Hello, everyone. Mr. Zhang, 60, has always been a fitness enthusiast. Especially on weekends, he will go to get together with friends around him for fitness. Recently, he stopped taking part in fitness activities. After asking his family, I learned that Mr. Zhang had a sudden pain and discomfort in his leg recently. After examination, the doctor found that Mr. Zhang had the same bone age as a 90-year-old man. What happened? Mr. Zhang was diagnosed as osteoporosis by the doctor. The reason why Mr. Zhang suffers from osteoporosis is that he usually likes to eat three kinds of food, which may have a lot to do with it. Let's find out which three kinds of food.
First, I drink a lot of bone soup. In fact, Mr. Zhang's lover is a wife who pays great attention to health. Although she often cooks bone soup for teacher Zhang, she has a very bad habit, that is, she puts too much salt in the bone soup. In fact, everyone has an illusion that bone soup contains more calcium. In fact, this is a wrong cognition. In fact, the calcium content in the soup is relatively small, while Mr. Zhang's wife has it. In addition, bone soup contains a lot of oil. If ingested for a long time, it will lead to an increase in cholesterol and deposit in the intestine, which will also affect the absorption of calcium.
Second, it is strong tea. Many old people have the habit of drinking strong tea. There is a certain amount of tea polyphenols in tea, which can help the human body to resist oxidation and has certain benefits to bones, but the alkaloid components in it will reduce the absorption of calcium in the gastrointestinal tract. Drinking light tea has a certain health care effect on bones, but if drinking strong tea for a long time, it will affect bone health and easily lead to osteoporosis.
Third, it is the habit of drinking. Long-term alcohol intake will lead to the abnormality of intestinal mucosal cells, resulting in the destruction of microvilli and mitochondria, and its absorption of calcium will also be affected and destroyed. We are not saying that drinking strong tea and bone soup is bad for our health, but that drinking strong tea and bone soup in large doses is bad for our bone health.
If middle-aged and elderly people want to prevent osteoporosis, they should try to stay away from the above three foods, and at the same time, they need to have some taboos in diet, as well as appropriate calcium supplementation and active exercise in their lives, so these two points are also very critical.
