CALCIUM FOR OUR BONES
Nature has given us two strong legs, strong arms, a true backbone, but sometimes we cannot withstand the traction of the earth and turn, and then the bone breaks. We need enough calcium to be strong.
Why do bones break? After all, we had to be nice and healthy. Is it because of a lack of building bone material called calcium? We talk to Vida Kleziene, a therapist who advises patients with osteoporosis, about the benefits of this mineral.
Lack of calcium
Children have poor teeth growth and germination begins to deteriorate rapidly. Spinal deformity, children stop growing, can develop rickets. Lack of calcium, broken bones, broken nails, can occur in infants and the elderly. A deficiency of calcium may impair immunity. Then we become susceptible to colds and allergies. Tired of lip herpes, even anemia. Calcium deficiency can cause muscle cramps, twitching, joint pains, drowsiness, and constipation.
Calcium is especially important for pregnant women. After all, a baby’s bones need much more to form. When calcium is deficient, pregnant women have decaying teeth. There is a lot of truth in the mothers’ moaning that each child has taken one tooth.
Does movement help?
Bones need to get a lot of work before they can build up enough calcium. Movement is also important because calcium in the bones does not decrease. If we just sit, lie down and ride our cars, we will not take advantage of nature’s ability to move.
Then nature will not understand us – the bones will think they are no longer needed by us. Really, why try to get that person moving if he goes from place to place by car? What is unnecessary quickly ceases to function. By understanding this, our bones will release all of their calcium reserves and will no longer build up.
That’s why you need to move as much as possible – walking, jogging, cycling. Any kind of exercise that we get off the ground is suitable. After all, this is the bone system. Replenishing calcium is not that easy and losing it is very easy.
What does the body do away with calcium?
The most damaging is coffee, alcohol and sugar – the trace element calcium tends to bind to and leave our bodies, weakening our bones and teeth. And in order to regain calcium, we need enough vitamin D. Usually a person weighing 75 kg has 1 kg of calcium. 99% all of our calcium is in bones and teeth, and 1 percent. – in blood and tissues.
However, it is not the case that we have the same amount of calcium all the time – it is stored in the bones, so we lose it again. If we lose enough of this micronutrient with food or lose it by drinking too much coffee or alcohol, we become deficient in calcium.
In this case, the blood draws calcium from the bones and teeth. Bone tissue is renewed every 7-10 years in adults and every 2 years in children. We think we are the same, but that is not really the case. Changes are not only psychological, they occur in every cell of our physical body.
How to Replenish Calcium Stocks?
Need to drink milk, eat cheese, curd. Fat curd mixed with sea buckthorn berries and honey contains the most calcium. Sea buckthorn berries must be natural, sugar free – after all, sugar destroys calcium. For the same reason, you should not eat sweet, store-bought cheeses. The best products are cottage cheese, natural berries and honey, green vegetables, seafood.
Do you know that:
• Human bones contain 1 kg of calcium, body tissues 4 g and blood 0.4 g (99% of calcium is in bone).
• In the twentieth year of life, 97% of the population develops. bone tissue;
• Bone tissue is fully regenerated in adults within 7-10 years and in children in 2 years.
• the sun is the main source of vitamin D, which is essential for the intestinal absorption of calcium;
• Tennis player’s racket’s bone tissue is 30 percent. denser than other hands;
• The bone tissue of runner vertebral bodies is denser;
• astronauts lose part of their bone mass because space is not affected by earth’s gravity;
• Spot jumps (about 50 jumps per day) can increase bone density in premenopausal women (40-55 years).
