Calcium is a mineral that is important for your body. Each day, we lose calcium through our skin, nails, hair, sweat, urine and feces, but our bodies cannot produce new calcium. As we grow older the amount of Calcium absorbed in our body — from Food or Supplements decreases. When we don’t get enough calcium for our body’s needs, it is taken from our bones. Low calcium absorption from Food or Supplements causes our bones to lose their density and is the major cause for Osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is Common, Serious & Costly.
Conventional treatment for osteoporosis is prescribing Calcium supplements. The term in Ayurveda for this depletion of bone tissue in ‘Asthikshaya’. In a patient with this conditions, the pathways for conveying the nutrients in food / supplements to the bone tissue are blocked. For such a patient, spending money on calcium supplements is as good as flushing money down the drain.
Ayurveda has proven methods to restore the channels that carry nutrients to the bone tissues. When these channels are restored, the metabolism of bone tissues can be enhanced through nourishing nutritional supplements.
While post menopausal women are a high risk group for osteoporosis, this disease can affect both the young and the old. Are you at risk of Osteoporosis ? Do you need to restore the metabolism of your bone tissues?
