Diet & Lifestyle Advise

Healthy eating habits:

  • Add foods high in calcium, such as milk, curd, paneer, cheese, ragi, sesame seeds, and almonds.
  • Make sure you get enough vitamin D from foods like eggs, salmon, fortified milk, and mushrooms.
  • To promote bone health, consume meals high in protein (dal, legumes, eggs, lean meat).
  • To improve vitamin D synthesis, spend 15 to 20 minutes in the morning in the sun.
  • Reduce your intake of carbonated drinks, salt, and caffeine because they accelerate the loss of calcium.

  • Steer clear of alcohol and tobacco since they weaken bones and decrease the absorption of calcium.
