Osteoporosis makes bones weak and brittle, so fragile that even minor stressors like coughing or bending over can break them. Hip, wrist, and spine fractures brought on by osteoporosis are the most frequent.
Bone is a living tissue that undergoes continuous deterioration and replacement. Osteoporosis develops when the production of new bone is insufficient to counteract the loss of existing bone.
People of all races can develop osteoporosis. The risk is greatest for white and Asian women, particularly older women who have passed menopause. Medication, a balanced diet, and weight-bearing exercise can improve already brittle bones or prevent bone loss.
Symptoms
Early on in the process of bone loss, there are often no symptoms. However, after osteoporosis has compromised your bones, you may experience the following signs and symptoms:
- Vertebral fracture or collapse resulting in back pain
- Height decline with time
- A hunched position
- A bone that fractures far more quickly than is typical
Causes
New bone is created and old bone is broken down as your bones are constantly being renewed. Your bone mass increases when you’re young because your body produces new bone more quickly than it destroys old bone. The majority of people reach their peak bone mass by age 30 after this process slows down in their early 20s. Bone mass decreases more quickly with ageing than it is gained.
Your bone mass from your youth has a bearing on how likely you are to acquire osteoporosis. Peak bone mass varies by ethnic group and is partially hereditary. The more bone you have “in the bank” and the higher your peak bone mass, the less probable it is that you will get osteoporosis as you get older.
Why calcium, magnesium and vitamin D₃?
- According to research, calcium intake may lower the chance of developing osteoporosis when accompanied with enough vitamin D, a nutritious diet, and regular exercise.
- While calcium and magnesium play a part in the formation and maintenance of bones and teeth, they also play a role in the maintenance of proper muscular function and are a crucial component in the preservation of good health. Magnesium contributes to the development and maintenance of bones and teeth.
- Calcium and phosphorous are more easily absorbed and used when vitamin D is present.
