90-year-old Grandpa Wang accidentally broke his bone at home. Grandpa said: Eat what you need to replenish what you need. If you have a fracture, you should drink bone soup. As a result, the fracture did not heal even though he drank the soup every day. So is it useful to drink more bone soup after a fracture? Pingjiang County First People's Hospital has the answer for you. Bone broth is extremely low in calcium: Experimental studies have shown that the calcium content in bone broth is much lower than that in milk and other foods. The calcium content of bone broth without vinegar is only one-third of that in tap water and only one-hundredth of that in milk. Drinking 25 liters of bone broth is equivalent to the calcium intake of a small box of milk. Bone soup is not effective in supplementing calcium: The calcium in bones mainly exists in the form of hydroxyapatite, which is basically insoluble in water, so the calcium content in bone soup is very low. The highest content in bone soup is phosphorus, and high phosphorus intake will greatly affect the body's absorption of calcium. Fats and Purines in Bone Broth: The white turbid substance in bone soup is mainly fat. Drinking too much will not only not play a big role in calcium supplementation, but will easily cause fat accumulation. At the same time, bone soup that has been boiled for a long time contains a large amount of purine, which is also very unfriendly to patients with high uric acid or gout. Dietary recommendations after a fracture: Avoid smoking and drinking, avoid high-salt and high-sugar foods, and avoid eating raw, cold, spicy, greasy, and fried foods. After a fracture, the diet should be light, delicious and easy to digest, such as fresh vegetables, rice porridge, bean products, and pasta. You should also eat more foods rich in zinc, iron, manganese, and high-quality protein, and appropriately supplement foods rich in vitamin D. Of course, there should also be enough calcium in a normal diet, among which milk, sesame paste, dried shrimps, seafood, beans and other foods are better sources of calcium. In summary, drinking bone soup after a fracture is not an effective way to supplement calcium, but may bring some health risks. Fracture patients should pay attention to balanced nutrition and appropriately supplement protein, vitamins and minerals to promote fracture healing.
