It is imperative to eat foods that are rich in calcium and other trace elements (phosphorus and magnesium) that are extremely useful for bones
Calcium plays a major role in maintaining the health of the body’s skeletal system. With age, the body loses less of it, so it is imperative to eat foods that are rich in it and other trace elements (phosphorus and magnesium) and vitamin D. This was told by renowned nutritionist Elena Baikova.
“Most of the easily digestible calcium, which gets from the stomach to the blood without hindrance, is found in fermented dairy products. These include cottage cheese, kefir, fermented milk products, natural yogurt, and cheeses. A small piece of cheese will contain more calcium than a large jug of milk. Nuts, seeds, garlic, legumes (beans, beans, peas), and cereals such as buckwheat, oatmeal, and barley are also rich in calcium,” she said.
Baikova also says that when preparing a diet to replenish calcium reserves, you should pay attention to chia seeds. In addition, a fairly small portion can contain half of the daily requirement at once.
Another addition to salads and main courses can be chickpeas. It belongs to legumes and goes well with other foods. Moreover, it is very nutritious and helps build muscle mass. Therefore, it is an ideal option for those who play sports.
