Nutrition for Stronger Bones – You Can Eat Your Way to Better Bone Health

ARE YOUR BONES HUNGRY FOR GOOD NUTRITION?

Did you know your bones are just as hungry for good nutrition as your muscles? What you eat has a huge impact on your bone strength, especially as we age. But the good news is it’s simple to support your bones with the right foods.

The Bone-Building Basics

Your bones need a few key nutrients every day to stay strong:

• Calcium: This is the “building block” mineral in your bones. Think dairy, leafy greens, almonds, and fortified plant milks.

• Vitamin D: Helps your body absorb calcium. You can get it from salmon, eggs, sunlight, or supplements.

• Protein: Often overlooked, but it’s critical for bones. Eggs, chicken, fish, lentils, and Greek yogurt are great sources.

• Magnesium and Vitamin K2: These help move calcium into your bones (and keep it out of places it shouldn’t be).

Simple Bone-Boosting Meal Ideas

• Breakfast: Greek yogurt with almonds and blueberries

• Lunch: Spinach salad with salmon, avocado, and olive oil

• Snack: Hard-boiled egg and a handful of walnuts

• Dinner: Grilled chicken with steamed broccoli and quinoa

The goal is to spread your calcium and protein throughout the day and minimize things like soda and heavily processed foods that can work against your bones.
