BEAT OSTEOPOROSIS AND OSTEOPENIA WITH A LIFESTYLE CHANGE

striveforgoodhealth.com

 

While there could be a number of reasons why people suffer from ostepenia and osteoporosis, one of the main factors is due to their lifestyle. Here are a few suggestions on lifestyle changes that could help mitigate the occurrence of osteoporosis and probably keep its predecessor, osteopenia, at bay.

First of all, diet plays a major part. Different places around the world have different cuisines and key ingredients, but there is one major factor in a traditional kitchen – they all use fresh produce. When eating something that is fresh, you are guaranteed majority of their vitamins and minerals that they boast of. Keeping consumption of meat on a low is important and eating calcium-rich foods is a necessity. There are some diets that don’t allow dairy products, which are the main contributing foods that have calcium, but you can always supplement them with another food or take tablets that are packed with calcium, after consulting with your doctor. Drink plenty of water and avoid caffeinated and carbonated beverages because they erode bone mass. To cut a long story short, eat fresh and have a calcium-rich diet to beat osteopenia and osteoporosis.

There are other two factors that contribute to bone health – exercise and vitamin D. So putting them both together, here is a good tip that can keep osteopenia and osteoporosis at bay. The early morning sun is the best time to get Vitamin D as it is the richest source for it. At the same time, going for walks also help to strengthen bones. So going for an early morning walk is a way to get the benefit of both at one time! If you are suffering or have suffered before from a fracture due to osteoporosis, then you should take someone along with you when you go out. You may be scared of breaking or fracturing another bone when doing so, but sitting indoors will only make it worse. You don’t need to throw caution to the wind, but at the same time, enjoy the outdoors while taking some precautions.

As it can be seen, living a healthier life is the key to beating osteoporosis, though there are a lot of other medical measures that should be taken as well, as prescribed by your doctor. Another unhealthy habit that should be stopped is smoking. Nicotine is very detrimental to the health of bones and while kicking the habit can be difficult, there are support groups to help you as well as medication that stop the urge.

While on the topic of medication, a person may have other health issues going on beside osteopenia or osteoporosis. An overall check should be made of the medication that is being consumed. While, for example, a man may be suffering from osteopenia and at the same time consuming tablets for his prostate issues, he may not be aware that this medication actually lowers testosterone and ultimately estrogen which are needed for healthy bones. So by either stopping or changing his medication, he may prevent osteopenia from turning into full-blown osteoporosis.

There is no stopping to tell how a small lifestyle change can have the biggest positive results on your health.
