Osteoporosis is a low calcium count in bones which makes them weak and prone to facture. There are some risk factors such as alcoholism, smoking, and old age. There are several key nutrients adults need to supply their bodies with to make their bones strong. Calcium is an important component of bone tissue and vitamin D3 helps with calcium absorption. Magnesium plays a role in building strong bones too. Eating a variety of healthy foods can help you get enough Calcium, Magnesium and Vitamin D on a daily basis. Nutrients are important to the absorption of Calcium and people with osteoporosis should include Calcium rich food and Vitamin D in their diet.
