There is an old family, such as a treasure. Parents are the origin of our lives and the sustenance of the spirit, as China enters an aging society, the health care of the elderly has attracted more and more people's attention. Nowadays, geriatric diseases are getting more and more frequent, more and more young, in addition to preventing common common diseases such as hypertension, cerebral thrombosis, diabetes, we should also pay attention to the bone health of the elderly. We know that there are many elderly people around who are usually in good health, but after falling and lying in bed, their spirits quickly withered.

This is due to the serious loss of calcium in the bones of the elderly, lack of toughness, like dry wood exposed by the wind and the sun, it is easy to break, medically called osteoporosis. Osteoporosis usually has no obvious clinical manifestations in the early stage, but with the development of the disease, bone mass is constantly lost, the microstructure of bone is destroyed, and patients will not only have bone pain, but also spinal deformation, and even malignant consequences of osteoporotic fractures.
Osteoporosis can lead to cardiovascular disease in addition to fragile fractures. When the elderly due to osteoporosis caused by thoracovertebral compression fractures, it is easy to appear thoracic deformation, some of the appearance of scoliosis affects the respiratory function of the lungs, resulting in compression of the lungs or heart, and then cause the risk of mechanical breathing disorders or cardiac dysfunction.
Therefore, osteoporosis is the most indifferent killer of the health and life safety of the elderly.
For the elderly with osteoporosis, the most important thing is to supplement calcium and increase bone mass. The best way to prevent osteoporosis is to supplement calcium and vitamin D together to promote the overall absorption of calcium. Vitamin D can promote the reabsorption of calcium by the kidneys, promote the absorption of calcium by the small intestine, and better promote the deposition of calcium on the surface of the bone, so that the bones can remain healthy.
how to supplement vitamin D < h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >? </h1>
Vitamin D supplementation is in the following ways: First, outdoor activities in the sun. For people with good liver and kidney function, sun exposure can convert itself into vitamin D for their own use. However, the sun supplements less vitamin D, which is difficult to meet daily needs, and it is easy to burn the skin after being exposed to the sun for a long time. The second is vitamin D supplementation. Vitamins need receptors for vitamin D in the body to be absorbed and utilized by the body. Older adults have poorer ability to respond to vitamin D receptors and need to choose vitamin D that is more easily absorbed.
Star Shark D Vitamin D Softgels launched by State Control Star Shark, with a high content of 500IU, are supplemented together with Star Shark Calcium SoftGels produced by State Control Star Shark, which can be described as "two swords combined" and can play a role in calcium supplementation.
