NANIMA'S REMEDY

Osteoporosis Remedy The past few months I have noticed a few elderly people in my family and friends have either gone for a hip replacement, knee replacement or fractured something or another after falling. Madiba was not looking to great either compared to other Southern African leaders his age. Osteoporosis is a disease of bone in which the bone mineral density (BMD) is reduced which means one has a low bone mass and deteriorating bone tissue. Fish oil containing EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and GLA (gamma linolenic acid) is not only an effective safeguard against osteoporosis, it also improves the skin and brain function and avoids cardiovascular problems. dancing, walking, or bouncing on trampolines. Exercise for at least thirty minutes comprising of weight-bearing exercise such as walking, jogging, dancing, bouncing on trampolines, three times a week. Weight lifting, strength training, resistance training --these are all names for exercises in which you strengthen your bones and muscles by lifting weights or otherwise working against resistance (such as using an exercise band).If you are underweight (say, more than 10 percent lighter than the average weight for your age and height), you are at higher risk for a deficiency of calcium and other important vitamins and minerals, which can affect your bones' health. On the other hand, being overweight is no guarantee of bone health either, because even though the extra weight puts a greater load on the bones, it also tends to discourage regular bone-building physical activity. Soak up the sun. Vitamin D is sometimes called the sunshine vitamin for 15 minutes.Shake Your Taste for Salt. Sesame seeds: A handful of sesame seeds had every morning may also help osteoporosis. Stop Smoking.Limit Booze. Eat a banana a day to build your bones. Studies have found that women who have diets high in potassium also have stronger bones in their spines and hips. Researchers think this is related to potassium's ability to keep blood healthy and balanced so the body doesn't have to suck calcium from the skeleton to keep blood up to par. Yoghurt is a good source of calcium for the lactose intolerant.
