Bone Health and Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis doesn't need to be inevitable; clinical evidence shows that bone loss can be slowed or even halted with the right diet, supplements, exercise & treatment...
An adult human has 206 bones, which are constantly being renewed and remodeled. Bones perform several important roles in the body. Bones form a framework that supports the body and protects soft organs. They are an essential part of movement because muscles attach here and the arrangement of bones determines the type of movement that can be done.
Bones are important storehouses of minerals, including the major buffer, calcium. They also contain an inner core of marrow that produces blood and immune cells.
Most people do not think about bone health until they are in their later years. This is a mistake because significant increases in bone density can only be made in childhood or early adulthood (up to age 30). For the remainder of our lives the goal is to maintain our bones.
Osteomalacia is an inadequacy of bone mineralization. There is a normal amount of bone but it is weak. Weight bearing bones may be deformed. Eating a well balanced diet that provides sufficient amounts of protein, calcium and trace minerals can rectify this problem.
A healthy diet, with sufficient protein intake, is one protective factor against bone loss. Dietary deficiencies of protein cause bone loss because the bone is constantly remodeling itself. Up to 7% of our bone mass is turned over every week.
Choose lean meats, fermented dairy products and legumes to fill your daily protein requirements. Supplement with protein powder or amino acid complex if you cannot consume enough protein.
There are a multitude of minerals that form the matrix of the bone. Deficiency in any one of these nutrients can lead to bone loss. Minerals can be lost in the cooking process so eat your vegetables and fruits raw or lightly steamed. Drink filtered or spring water. If you drink reverse osmosis or distilled water replace the missing minerals with a supplement.
vitamin D helps bring calcium into the bone. It is one of the fat-soluble vitamins that are poorly absorbed through the digestive process as we age. In areas away from the equator, skin production of vitamin D is limited during certain times of the year. Eating vitamin D rich foods like fish and egg yolks, and taking vitamin D supplements, will maintain your bone density.
The body's Acid/Alkali balance plays an important role in bone health. Acid is produced in the body through normal metabolic processes. Calcium is the major body buffer and is taken from the bone when intake of calcium is insufficient. Many people are acidic because they use substances that must be buffered by the body. Eliminating the use of caffeine, tobacco, and carbonated drinks decreases the acidic load on the body. Stress also increases acidity and may be a factor in bone loss.
Boron
Boron is used for the normal growth and renewal of bone and muscle ...
Boron is a mineral that is needed in small amounts by the body and is therefore called a trace mineral. It is needed for the normal growth and renewal of bone and muscle. It supports bone growth by aiding in the conversion of vitamin D into its active form. Vitamin D then regulates the uptake of bone building minerals in the intestine and oversees the cells that regulate the process of bone renewal.
Boron keeps levels of calcium and magnesium balanced in the body and thus supports the normal functioning of muscles. Finally, boron facilitates the production of hormones, like estrogen and testosterone. Estrogen enhances the activity of bone-building osteoclasts and testosterone increases the body's muscle building abilities. Boron is commonly recommended by natural health care practitioners for osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
In Canada the use of boron was recently approved for sale. It is difficult to find boron in multivitamin/mineral supplements or bone supporting formulas, but a few do exist. Boron may also be available as a single mineral in tablet form. Chelated or citrated boron supplements are easier for the body to use. Chelated simply means that boron is bonded to a protein molecule, for example aspartate or glycinate, and citrated means that boron is bonded to a citrate molecule. Both processes enhance boron's absorption in the intestinal tract.
