Introduction:

Bones form the framework of our body, providing support and protection. As we age, bone density naturally decreases, increasing the risk of fractures and osteoporosis.



Why Bone Health Matters:

Strong bones are crucial for mobility, balance, and overall well-being. Weak bones can lead to conditions like osteoporosis, which affects millions worldwide.



Tips for Maintaining Bone Health:



1. Calcium and Vitamin D: Ensure you consume dairy, leafy greens, and fortified foods. Spend time in sunlight for natural vitamin D.





2. Regular Exercise: Weight-bearing exercises like walking, jogging, and resistance training strengthen bones.





3. Avoid Risk Factors: Limit smoking and alcohol consumption as they weaken bone density.







When to See an Orthopedic Doctor:

If you experience frequent fractures or joint pain, consult a specialist. Early intervention can prevent long-term complications.
