The deficiency of calcium over a lifetime contributes to osteoporosis. As a result of a low calcium intake, bone density diminishes, early bone loss occurs, and fractures are more likely to occur. In spite of the fact that osteoporosis cannot be completely reversed, there are ways to manage it.
Medication is often the initial ‘go-to’ for treatment when something goes wrong within the body. However, there are many natural methods that you can implement every day, such as diet, exercise, and supplements, to treat osteoporosis before having to turn to medication.
Here are five alternative ways to treat osteoporosis without medication:
CHOOSING A DIET HIGH IN CALCIUM AND VITAMIN D
The old saying "you are what you eat" rings true when it comes to bone health.
A diet that's jam-packed (pardon the pun) with calcium and vitamin D can do wonders for bone health and osteoporosis. By putting these delicious and nutritious foods into your body, you're taking active steps towards building strong bones and maintaining immense immunity.
WebMD shares a list of superfoods for your bones that includes dark leafy greens, citrus fruits, and fatty fishes, amongst others, for bone-boosting nutrients.
By making mindful choices every meal time and trying to add in these particular food groups, you can eat your way to healthy bones, one bite at a time.
MINDFUL MOVEMENT
Your body is the vessel that carries you through life, so taking good care of your physical health is kind of a big deal.
You can support your overall mind-body health by staying active and practicing bone density exercises as a natural way of treating osteoporosis.
Motion is lotion, so by moving your body, you're giving your bones a workout to keep striving and strengthening.
When it comes to your workout routine, switch it up. Diversify your movement, direction, and speed to prevent muscle tension in your bones due to repetitive exercises. Rather than running or hiking, why not try Tai Chi, yoga, or a bit of good ol' dancing?
The key here is to do what feels good to you and your body.
ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS
According to traditional Chinese medicine, Acupuncture is a type of therapy for healing. It is believed that this method stimulates various organ and body functions by placing very thin needles at strategic points on the body, so it’s no wonder it’s recommended for the treatment of osteoporosis.
Don’t just believe us - science backs this theory up!
The National Library for Medicine conducted a study on Acupuncture for primary osteoporosis and found that this alternative treatment effectively alleviates pain and promotes healing, two benefits that those with osteoporosis would love to reap.
NATURAL HERBS
Herbal remedies have recently gained popularity as a natural treatment for Osteoporosis. Very Well Health shares a list of Medicinal Herbs With the Best Benefits for Treating Osteoporosis—included in this list are red clover, Turmeric, thyme, red sage, and horsetail.
Turmeric, in particular, is an excellent natural treatment for Osteoporosis due to its anti-inflammatory properties.
Studies have found that Turmeric's active ingredient, curcumin, may help with Osteoporosis. In fact, findings in this study show that participants taking a curcumin supplement for six months showed significant improvements in 57 people with low bone density.
SUPPLEMENTS TO SUPPORT BONE HEALTH AND SYMPTOMS
The health of your bones depends on a good diet packed with Calcium and regular exercise. However, with the depreciation of food quality, finding this essential mineral in food can be tricky.
The recommended daily intake of calcium is 1,000 mg for women age 50 and younger and men after 70 and younger or 1,200 mg for women over 50 and men over 70.
Calcium supplements may be beneficial if you are unable to get enough calcium through your diet. That’s exactly what Marah Natural’s SAC Formulation Technology has been designed for!
