A blog post, authored by the rediscover Patient Education Team, has been published to the rediscover Reads patient education publishing platform.
The article, titled “Fuel your Spine”, reviews the different vitamins and minerals that are important to keep one's spine healthy. It also outlines some of the nutrient-rich foods that contain these vitamins and minerals.
The blog post also reviews several non-food sources of these important elements, such as exposure to sunlight to induce the body to make Vitamin D.
To conclude, readers are reminded:
"Eating a well-balanced diet made up of plenty of fruits and vegetables is one of the best ways to ensure you are getting the right fuel to your spine."

As with all rediscover Reads articles, the information is provided for general education purposes only, rather than a recommendation for any particular patient.
Intended to empower patients to advocate for their own care through improved education, the rediscover Reads blog presents an opportunity for your surgeons to educate their patients, as well.
In fact, increased awareness of the success that the featured patient ambassadors have had in pursuing their life goals has resulted in thousands of searches for local surgeons on the website.
