BBF: Best Bones Forever!
Everybody knows who their BFF is. That's your Best Friend Forever if you are a tween or teen. But not that many young women know about having BBF- Best Bones Forever.
Many young women do not get the calcium and vitamin D that they need to build strong bones at the time when they are growing the most.
The US Department of Health and Human Services has launched the BBF program to encourage young women to get enough calcium to build bones and the vitamin D that helps the bones use the calcium.
The BBF program also encourages young women to engage in running, jumping, and dancing to keep bones strong.
