuses on muscles and neglects their bones, they run the risk of bone density complications, fractures, and osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is defined as, according the WebMD, "is a condition that causes bones to gradually thin and weaken, leaving them susceptible to fractures. About 2 million fractures occur each year due to osteoporosis." The National Osteoporosis Foundation goes on to explain: "About 54 million Americans have osteoporosis and low bone mass, placing them at increased risk for osteoporosis. Studies suggest that approximately one in two women and up to one in four men age 50 and older will break a bone due to osteoporosis." Showing us all how important it is to add bone exercising to our fitness routines.

When you are choosing which exercises to do for bone health, know that they are not all the same. For strengthening your bones, use weight bearing exercises. Don't become discouraged by the thought of using weights in the fitness routine. There is no need to use heavy weights at all, but adding weights will not only strengthen your muscles, but your bones as well.

Adding heavy weights to one's fitness routine is a good idea as well as they have been shown to really help too. As Brad Schoenfeld, an assistant professor of exercise science at New York City’s Lehman College, told Time Magazine: "Through a process known as bone remodeling, strength training stimulates the development of bone osteoblasts: cells that build bones back up. While one can achieve some of these bone benefits through aerobic exercise, especially in one's lower body, resistance training is really the best way to maintain and enhance total-body bone strength."

Cardio-vascular exercises are good for bones when they involve jumping, running or other resistance type or weight bearing type of exercising. As long as you are using against gravity exercises, they will work to make your bones healthier.

It is never too late to start working out for bone health. Our bones can always use the boost, no matter your age, as they are working for us each and every day. So, go out and start walking or taking the stairs. Lift some weights! Then, start to enjoy better bone health.
