How can middle-aged and elderly women supplement calcium effectively? Women should start to supplement calcium when they reach 40 years old, as calcium loss is increasing. Sisters, you need to get moving immediately to supplement calcium, otherwise you will suffer from osteoporosis. Back pain, loose teeth, and yellow hair will all come to you. We cannot rely solely on drugs to supplement calcium. We must take a comprehensive and all-round approach to supplement calcium, and the effect will be particularly good. I will now reveal how middle-aged and elderly women can best supplement calcium. As people's awareness of health care continues to improve, in order to prevent osteoporosis, many middle-aged and elderly female friends know the importance of taking calcium supplements every day. This change is gratifying. 1. Dietary calcium supplementation The primary reason for severe calcium deficiency in the elderly is monotonous food, so it is recommended to eat more calcium-rich foods. Which foods are rich in calcium? There are roughly the following categories: ① Dried potatoes, potato starch, and bread; ② Coriander, Chinese mustard, and rapeseed; ③ Salted duck eggs and preserved eggs; ④ Beans and bean products; ⑤ Milk and dairy products; ⑥ Fish; ⑦ Seafood, such as kelp, jellyfish, sea cucumber, laver, and dried shrimp. The best sources of calcium in food are milk and dairy products, which are not only rich in content but also have a high absorption rate. Beans and seafood are also rich in calcium. For example, dried shrimps contain up to 2,000 mg of calcium per 100 grams. People from different regions and with different economic conditions can choose to eat it. Secondly, we must pay attention to food processing. For example, although meat has a low calcium content, the calcium content of the broth can be significantly increased if it is stewed with the bones and a little vinegar is added. In addition, choosing calcium-fortified foods (such as calcium-fortified noodles) also plays a significant role in preventing calcium deficiency. 2. Western medicine calcium supplement Proper supplementation of calcium preparations is the main way to supplement calcium. However, before supplementing calcium, it should be clarified that calcium salt amount and calcium content are two different concepts. 3. Calcium supplementation with traditional Chinese medicine There are two types of calcium-rich medicines in traditional Chinese medicine. One is mineral medicines, such as gypsum, dragon bones, actinolite, hematite, etc.; the other is natural organisms rich in calcium, such as oysters, mother of pearl, tortoise shell, etc. However, these calcium-rich traditional Chinese medicines have extremely low solubility, and most of the effective drugs cannot be absorbed by the body because they are insoluble. Therefore, the usage of calcium-containing traditional Chinese medicine is large, and it is not advisable to use it simply for calcium supplementation. The methods introduced above are simple introductions on how middle-aged and elderly women can best supplement calcium. Friends who are also calcium deficient can try the above method. If women at this age do not show signs of calcium deficiency, it does not mean that you are not calcium deficient. You can eat more calcium-supplementing foods in your diet. In daily life, exercise more, enhance your resistance, and get more sun exposure. |
