Why do our bones get weak?
-
due to a calcium deficiency -
Bone loss in women occurs fastest in the first few years after menopause, but bone loss continues into old age. Factors that can contribute to bone loss include having a diet low in calcium, not exercising, smoking, and taking certain medications such as corticosteroids.
Good sources of calcium include:
- milk, cheese and other dairy foods.
- green leafy vegetables, such as broccoli, cabbage and okra, but not spinach.
- soya beans.
- tofu.
- soya drinks with added calcium.
- nuts.
- bread and anything made with fortified flour.
- fish where you eat the bones, such as sardines and pilchards.

In general, white, older women are the most likely to have bone loss. This increases their risk of breaking a bone. Brittle, fragile bones can be caused by anything that makes your body destroy too much bone, or keeps your body from making enough bone. Weak bones can break easily, even without an obvious injury.Comment
