  3. Introduction • Strong, healthy bones are very important to our well-being and something everyone must pay attention to it. • As we become older, our bones don’t grow and repair themselves as quickly as they used to. • The strength of your bone depends on your own diet, exercise, and our lifestyle choices. • Doctors can assess your bones and can decide how to slow down the bone loss and build its density. www.praxisorthocare.com

  4. Is the older people the only ones who need to be concerned about bone health? • The older you are, the more susceptible you are to bone problems. • At a younger age we build new bone faster than we break it down and after that begin losing bone mass faster than we rebuild it. • So It is vital to develop as much bone mass as you can before age 30. www.praxisorthocare.com

  5. Is the older people the only ones who need to be concerned about bone health? • It is a very crucial time during puberty for developing bone mass. • Compared to women, men have about 50 percent more body calcium when puberty is over and remain to have stronger bones throughout the rest of their lives. • During menopause when estrogen levels drop, bone loss occurs more rapidly. www.praxisorthocare.com

  6. Best ways to build healthy bones and slow down bone loss Bad health habits and a couch potato lifestyle will not do any favor to your bones. So it’s important to develop healthy habits now. To start it’s never too late. www.praxisorthocare.com

  7. Healthy diet a must • To form those calcium stores, add more calcium-rich foods to your diet. The main source of calcium are: • Dairy products • Almonds  • Green, leafy vegetables like broccoli and kale, salmon, sardines  • Soy products www.praxisorthocare.com

  8. Regular Exercise for good bones • Physical activity is not just good only for your heart but it’s very important to maintain strong bones. • For the elderly, physical activity may not increase bone mass but they shouldn’t not stop their exercise just yet. • Exercising four or five days a week can help in • Slow bone loss • Build muscles to strengthen bone • Improve balance and coordination www.praxisorthocare.com

  9. Orthopedic doctor recommends some common exercises: • Weight-bearing – This may include any exercise where you’re on your feet and working against gravity, such as jogging, walking, or jump roping. • Resistance – Using bands or weights, strengthens muscles and builds good bones. • Flexibility- Stretching and yoga may not build bones, but it does lead to healthier joints and fewer injuries. www.praxisorthocare.com

  10. A big no to cigarettes and alcohol • There are many studies that say that smoking and drinking are related to poor bone health. • More smoking has been related to increased risk for osteoporosis, lower bone density, and fractures. Smokers are at higher risk for osteoporosis. • Calcium is important for bones and alcohol can inhibit the absorption of calcium. www.praxisorthocare.com

Conclusion - "Your bone health is in your hands" • So many of us are more concerned about wrinkles skin as we grow older but we neglect our bone health. • Our bones play a vital role in our body and we need a healthy bone for a healthy life.
