“We Want Calcium! We Want Calcium!” Music to your New York City chiropractor’s ear!
Because calcium is a key building block of bone and bone mass along with Vitamin D and other nutrients, it is imperative to feed your bones the nutrients they need to be strong and healthy over the length of a lifetime! Building bone mass is extremely important and must start while we are young, particularly in the growing adolescent years. (1) Certain bone diseases such as Osteoporosis are common among the elderly due to the fact that we tend to lose half our bone mass as we age. Rosenberg Wellness Center encourages our young patients to build a strong bone mass while they are young which will allow them to lose half of it without suffering osteoporosis side effects such as fracture. Regardless of your age and/or osteoporosis stage, Rosenberg Wellness Center wants to share with you information about calcium supplementation that can help you treat as well as prevent osteoporosis and its affiliated problems.
Diet suggestions for osteoporosis prevention and treatment are valuable and demand careful implementation. Osteoporosis is a familiar disease among older people, especially postmenopausal women. Calcium supplementation is useful in decreasing the occurrence of osteoporosis. Your New York City chiropractor is educated in the administration of calcium supplementation as well as the other elements working with calcium to maximize your health response. Use Rosenberg Wellness Center’s osteoporosis and nutritional expertise for your treatment.
What are the various calcium sources that doctors recommend? There are a lot of different calcium sources out there which include: milk, chews, and supplements. We want you to get calcium in any way you can, however, some sources are more suitable than others. Calcium supplementation has some advantages over other means like milk drink and milk chews by increasing calcium in the serum. (1) A good thing!
And what about “brand”? Rosenberg Wellness Center often is asked if brand x is “ok” or not. Our best answer suggestion is to have you check the type of calcium. Calcium citrate is generally better absorbed than other types, but talk with us about your calcium supplement, whatever it may be. In our New York City chiropractic practice, we’re here for your nutritional needs and questions.
