With China stepping into an aging society, the prevalence of osteoporosis is also increasing. At present, the number of osteoporosis patients in China is as high as 90 million. It is expected that the number of patients with osteoporosis will continue to increase with the aging.
What harm does osteoporosis have to the body?
Fracture is the direct result of osteoporosis, which affects the body function and leads to disability and death. The common fracture sites are the lower back, buttocks and arms. Especially in the first year after hip fracture, the mortality rate of various complications is as high as 20%-50%, and more than 50% survivors will have different degrees of disability.
Some people will say that osteoporosis just needs to be careful not to fall. In fact, once osteoporosis is formed, there may be backache, hunchback, height reduction and bone pain all over the body, which are also affecting our quality of life and health.
Doctor reminds: Bone mineral density is too low, try to eat two kinds of vegetarian food as little as possible, remember.
1, spinach
Although spinach is rich in iron and vitamin C, eating too much can easily induce osteoporosis, because spinach contains a substance harmful to bones-oxalic acid. When the human body ingests too much oxalic acid, it will combine with calcium in the body to form calcium oxalate which is insoluble in water, and then it will be excreted with urine, taking away the calcium in the body, thus affecting the health of bones.
2. Wasp dishes
Chickpea, also known as purslane, often appears on the table in the form of cold salad when the weather is hot. Although everyone often eats wild vegetables for health now, purslane also belongs to wild vegetables, but it is not suitable for people with osteoporosis. Portulaca oleracea is a vegetable with high oxalic acid content. After oxalic acid enters the blood, it will combine with free calcium in the body to produce insoluble calcium oxalate, which is not conducive to the deposition of calcium in bones, and will inhibit the development of bones and affect the strength of bones.
Insist on two things, or reduce bone loss and increase bone density.
1, supplement bone nutrition
People with low bone density must pay attention to supplement bone nutrition to ensure bone health. In order to better increase bone density, it can be eaten together with bone-nourishing glucoside, which contains extracts of various Chinese herbal medicines. People with low bone density can supplement chondroitin in bone-nourishing glycoside in time, which can promote the regeneration and repair of chondroitin cells and improve bone microstructure, thus accelerating bone growth and preventing bone loss. A combination of Fructus Psoraleae and Eucommiae Cortex. It can play a dual role in supplementing bone, promoting the division of osteoblasts and increasing their vitality, thus strengthening the number and density of trabeculae and preventing bone aging and osteoporosis better.
2. Proper exercise
The bone tissue of human body is a living tissue, and the muscle activity in exercise will constantly stimulate the bone tissue and make the bone stronger. Exercise also helps to enhance the body's reaction ability, improve the balance function and reduce the risk of falling. So osteoporosis is not easy to occur.
