Can Magnesium Reduce the Risk of Fractures?

Healthy bones are important for healthy ageing, and bone fractures continue to be one of the common preventable causes of disability in older adults. According to a new study, published in the European Journal of Epidemiology, conducted by Dr. Setor Kunutsor and his research team, magnesium supplementation could reduce the risk of fractures, especially among those middle-aged and older.

Every year, millions of people go on to suffer fractures, and almost three quarters of hip, spine, and forearm fractures occur in people aged 65 and older. Calcium and vitamin D have received attention for maintaining and even improving bone strength, but magnesium needs to be equally considered. Insufficient magnesium can disrupt the equilibrium between vitamin D and calcium, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and bone weakness. 

At Greenfield Medical Centre, we support a wholistic approach to health. This includes highlighting to our patients the importance of minerals, like magnesium. Practicing a well-balanced diet and supplementing, if needed, can help support optimal bone health.

Speak to your GP today to see if magnesium could support you long-term. https://greenfieldmedical.com.au/

🦴 WHY BONE DENSITY MATTERS?

Strong bones = Strong foundation for life! Bone density refers to the strength and thickness of your bones. As we age, low bone density can silently lead to osteoporosis, making bones weak, brittle, and more prone to fractures — even with minor falls!

🔍 Why should you care about your bone density? ✅ Prevents fractures and spinal issues ✅ Maintains mobility and independence ✅ Detects early signs of osteoporosis ✅ Essential for postmenopausal women and ageing adults ✅ Supports joint and overall skeletal health

👨‍⚕️ Regular bone density tests and expert evaluation by Dr. Sandeep Gavhale, Orthopaedic Surgeon in Ulwe, Navi Mumbai, can help you stay ahead of bone health issues.

New Study Shows Magnesium May Prevent Bone Fractures, Did You Know?

A new study published in the European Journal of Epidemiology has some exciting news for those aged 40 and older; magnesium supplementation may help significantly reduce your risk of bone fracture. This mineral doesn't get the press of calcium and vitamin D, but it's crucial to protecting your bone health, muscle function, and cellular functioning across the board.

It is well known that with age, our bones become less dense and have a higher likelihood of sustaining a fracture, particularly in those over the age of 50. Magnesium contributes to increased bone strength, as well as supporting calcium metabolism, making it an essential nutrient for sustainable skeletal health.

Appin Medical Centre is all about preventive care and supporting individuals in learning about recent research developments, if you're over the age of 40 or have had fractures previously, see your GP about magnesium supplementation.

Magnesium & Bone Health: An Essential Link 🌿

Have you heard about magnesium's role in stopping bone breaks for older people? New studies in the European Journal of Epidemiology show that taking magnesium might lower the chance of breaks for middle-aged and older folks. This builds on what we know about calcium and vitamin D keeping bones strong and healthy.

Breaks—in the hip, spine, and forearm—often cause long-term problems for people over 65. But we can prevent many of these. Not enough magnesium can mess with how your body takes in calcium and vitamin D making bones weaker.

At Greenfield Medical Centre, your bone health matters to us. Talk to our doctors to check your mineral levels and get personal tips on supplements and food.

Understanding Osteoporosis: Prevention and Treatment

Osteoporosis, often called the "silent disease," weakens bones, making them more prone to fractures. It affects many, but often goes undiagnosed until a break occurs. Preventing and managing osteoporosis is crucial, especially as we age. At Renew Health Center, we’re dedicated to offering comprehensive care to help you understand and prevent osteoporosis.

What is Osteoporosis? Osteoporosis causes bones to become fragile due to loss of bone density, making them prone to fractures. It's more common in older adults, especially women post-menopause, due to hormonal changes.

Prevention Tips:

Healthy Diet: Include calcium and vitamin D-rich foods like dairy, leafy greens, and fortified foods.

Exercise: Weight-bearing exercises like walking and strength training are essential for maintaining bone density.

Lifestyle: Avoid smoking and limit alcohol, as these habits can weaken bones.

Treatment Options at Renew Health Center Our team provides tailored treatments, including medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle counseling to help manage and prevent osteoporosis effectively.
