Keep Your Bones Strong

Description
Bones are quite literally the support system of the body, so it’s super important to keep them strong and healthy. Though weak bones may seem like an old person problem, there’s plenty we can do early in life (like, say, in our teens and 20s) to make sure bones stay healthy later on down the line.

Our bodies are building up those bones until about age 30, when they typically reach peak bone mass (which varies from person to person).

Bones are constantly being broken down and rebuilt in tiny amounts. Before reaching peak bone mass, the body is creating new bone faster, but after age 30, the bone building balance naturally shifts and more bone is lost than gained.
So make sure to have strong bones and keeping them that way .

1.   Boost calcium consumption
2.   Don’t forget vitamin D
3.   Boost bone density with vitamin K
4.   Lift heavy weights
