Osteoporosis

I wonder if there was another factor involved regarding the Osteoporosis? Especially considering your history with working out.
A solid history of working out does not warrant a healthy bone density at any age. As human, our bones should renew every 10 years. The architecture of our skeleton/bones offer one, only one not 2 not 3 windows during which bone's foundation is built. It is during adolescence. Nutrition during that age is more than crucial .... It has proven to be life threathening for some. if nutrition is very poor or not existent for any reason --- Eating disorder illness- anorexia nervosa, the bone's architecture could be jeopardised. That is sadly the single window which determine what we all end up living and dealing with. Working out help but nutrition is very important. Building muscles at early age is also helpful. Fact is 50% of women who suffered anorexia risk to suffer from osteoporosis. Shocking!:confused:

There is an article which discuss about osteoporosis.... God I really miss Cathe's blogs


Take care!

Here are factors:


The Bottom Line​

A high-protein diet that contains more protein than the RDA may not be harmful to your bones after all. In fact, it may be beneficial, regardless of whether it’s animal or plant-based protein. On the other hand, plants are a good source of magnesium, another mineral that supports healthy bones. Plus, consuming more plant-based protein is beneficial for other reasons. Plants are a good source of fiber and phytonutrients that you don’t find in animal-based foods.

Also, be aware of your risk factors for osteoporosis. Established risk factors for osteoporosis include:

· Being Caucasian or Asian

· Having small bones or being underweight

· History of an eating disorder

· Smoking or using excessive alcohol

· Use of certain medications

· First or second-degree relatives who have had osteoporosis

· History of fractures

· Having certain health problems

· Smoking

· Using excessive alcohol
