Mother who experiences pain in the joints and bones in old age makes a singer Liza Natalia choose to run a healthy lifestyle . He is now also undergoing professional Zumba instructor 's gymnastics exercise at least three times a day and keep his diet .
" I still want to be healthy and fit to old. Trick routine exercise , avoiding smoking , and keep eating , " said the mother of two children who always seem to fit this in an educational media event held by Caltrate calcium supplement in Jakarta some time ago .
Without implementing a healthy lifestyle a person is prone to bone loss or osteoporosis , especially in women whose risk is greater than men .
Everyone will lose some of their bones with increasing age . It was a normal process . However , in people with osteoporosis , their bones thinning at a rate faster , become brittle , and easily broken .
The risk of osteoporotic fractures occur in the bone , especially the hip, spine , and wrist . This can be prevented if at first you have a " savings " in the form of bone calcium sufficiency .
Calcium intake is too low because the major effect of this vital mineral for bone building . Another factor is the lack of vitamin D which helps the body absorb calcium .
According dr.Cindiawaty Pudjiadi , clinical nutrition specialist , beneficial calcium to maintain bone structure and strength , regulate muscle contraction including heart muscle , nerve delivery , and blood clots .
" But keep in mind that calcium is not optimal for bone health if not balanced with other nutrients which are beneficial to the bone , " he said on the same occasion .
Intake of other nutrients , including vitamin D required , magnesium , zinc , copper , and manganese . "Each of these nutrients have a role in protecting and maintaining the health of our bones , " he said .
So far , the people of Indonesia calcium consumption reached an average of 254 mg / day , well below the WHO rekomendsasi which is 1000 to 1300 mg / day . In fact , bone formation should begin early , even as a baby still in the womb .
Research has shown that a combination of calcium by 15 mg / day , 2.5 mg manganese / day and 5 mg copper / day will increase bone density , and thus reduce the risk of osteoporosis .
Sources of calcium can be obtained easily from food , among other dairy products as the best natural source of calcium , cheese , sour milk ( yogurt ) , fish , whole grains , tofu , and tempeh . If you are a fan of vegetables , sources include broccoli , cabbage , cauliflower , spinach , and navel oranges .

" Indeed, vitamin D also can we get from food , but generally not enough considering our diets often do not conform with the recommendations of balanced nutrition. And if we are still too afraid of sunlight , better add than supplements , " said Cindi .
Some bad habits , such as smoking , drinking alcohol , coffee , cola , and some types of vegetables contain oxalates can also inhibit the absorption of calcium . Diet that limits the intake of certain foods also often make us some nutritional deficiencies .
Currently on the market there are many circulating calcium supplements , but Cindi suggested that choosing a supplement that also features minerals and vitamin D for bone .
Oscar Harisman , Country Portfolio Manager Consumer Healthcare PT.Pfizer Indonesia said , there are two types of calcium supplements , the calcium citrate and calcium carbonate .
" Calcium carbonate is higher calcium content . But note also how consumption because there is nothing to be taken 2-3 times a day and there is nothing to drink . If we often forget , is more practical select taken once a day , " he said .
