Tips On Maintaining Tulang Health In The Style Oftensic Barends

JAKARTA - With age, bone health is one of the important things to pay attention to. Bone density can be reduced so that you can no longer carry out activities like when you were young. Aware of this, why Barends changed its lifestyle so that bones are healthier.

He admitted that at first, he did not understand bone health and felt that bone health was not influenced by lifestyle. But lately, he realized that the thought was wrong.

"So I started to pay attention to bone health by regularly drinking calcium high milk and changing my lifestyle to make it healthier," said Goyang, quoted from ANTARA, Friday, January 13.

"In fact, I have regularly drank calcium high milk for 16 years, while coupled with exercise and routine bone health checks," he added.

According to my mind, changing lifestyles and habits is indeed very difficult. But to overcome this, he did so with friends and family who had the same health goals.

"When done with friends and family who have the same health goals, it becomes easier. After all, a healthy life is fun and fun," he said.

The health of bone, joints, and muscles often escape the attention of adult groups in Indonesia. On average they only consume 245 mg of calcium per day. In fact, adults need around 1,000 to 1,200 mg of calcium every day.

According to the US National Library of Medicine, brittle bones can risk breaking your bones even when you're just doing small activities, such as bending or coughing.

In addition, maintaining muscle health is also important because muscles are related to many systems in the human body. Lacking muscle mass can cause weakening of the body in terms of strength, energy, immune system, and even organ function. Moreover, muscle mass can decrease by about 3-8 percent per decade after the age of 30.

In August 2022, in celebration of its 20th anniversary, Anlene conducted bone, joint, and muscle health checks in Ambarawa and Kediri, which reached more than 8,351 people consisting of 33 percent of men and 67 percent of women aged 19-70 years.

As a result, 70 percent of participants have lower normal muscle mass. In addition, 66 percent of participants over the age of 31 have a moderate to high risk of osteoporosis.

"Through the examination we have carried out, we understand that there is still a lot we need to do to increase public awareness about the dangers of osteoporosis," said Marketing Director of Fonterra Brands Indonesia Riescha

"So when the inspection took place, we also helped provide special education according to the conditions of each individual so that they could be more aware of their own health status and bone density, muscles and joints," he continued.

He hopes that in the future there will be more Indonesian adults who not only understand osteoporosis but also start taking action to prevent it.
