Dr. Oz and Brittle Bones: Rebuilding and Breaking Down with Natural Methods Instead of Drugs
Dr. Oz talked about the health risk to women and even men over the age of 30 who can be subject to the weakening of bone tissue which leads to osteopenia and eventually to osteoporosis when left unchecked. There are natural methods that you can employ to reverse this process of breaking down while you begin to rebuild healthy bone tissue.
Many drugs are being identified which actually were supposed to work, but are indicated in making bone tissue weaker which can result in more fractures, breaks, and debilitation. You don’t have to go the ‘drug’ route and put your bones at further risk.
The Doctor Oz guest mentioned that smoking, poor diet, lack of certain types of exercise, and excess alcohol consumption can be responsible for bone loss. Women over the age of 30 are particularly at risk for suffering from fractures. Once you have a fracture, it is more likely that you’ll have another at some point unless you deal with the condition of your bone tissue through a healthy Lifestyle.
You can slow, stop, and even reverse the process of degeneration, if you learn to engage in healthy Lifestyle practices which support regeneration of bone tissue. You can eat foods rich in minerals like calcium, silica, boron, and many other trace minerals. Dark leafy Greens, carrots, tofu, yogurt, and other foods are high in calcium and you can take supplemental sources of calcium as long as they are bio-available.
Most people don’t realize that commercial salt can reduce the absorption of calcium as can pH imbalances in the body. It is important to choose Sea Salt, instead of commercial brands. Furthermore, if a person is deficient in vitamin D3; then the parathyroid doesn’t support the metabolic processes that circulate or eliminate calcium from bone tissue. Calcium is constantly going into and leaving bone tissue…it is an active and dynamic process. It requires your daily attention to a healthy whole foods diet and adequate supplementation.
This is a complex issue and we’re not going to be able to cover all of the aspects right now, but it’s a good place to begin to get your minerals from your whole foods. If you are going to use a supplement, then the best choice is the Liquid Ionic Minerals which are easily absorbed and assimilated when compared to other nutritional supplements.
