Bony Matters

Under Family Category: Children in Family,Family Health,Family Parenting

Picture of Bony Matters ImageDairy is the holy grail for strong bones. But if it’s just not your cup of tea, there are other ways to get the calcium you need.
Until we break or bruise one, bones are the quiet achievers of the body. They get on with their job of holding up our skin and protecting our vital organs, with generally little fuss.
Although we tend to think of bones as static and solid, they’re living tissues that are constantly breaking down and being reformed all our lives.

We need to develop a good “bone bank” so when we start to lose bone density in our 40s, and beyond, we’ve got less chance of developing osteoporosis, or weak bones.
Calcium is crucial in developing and maintaining strong bones and the best source of calcium Is dairy foods. Eating two to three serves of milk, yoghurt or cheese each day is the simplest way to meet our daily requirements.
But what do you do if you or your children don’t eat dairy, don’t like it, think it’s fattening, or have been told to cut it out of your diet?

Dr Mary Anne Papalia, a consultant endrocrinologist at the Western Hospital in Footscray, Melbourne, stresses that even if it is difficult, we all – especially children and teenagers – have to try to get our two to three serves of dairy, or an equivalent every day.

And it’s important we do this throughout our lives to ensure we have enough calcium to keep the balance in our bone bank healthy.
If you or your children don’t eat enough dairy products, there are other foods that contain calcium, says Dr Papalia.

Great post.
Though I wist there was more details like what other food has enough calcium. I only know of cheese and butter. But teenager who are figure conscious may refuse to eat any of these “Fattening” food. Any suggestion?
