The Book of Lost Energy
Maintaining Good, Healthy, And Strong Bones
We lose our bone density as we age. Bone loss is due to the condition called
osteoporosis wherein the bones become thin that they easily break. This is the
reason why people who are at the age of 60 and beyond are at higher risk of getting
bone fractures leading to disability.
Without a good bone structure during your advanced years, it may become more
difficult for you to do tasks that you once enjoyed. When you were younger you
may have enjoyed these activities: dancing, hiking, climbing mountains, and even
your simplest hobbies. The thing is, having a good bone structure is crucial for
energy as you are able to move more, and movements are not restricted by creaking
bones.
Thus said, it is important to know how to have good bone structure despite your
age. But while you or your contemporaries may suffer from bone-related diseases,
there are some things that you can do to maintain good, healthy, and strong bones.
This section will discuss the many things that you can do to maintain the healthy
bone structure.
Start with Nutrition
The first thing that you need to do is to feed your bones with the right nutrition. A
healthy diet can reduce the risk of osteoporosis and bone loss. There are two
important nutrients that are critical for building the bone tissues and these include
calcium and Vitamin D.
