Both underweight and overweight conditions affect bones.
Instructions:
Aim for a BMI in the healthy range (18.5–24.9).
Combine a balanced diet with regular exercise to maintain weight.
Avoid rapid weight loss, which can weaken bones.
Tips:
Include muscle-strengthening exercises to support joints and bones.
Monitor bone density if you have a history of low body weight.
Why it works:
Healthy weight prevents excessive stress on bones while ensuring hormonal balance that supports bone density.
📝 Hack 6: Limit Alcohol and Quit Smoking
Lifestyle habits directly impact bone strength.
Instructions:
Limit alcohol to moderate levels: up to 1 drink/day for women, 2 for men.
Quit smoking entirely.
Tips:
Seek support groups or professional help for quitting smoking.
Replace alcohol with non-alcoholic, nutrient-rich beverages.
Why it works:
Excess alcohol and smoking interfere with bone remodeling and calcium absorption, accelerating bone loss.
📝 Hack 7: Incorporate Bone-Building Supplements Wisely
Supplements can fill nutritional gaps.
Instructions:
Consider calcium, vitamin D, magnesium, or vitamin K2 supplements if diet alone is insufficient.
Always consult your healthcare provider before starting new supplements.
Tips:
Avoid megadoses; more is not always better.
Take calcium in divided doses for better absorption.
Why it works:
Targeted supplementation ensures your body has all the nutrients needed for bone density maintenance.
