One of the main diagnostic tests that Hollywood Diagnostics Center offers is the bone density test/scan. This test is done using a specialized form of x-ray technology that is used to measure bone mineral density. A bone density scan is most often recommended to assist healthcare providers in diagnosing osteoporosis. What is Osteoporosis? A person with osteoporosis has weakened bones that are more likely to break. And although the condition is not reversible, there are things that people can do to prevent further bone loss and rebuild bones. It will require medication, a nutrient heavy diet, and exercise. Bones consist of living tissue, and as these tissues break down, the body discards them and creates new ones to replace them. When a person has osteoporosis, there is a disruption to this balance. It can be hastened by one of three things. People start losing lose too much old bone. People don’t create enough new bone, or both. Osteoporosis gradually progresses over a number of years, A doctor diagnoses osteoporosis using a bone density scan in people at an increased risk of the condition. Can You Reverse Osteoporosis? In some cases, a person may be able to reverse osteoporosis. Some strategies can prevent future bone loss and reduce the risk of fractures. And certain medications may help a person rebuild bone mass, essentially reversing osteoporosis. There are several ways a person can prevent bone loss. These include eating a nutritious diet, doing regular exercise, taking calcium and vitamin D supplements, avoiding excess alcohol and smoking, and minimizing steroid use. 1 – Eat a Nutritious Diet Eating a varied, nutrient-dense diet is important for bone health. It is especially important to include foods rich in vitamin D and calcium. Vitamin D increases calcium absorption, so the two supplements are most effective when people take them together. Although calcium and vitamin D is most commonly associated with strong bones, they are not the only nutrients that contribute to bone health. An osteoporosis study found that fruits, vegetables, seafood, and dairy products are beneficial for healthy bones. 2 – Take Supplements If a person has osteoporosis, they may benefit from taking calcium and vitamin D supplements. An analysis of osteoporosis studies found that people who took these supplements were 15% less likely to have bone fractures. It is important to include calcium and vitamin D from food sources. Dairy products are good sources of calcium. People can get vitamin D from trout, salmon, and mushrooms. They can also get it from small amounts of sun exposure. 3 – Exercise Regularly Weight-bearing exercise and resistance training are essential for maintaining bone density, especially as people get older. Because bones are made of living and changing tissues, they respond to change. When under stress, for example, during exercise, they react by building more bone tissue. A benefit, in addition to maintaining bone density, regular exercise can strengthen a person’s muscles and improve coordination, reducing their risk of falls. Whether you jog, walk, climb stairs, or lift weights, all can help reduce risks. 4 – Avoid Excessive Alcohol & Smoking Quitting smoking altogether and reducing alcohol intake are both associated with healthier bones. In general, avoiding these also lowers a person’s risk of other illnesses.

Kosti imaju vrlo važne funkcije u našem tijelu – pružaju strukturu, omogućuju nam kretanje, štite mozak, srce i druge organe te pohranjuju minerale poput kalcija i fosfora. Zato je vrlo važno izgraditi snažne i zdrave kosti tijekom djetinjstva i adolescencije, ali i nastaviti poduzimati korake kako bi zaštitili zdravlje kostiju u odrasloj dobi. Naše kosti se stalno mijenjaju – nova koštana masa se formira, a stara raspada. Kad smo mladi, nova se koštana masa izgrađuje brže no što se razbije stara, pa se ukupna količina koštane mase povećava. Većina ljudi najveću koštanu masu ima oko tridesete godine, nakon čega se nastavlja preoblikovanje kosti, ali gubimo malo više koštane mase no što dobivamo nove. Vjerojatnost razvoja osteoporoze, bolesti koja uvelike može utjecati na kvalitetu vašeg života,ovisi o tome koliko koštane mase dobijemo do trenutka kada dostignemo dob od 30 godina i koliko brzo gubimo nakon toga. Što je veća vaša masa kosti u tom razdoblju kad dostižemo vrhunac koštane mase u tridesetima, to jeviše kosti kojih imamo “u zalihama" za kasnije, i manja je vjerojatnost da ćemo razviti osteoporozu kako starimo. Tiha bolest U slučaju kada gubimo previše koštane mase, razvija se osteoporoza. Kosti gube masu i postaju toliko krhke da se vrlo lako lome. Osobe s osteoporozom najčešće trpe lomove kostiju zglobova, kralježnice i kukova. No, gubitak kostiju događa se tijekom dugog vremenskog razdoblja i mnogi ne znaju da imaju slabe kosti sve dok ne pretrpe lom. No, nikad nije kasno za brigu o kostima. Donosimo vam savjete kako brinuti o zdravlju svojih kostiju u svakoj životnoj dobi, da bi ih ojačali i minimizirali mogućnost lomova. Za jačanje kostiju potrebna vam je samo minuta dnevno Kao i mišići, kosti također postaju jače uztjelovježbu. Najbolje vježbe za zdrave kosti su hodanje, penjanje stepenicama, dizanje utega i ples. Idealno bi bilo vježbati 30 minuta dnevno, no nedavna studija utvrdila je da i samo 60 do 120 sekundi trčanja dnevnomože poboljšatizdravlje kostiju za 4-6%. “Vitamin sunce“ Vitamin D je kritična hranjiva tvar za izgradnju kostiju. Poboljšava apsorpciju kalcija iz crijeva, pomaže povećanju gustoće kostiju i povećava funkciju mišića, smanjujući rizik od prijeloma. No optimalnukoličinu vitamina D teško je dobiti samo od hrane, pa preporučujemo 15 minuta dnevno izlagati se suncu, kako bi tijelo upilo dovoljno ovog vrijednog vitamina. Hrana za snažne kosti – B!TONIC Silver Bones Prehrana igra vrlo važnu ulogu u očuvanju zdravlja kostiju. Važno je imati uravnoteženu prehranu bogatu kalcijem i vitaminom D.
