But for living a healthy life taking care of bone health should be on top of our priority list because strong bones can keep us internally healthy and make us look externally young for a long time.<\/p>\n

Regular exercise and a proper healthy diet can help a lot in improving and maintaining bone health.<\/p>\n

Calcium and vitamin D are two main nutrients that play a major role in maintaining bone health.<\/p>\n

Calcium is the mineral that helps in proper functioning of our body and is stored in our bones. Our bones need vitamin D to absorb calcium. Lack of calcium in our body and diet can lead to fragile, brittle bones that are more prone to fractures and disease.<\/p>\n

Other important nutrients for our bones are vitamin K, vitamin C, magnesium, and phosphorus.<\/p>\n

Here are a few foods that can keep our bone healthy and strong.<\/p>\n

Milk<\/strong><\/p>\n

Milk is rich in calcium and helps in maintaining bone health throughout your life. We need 30% of calcium daily and one cup of milk is sufficient to provide that to our body.<\/p>\n

Adding a cup of milk to your diet can reduce your bone related issues forever.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

Leafy green veggies<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leafy vegetables are the main source of nondairy calcium. Steamed leafy veggies and salads are packed with bone-building nutrients like calcium, magnesium and vitamin K.<\/p>\n

Magnesium helps in maintaining bone integrity and vitamin K is needed for bone metabolism.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

Fish<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fishes are the rich source of nutrients that are essential for the proper functioning of bones and other organs of our body. Tuna and catfish well know in this category. They are loaded with vitamin D.<\/p>\n

Tuna contains high amount of beneficiary nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids while catfish contains 425 IU in one 3-ounce filet.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

Yoghurt<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yoghurt is infused with an ample amount of vitamin D and contains sufficiently more calcium than milk from which it\u2019s made.<\/p>\n

Yoghurt can be your creamy way of adding calcium and vitamin D in your diet.<\/p>\n

A cup of yoghurt contains 30% of calcium and 20 % of vitamin D. Consuming a cup of yoghurt daily can easily fulfil your body\u2019s need for calcium and vitamin D.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

Eggs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eggs contain a good amount of vitamin D and adding eggs in your breakfast is a good idea to gain vitamin D.<\/p>\n

Vitamin D is found only on egg\u2019s yolk and the egg whites may cut the calories. So, if you need vitamin D just don\u2019t opt for egg whites.<\/p>\n
