Treatment and prevention of osteoporosis

  Osteoporosis is an embarrassing problem that people, especially the middle-aged and elderly, have to face. Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease characterized by a decrease in bone mass and degradation of bone microstructure, resulting in an increase in bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture. The most serious consequence is osteoporotic fracture, of which the spine is the most common.  The most serious consequence is osteoporotic fracture, which is most common in the spine. Usually, along with the aging trend of osteoporosis is inevitable, and what is claimed from nature must always be slowly returned. The easiest and most effective way to do this is to increase peak bone mass. The so-called peak bone mass is the highest value of bone mineral content in the human skeleton, which is generally reached around the age of 30. The clinical criterion for determining osteoporosis is to measure bone mineral density 2 standard deviations below the mean value of peak bone mass. Theoretically, as long as there is a high enough peak bone mass, the bone density can be reduced year by year without the risk of osteoporosis.  How to improve? Regrettably, yellow people have a higher risk of osteoporosis than blacks and whites; neither can we choose our region, at least not when we are young. What we can control is: change bad habits, reasonable nutrition, enough exercise. This seems to be too much online content, too lazy to code. The survey shows that weight for bone density seems to be a protective factor, which can be difficult for women, huh.  What should I do if I already have osteoporosis? Do not rush, the first step to self-examine him to find the cause: hormones? Alcoholism? Poor nutrition? Other diseases? ……. The second step is to deal with the cause accordingly. The first 5 years after menopause is the fastest rate of decline in bone density. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on this.  The treatment of osteoporosis is actually very simple: still need to change bad habits, reasonable nutrition, enough exercise, on this basis can use some drugs, pull the GDP growth. What drugs to choose, how to choose? Do not look at the ads to look at the wallet, we are socialism with Chinese characteristics, and is still the primary stage, only part of the people rich up.  The first category: calcium + vitamin D, what calcium supplements on the world are similar (Oh, of course, the main price difference is relatively large), the key is to “clean”, do not buy calcium to send lead or any other unwanted heavy metals on the line. In fact, life now is still much better than before, so it is a lot of people intake of calcium and vitamins is actually not much, how osteoporosis it? This well only ask God, why people want to be old? Older and older, the calcium in the bones can not stay, God wants to take back the things that can not be helped. The upper policy, the lower response, we have been flexible use.  The second category: bone resorption inhibitors, the world also has many varieties of ha such as calcitonin, phosphate and so on, this especially depends on the wallet ha. Calcitonin has injection and nasal spray, it is recommended to choose injection (need skin test); phosphate class oral are bisphosphonates such as alendronate sodium, risedronate, etc., there are special requirements for taking method, need to pay attention to, and intravenous use of zoledronic acid, once a year is also more convenient. The above several drugs can be chosen the same.  The third category: bone formation promoters, there are not many reliable and mature products. Women can also use a little estrogen under the guidance of a gynecologist to inhibit bone resorption and promote bone formation, which is always a little more choice than men.
