What you eat has an impact on your bones! Are you concerned that your bone health may not be top notch? Does osteoporosis run in your family? You need to be on the lookout for what you eat because it has an impact on how strong your bones are!
If your diet is high in ultra processed foods like pizza, candy, pop, chips, hot dogs, and cereal you have a higher risk of having health problems. A recent animal study showed that a diet high in ultra processed foods weakened bones and showed an increased risk for fractures. The more ultra processed foods you eat the higher the risk you have for obesity and other health conditions.
In order for your body to heal and repair it needs the right building blocks. The right building blocks consist of organic healthy whole foods that are nourishing to the body. The more whole foods you eat the better the building blocks you have for repairing your body.
Research has shown that Vitamin K has been linked to bone and heart health. Vitamin K is a fat soluble vitamin and it helps drive calcium into your bones. Vitamin K also helps to prevent hardening of your arteries which is important for heart health. Most people don’t get enough vitamin K in their diet so supplementation may be necessary.
Vitamin K can be found in
Collard greens
Spinach
Salad greens
Kale
Broccoli
Brussel sprouts
Cabbage
Natto
Keifer
In order to absorb Vitamin K it is important to eat some healthy fat with it.
Ideas to add healthy fats include,
Avocado to your salad.
Butter or avocado oil on your brussel sprouts.
Olive oil salad dressing.
