Osteoporosis Natural Treatments & Home Remedies

 

Eat Healthy to Avoid Osteoporosis

One good natural treatment for osteoporosis is to eat the right food. Most people believe that eating dairy products and other animal proteins will keep them from losing bone mass. This idea is actually incorrect and the animal proteins will contribute to osteoporosis.  Eating too much protein makes the blood acidic (proteins are made out of amino acids).  The body likes to be slightly alkaline and so it pulls calcium from the bones to bind up and eliminate the excess acid.  It is a hard cold fact that countries that eat the most dairy have the highest hip fracture rates.  You can look at a chart of this and the hip fracture rate follows the dairy consumption right up the line. You should stay away from any animal proteins as much as possible. There are ample proteins in grains, legumes and vegetables.  Click here to read about Plenty of Protein in a Vegan Diet.  When you’re diagnosed with osteoporosis you should eat more vegetables, fruit, and starches. These food groups will give you all the nutrients and minerals that your body will need to strengthen your bones. You should also stay away from salt and sugar because they both cause you to gain weight. Most foods that are processed contain both salt and sugar. It is best to make meals out of fresh vegetables, fruits and grains because then you can avoid ingesting the extra salt, sugar and chemical additives so often found in processed foods.  This is by far the best natural treatment and home remedy for osteoporosis.  Milk and milk products are dangerous.
