Tonawanda Osteoporosis & Fracture Prevention with Calcium and Vitamin D

Fractures are disruptive. Fractures are painful. Fractures keep you from doing what you want to do. Fractures are pricey in terms of time, money and suffering. How can osteoporotic fractures be prevented? Calcium and vitamin D supplementation for those with osteoporosis. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation sees many Tonawanda osteoporotic patients and recommends preventive measures like nutritional taking supplements to deter osteoporotic fractures and keep our Tonawanda chiropractic patients strong and in good shape.

SUPPLEMENTATION SAVES SUFFERING AND MONEY FOR FRACTURES

Your Tonawanda chiropractor is quite aware that supplementing with calcium and vitamin D supports the health of bones and helps them be strong. This feeding and strengthening preferably should begin in the teen years, but supplementing at any age is beneficial. A new study of osteoporosis patients in the European Union and the United States lists a some startling pieces of data:

(A) more than 500,000 fractures a year in the European Union and 300,000 in the United States could be prevented if every osteoporotic adult in the EU and US took calcium and vitamin D and

(B) lots of money could be saved: €5.7 billion in the EU and $3.3 billion in the US. (1)

Those are some enormous numbers! Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation surely encourages support of this effort to save money and, more importantly, suffering by supplementing with calcium and vitamin D3.

THE PROPER TYPE OF SUPPLEMENT IS KEY

Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is very confident that if you are making the effort to take calcium and vitamin D, you want it to work. You want them to be absorbed as much as possible. That’s where the type of vitamin D you choose is important. Attaining and maintaining adequate levels of vitamin D is also important for bone and general health. This is an issue for people around the world. Why? Absorption. Absorption may be hindered in conditions like obesity in which nutrients get trapped in the adipose tissue, in diseases that are recognized for decreased intestinal absorption, and with some neurological diseases that require special drugs that predispose the person’s system to not synthesize the calcifediol well. The recommendation in this new research paper is to take oral calcifediol (vitamin D3) as it is three to five times more powerful and has a greater rate of intestinal absorption.
