HOLLYWOOD actress Gwyneth Paltrow is one of the most health conscious
celebs, but is suffering from a brittle bone disease Osteoporosis which
typically effects older women. Gwyneth Paltrow was diagnosed with the
disease after she broke her leg. The 37 year old actress is known for her
extreme health regimes and the punishing diets may have led to her being diagnosed with the condition, reported Daily Mail online.“My doctors tested my vitamin D levels, which turned out to be the lowestthing they had ever seen (not a good thing)” Paltrow writes on her Internet
newsletter Goop. She said she was put on prescription strength vitamin D
and told to spend more time in the sun.
Osteoporosis can be triggered by a lack of calcium and excessive exercise.
She has followed a macrobiotic diet which is popular among celebrities for
11 years and exercises up to three hours a day.
Some nutritionists believe her diet was also to blame for her brittle bone
problem. "A macrobiotic diet is often lower in protein than a diet that
includes dairy foods and meat so if she's doing a lot of exercise but not
getting enough protein, she's not getting enough to build her bones either"
Sydney nutritionist Sharon Natoli said.
Bernadette Peters has written two children's books, both illustrated by Liz Murphy. The first is about a scrappy dog, named after her dog Kramer, and
the pleasure of adopting a pet. The book titled 'Broadway Barks', is

a lullaby, 'Kramer's Song' which is included on a CD in the book. The book
reached - 5 on The New York Times Children's Best Sellers : Picture Books
list for the week of June 8, 2008.Peters second children's book is the story of a pit bull, Stella, named after
Peters' pit bull. The character would rather be a pig ballerina, but she learns
to accept herself. The book titled 'Stella is a Star', includes a CD with an
original song written and performed by Peters and was released in April 2010
by Blue Apple Books.
According to Publisher's Weekly, "Turning the pages to Peters' spirited
narration, which is provided in an accompanying CD, makes for a more
rewarding reading experience. The story and disc end with a sneakily
affecting self-esteem anthem, which, like the familiar tale itself, is buoyed by
the author's lovely vocals." Peters introduced the book at a reading and
signing where she also sang part of the song, at the L.A. Times Festival of
Books, Los Angeles, California, on April 24, 2010.Bernadette Peters sings four songs on the CD accompanying the 2005
children's picture book Dewey Doo-it Helps Owlie Fly Again, the proceeds of
which benefit the Christopher Reeve Foundation. Her co-star from Sunday in
the Park With George, Mandy Patinkin, also sings on the CD.
