How to prevent and treat osteoporosis

  Osteoporosis (osteoporosis) is a systemic bone disease characterized by a decrease in bone mass and destruction of the microstructure of bone, manifested by an increased brittleness of the bone and thus a much higher risk of fracture, even with minor trauma or in the absence of trauma. Osteoporosis is a chronic disease caused by multiple factors. There are usually no specific clinical manifestations until a fracture occurs. The disease is more common in women than men, and is commonly seen in postmenopausal women and the elderly. With the increase of the elderly population in China, the incidence of osteoporosis is on the rise and is a health concern in China and worldwide.  Treatment needs to take the following steps: first, should increase the intake of calcium, we all know that osteoporosis is caused by a lack of calcium, so in ordinary life should eat more food containing calcium to help replenish calcium, so you can eat more milk containing calcium, bone broth or seafood, these are calcium-rich food, can prevent osteoporosis.  Second, should ensure the intake of protein, because protein is an important protective layer of bone, can be good maintenance of bone, so in the usual to ensure adequate protein, can eat more milk, lean meat, eggs, soy products, or fish, shrimp and crab, so as to fully ensure protein.  Moreover, in ordinary life must avoid drinking and smoking, alcohol and tobacco contain toxins, it will inhibit the absorption of calcium, protein, which will cause calcium deficiency, resulting in calcium deficiency, leading to osteoporosis, so you must quit smoking and alcohol.  Finally, in ordinary life to do as much as possible aerobic exercise, you can take a walk in the weak sunlight, jogging, etc. Exercise can enhance the quality of bones, reduce the incidence of osteoporosis, and the sun can promote calcium absorption, a two-pronged approach to prevent osteoporosis.  Note: Do not think that osteoporosis is only a disease specific to the elderly, now suffering from osteoporosis disease of the human body has become increasingly young, so the prevention of osteoporosis to start with the youth, so as to reduce the incidence.
