matters needing attention

Research data show that in the long-term low calcium diet group, the risk of osteoporosis in the elderly can reach more than 79%, while only 1 / 4 of the long-term intake of calcium rich diet group suffer from osteoporosis. Therefore, calcium is best obtained from food. Even if osteoporosis has been confirmed, doctors will guide patients to improve their diet and take calcium properly. Everyone (especially the middle-aged and elderly) should pay great attention to calcium supplement through food. Milk, bone soup, seafood and green leafy vegetables are rich in calcium ions that can be absorbed by the human body. Eating more of these foods is conducive to increasing calcium intake. At present, medical nutritionists especially recommend milk. Middle aged and elderly people insist on drinking 500 ml milk every day, which can greatly reduce the incidence of osteoporosis.
