An alkaline diet that emphasizes vegetables, fruits, and is widely considered the best nutrition for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Unfortunately, this is not the diet that is familiar to most North Americans.
The North American diet
There is a growing consensus that good nutrition for osteoporosis coffee is acid-forming foods such as meat and drink too much, drinks, e. In "Strategies for osteoporosis," theNational Osteoporosis Foundation warns that taking too much protein can be harmful to bone health. "Too much protein and calcium, sodium intake may increase the loss by the kidneys. In fact, an individual needs calcium per day increases proportionately with the amount of protein and sodium in his diet."
The National Institute of Arthritis and Muscular and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) has repeated this warning: "Although a balanced diet helps the body absorb calcium, highThe levels of protein and sodium (salt) in the diet is thought to increase calcium excretion through the kidneys. Excessive amounts of these substances should be avoided, especially in those with low calcium intake. "North American beverage consumption of meat and soda countries may have a partial cause for the high incidence of osteoporosis than others.
The Recommended Dietary Allowance of meat (RDA) of protein for men is 56 grams / day for women and 46 grams / day from all foodSources, including meat, tofu, eggs, cereals, pulses and dairy products.
Statistics Canada reported that Canada has been eating red meat (including beef, pork, mutton and beef) and chicken in slow decline since 1999 to about 77 pounds (35 kg) per person in 2007 or 25 grams of protein per day. (This calculation is only for meat and contains no other protein rich foods such as dairy products.) Meat consumption may decline in Canada, but is constantlythe United States to hold an extraordinary 101 kg (223 pounds) per capita in 2007 or 72 grams of protein a day meat alone ... no eggs, dairy products, cereals or legumes. Since this is also every man, woman and child, adults are clearly consume much more than the recommended amount of animal protein.
soft drinks and coffee
Medical research has also identified a clear link between increased cola and osteoporosis, but in the United States consumption of soft drinks are still going ontogether with the demand for more meat. A study conducted at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill showed that energy intake of soft drinks in the U.S. increased 135 percent between 1977 and 2001 approximately. Young adults aged 19-39 drank soft drinks, increasing their income from 4.1 percent to 9.8 percent of total daily calorie consumption in this period. is sub-coffee drinkers (ie not per capita) the average consumption of coffee in the United States was 3.1 cupsCoffee per day (National Coffee Association) and consumption is increasing.
According to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, per capita consumption of soft drinks in Canada has decreased over the past ten years, but was still nearly 110 liters per capita in 2006. Soft drinks are still the largest market share of all beverages sold (15%), although coffee consumption is growing, and was more than 14% of the beverage market in 2006. Together, these two drinks that produce acidnearly 30% of the beverage consumed by Canadians. Research now suggests that people who try to follow their dietary guidelines for Java prevention or treatment of osteoporosis should avoid cola drinks, and alkaline non-carbonated drinks decaffeinated coffee, if not live. An even healthier choice would be to reduce meat consumption in favor of fruits and vegetables or drinking beverages that contain caffeine as green tea.
CONCLUSION
We have not become vegetarians meetwith alkaline dietary guidelines for the treatment of osteoporosis. But soda and reduce our consumption of meat and vegetables and fruit increased in our diet is definitely shown on. A general rule of thumb is that a diet consisting of 20% acid forming foods (cereals and protein) and 80% alkaline foods (fruits and vegetables). A goal would be healthy for at least two servings of vegetables or fruit at every meal and not eat more than two servings daily of carbohydrates such as bread,Cereals and pasta.
With the mad cow disease, swine flu, bird flu, the widespread use of antibiotics and hormones in agriculture and unacceptable environmental damage threatens us ... eat more delicious leafy vegetables and fresh fruit is a great alternative.
