Murfreesboro Osteoporosis & Fracture Prevention with Calcium and Vitamin D

Fractures are disruptive. Fractures hurt. Fractures keep you from doing what you want to do. Fractures are pricey in terms of time, money and suffering. How can osteoporotic fractures be averted? Calcium and vitamin D supplementation for those with osteoporosis. Most Chiropractic Clinic cares for many Murfreesboro osteoporotic patients and endorses preventive measures like nutritional supplementation to deter osteoporotic fractures and keep our Murfreesboro chiropractic patients strong and fit.

SUPPLEMENTATION SAVES SUFFERING AND MONEY FOR FRACTURES

Your Murfreesboro chiropractor knows well that supplementing with calcium and vitamin D supports the health of bones and helps them be strong. This feeding and strengthening ideally should start in the teen years, but supplementing at any age is of value. A recent study of osteoporosis patients in the European Union and the United States shares a couple startling statistics:

(A) more than 500,000 fractures a year in the EU and 300,000 in the United States could be prevented if every adult with osteoporosis in the EU and US used calcium and vitamin D and

(B) €5.7 billion in the EU and $3.3 billion in the US could be saved. (1)

Those are some huge numbers! Most Chiropractic Clinic surely urges support of this effort to save money and, more significantly, suffering by supplementing with calcium and vitamin D3.

THE PROPER TYPE OF SUPPLEMENT IS KEY

Most Chiropractic Clinic is very confident that if you are making the effort to take calcium and vitamin D, you want it to work. You want them to be absorbed as much as possible. That is where the type of vitamin D you choose is important. Attaining and keeping proper levels of vitamin D is also key for bone and general health. This is a problem for people everywhere. Why? Absorption. Absorption may be hindered in conditions like obesity in which nutrients get trapped in the adipose tissue, in diseases that are recognized for decreased intestinal absorption, and with some neurological diseases that require special drugs that prompt the person’s system to not synthesize the calcifediol successfully. The recommendation in this recent research paper is to take oral calcifediol (vitamin D3) as it is three to five times more powerful and has a higher rate of intestinal absorption. (2) Most Chiropractic Clinic recognizes the importance of good absorption.
