Osteoporosis treatment with alternative medicine
Osteoporosis is more common in older women, men can also have osteoporosis. If you have osteoporosis it means that you have lost some bone material. Your bones become less dense. This makes them more prone to break (fracture). Osteoporosis mainly affects older people but it can affect someone of any age. One of every 2 women and 1 in every 4 men older than 50 years of age will have an osteoporosis related fracture in their lifetime.
A family history of osteoporosis, the foods you eat, your hormone make-up, your age, and how you live your life all play a role in causing osteoporosis. Certain factors are linked to the development of osteoporosis or contribute to an individuals likelihood of developing the disease. These are called risk factors. Many people with osteoporosis have several of these risk factors, but others who develop osteoporosis have no identified risk factors.
Ayurveda system to treat osteoporosis:
Increased vata causes the thinning and increasing poroxity of the bone, resulting osteoporosis.
Testosterone and prostatic secretion and estrogen are vital for maintaining strong bones for men. But men are more prone to bone loss due to bad lifestyle habits that includes smoking, excessive alcohol, taking steroids and lack of exercise. As women grow older, vata increases and the postmenopausal body produces less or no estrogen necessary for maintaining bone metabolism and using calcium, magnesium, zinc and other
minerals for bone growth, all contribute to a deleterious effect on bone mass.
