Exercise Helps Prevent Osteoporosis
Monday August 21, 2006
Evidence shows that exercise may help build and maintain bone density at any age. Studies have seen bone density increase by doing regular resistance exercises, such as lifting weights, two or three times a week. This type of weight bearing exercise appears to stimulate bone formation, and the retention of calcium, in the bones that are bearing the load.
Exercise is the best therapy for any disease or any sickness. That’s why I always have time for exercise despite of such heavy schedules. But why doesn’t it work to some people? I’ve known some who really exercises a lot but still, they are sickly.
