Strong bones form the foundation of your body, helping prevent osteoporosis and fractures, and are essential for health at every age.
Get Your Calcium Fix
Include milk, cheese, and yogurt in your diet. Add leafy greens, almonds, tofu, and fortified cereals for calcium-rich nutrition.
Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium. Get sunlight daily, and eat eggs, fatty fish, and fortified foods for bone strength.
Don't Forget Vitamin D
Engage in weight-bearing exercises like walking and jogging. Include strength training with resistance bands or weights. Even dancing helps build strong bones!
Exercise is Key
Limit Bone Drainers
Reduce soda, salty snacks, and caffeine. Limit alcohol and quit smoking, as these habits can weaken bones and lower bone density.
Maintain a Healthy Weight
Being underweight raises fracture risk. Stay active, eat balanced meals, and maintain a healthy weight to keep your bones strong and supported.
Bone-Friendly Habits
Get 7–9 hours of quality sleep, manage stress to reduce cortisol levels, and limit sodium intake to protect your bone health.
Check Your Bone Density
If you're over 50, ask your doctor about a DEXA scan. Early detection of bone loss leads to better prevention and care.
