The Hard Facts about Brittle Bones.
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body and it plays a vital role in your everyday health. A diet deficient in Calcium can cause bones to become fragile, brittle and susceptible to fractures. This can lead to a condition called "osteoporosis", characterized by a reduction in bone density which afflicts millions of people throughout the world. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, some 1.3 million bone fractures a year are attributed to osteoporosis.
Because menopause causes a drop in the body's ability to assimilate Calcium, all women have a greater chance of developing varying degrees of osteoporosis. Even men need to be aware of their Calcium intake to prevent unnecessary bone thinning. Many people perceive osteoporosis as an ailment that strikes older individuals. According to recent medical reports, a diet void of Calcium-rich foods, lack of exercise and a stressful lifestyle can alter the body's ability to effectively absorb bone-strengthening Calcium at any age.
