Bone is the basic form of the body so that his health must be considered in particular. One way is to avoid the five foods and beverages that could threaten the health of bone.
Foods or nutrients consumed could be positive and also negative for bone health, such as calcium which is good for bone health. But some other nutrients can actually cause bone weakening, threatening his health. There are 5 food and beverages should be reduced intake for healthy bones, as reported from Lifemojo, namely:
1. Carbonated beverages (soft drinks)
Most sodas contain phosphoric acid which can increase the rate of excretion of calcium through the urine. In addition, these drinks are also often more preferable than other beverages that are healthier, thereby reducing overall intake kalisum.
2. Salt
Consumption of excess salt or sodium levels that can cause loss of calcium-specific so that the bone will weaken over time. The experts said that a person will lose 40 mg of calcium in the urine every 2300 mg of sodium consumption. In addition to table salt, salt is also frequently found in almost all processed foods such as breakfast cereals and fast food.
Eating foods rich in potassium can help reduce the loss of calcium in the body and help balance sodium levels in the blood. Potassium-rich foods such as sweet potatoes, bananas, tomatoes and spinach.
3. Caffeine
Caffeine is not just found in coffee, but also in energy drinks. Too much caffeine can threaten the health of bone. To overcome this try to limit intake of coffee, choose a drink of tea because there is a possibility of compounds in plants can protect the bone and add milk to coffee to reduce the effect of weakening the bone.
4. Alcohol
Studies show excessive alcohol consumption can affect bone health and increase the risk of osteoporosis. This is because the consumption of alcohol can interfere with the pancreas and the absorption of calcium and vitamin D. In addition, alcohol also affects the function of osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) and reduced estrogen which makes slowing bone remodeling.
5. Hydrogenated oils
Studies show vitamin K will be destroyed when liquid vegetable oils are converted into solid form through a process of hydrogenation (saturating). While vitamin K is needed for strong bones and calcium absorption. For that try to replace it with canola oil and olive oil.
Likewise with a sweet tooth. Too many sweet foods or beverages was not good for strength or bone mass. "Intake of sweet foods or beverages may reduce the absorption of calcium which is needed by the bone," said dr. Samuel Oetoro, M.S. SpGK a news conference in Jakarta Restaurant Batula. Press conference held this Produgen milk producers in order to launch a national campaign under the theme of Strong Women Strong Bones. Campaign to be held in 9 major cities in Indonesia will be enlivened with the game 9 teams barongsai that all players are women.
In addition to sweet foods or drinks, continued Samuel, which should be avoided or reduced the consumption of carbonated beverages, alcohol, coffee, salt, saturated fats and oils as has been described above. While the food is encouraged as much calcium is the consumption of milk and other dairy products, multiply eating fish, fruit or dark green vegetables, beans and tofu and tempeh. "If we had a lot of little 'save' calcium, it already is one way of preventing osteoporosis (bone fracture)," the doctors say this nutritionist.
