EDITOR’S PICK:
We need our bones to carry our bodies as we age, so we won’t need someone to carry us or move us around in a wheelchair. Some people lose bone mass as they age.
Due to a lack of calcium in the body, they may develop fragile, porous bones. Some elderly people are disabled as a result of bone fractures.
Some people age with back pain or a hunched posture. Some people can’t walk for long distances because their bones don’t have enough density.
In this article on EKO HOT BLOG, we would be looking at some foods that can keep your bone strong even at old age.
You should consume calcium-rich foods such as milk, cheese, and yogurt. Your body will benefit from the natural calcium found in them, especially if you consume them on a daily basis. Calcium can also be obtained from vegetables and orange juice.
Although your body can produce vitamin D on its own when exposed to the early morning sun, you may not always have access to the sun, so you can get vitamin D from milk and yogurt.
Consume whole-grain foods such as nuts and beans. They contain the essential nutrients required for strong bones. Soybeans are also edible.

However, avoid processed foods because they lack the natural nutrients that your bones require. When you go to the supermarket to buy food, always check the label to see if it contains vitamin D and calcium.
