Women who are vegetarian are more likely to experience hip fractures later in their lives than those who eat meat regularly, according to a new study published in BMC Medicine.
Vegetarians may not consume sufficient nutrients for proper bone and muscle health, which could increase their risks for falls and fractures, the researchers concluded.
Webster and colleagues analyzed health and diet records for more than 26,000 women between ages 35-69 in the UK Women’s Cohort Study, who were classified as regular meat-eaters, occasional meat-eaters, pescatarians or vegetarians. Webster and colleagues suspect that vegetarians are more likely to be underweight than meat eaters, the newspaper reported, and they may have less fat, weaker bones and weaker muscles that would otherwise protect them during falls.

How Women Can Get What They Want in a NegotiationBased on a growing body of research on gender in negotiations, combined with burgeoning research on positivity and mindfulness, several strategies can help women negotiate more effectively. Investing effort in preparation for a negotiation — knowing what you want and why, thinking through acceptable alternatives, and developing specific strategies for being persuasive — can significantly increase your confidence and competence. Prior to a negotiation, women can use positive priming (thinking about something positive or engaging in a joyful activity) to increase positive emotions, resulting in greater creativity, openness, and willingness to collaborate, all of which are essential to successful negotiation. With increased confidence, women will be more likely to assert their needs. Confidence may also reduce anxiety about negotiating, which women experience to a greater degree than men. This can increase the likelihood that women choose to enter a negotiation to begin with. And a greater awareness of the emotions of others during a negotiation can help women better understand their needs and interests, which can make it easier to find integrative solutions.
