- In order not to break: what to eat for strong bones


The resistance of bones to shock depends on what food we eat.
Approaching the age of forty, many begin to experience bone problems. By this age, their ability to regenerate is significantly reduced, and they become more vulnerable, leading to injury and disability.
Doctors call this process natural and due to age-related changes. At the same time, as Medikforum writes, you can "delay" the time of bone aging simply by eating the "right foods" rich in calcium.
Among the same food:
Sesame seeds
They are rich in fatty acids and fiber. Sesame levels cholesterol in the body and removes inflammation; if that, it has a positive effect on the nervous system. It is pretty easy to introduce this product into your diet - it can be generously used as an additive to salads.
Legumes
They contain calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus. Beans and the like are great for strengthening bones. As a bonus, they reduce anxiety levels.
soy products
Tofu, tempeh, and soy drinks are rich in protein, which is used for bone growth and regeneration.
cruciferous vegetables
Leafy green vegetables contain vitamin K and calcium. These include spinach, turnip greens, cabbage and cauliflower, and broccoli.
Nuts and figs
These foods are rich in magnesium and phosphorus. They improve bone mineral density, which in turn prevents such osteoporosis.
At the same time, experts emphasize that in a diet aimed at strengthening bones, it is essential to observe the principle of nutritional balance and diet flexibility, depending on the person's age.
