What Our Dietitians Want You to Know About Bone Health 🦴
Food, nutrition and exercise all play essential roles in maintaining strong bones.
Did you know?
• For women, bone density begins to decline after menopause.
• For men, peak bone mass (the strongest our bones will ever be) is reached between ages 20 and 30.
• Vitamin D deficiency affects around one third of adults in Australia.
Dairy is one of the best sources of calcium, but there are plenty of other ways to hit your daily target through food alone.
Calcium needs differ with age and gender, and supplements are not a Dietitian's first approach to preventing fractures.
Our team of Dietitians at PACE tailors nutrition plans to support bone health, whether you're managing osteoporosis or osteopenia, or just want to make sure you're getting what you need through your 40s, 50s and beyond.
