In addition, the process is not visible. Until now, there are still many people who believe that the bone is one of the organs of the body that hard and not changed and is permanent.
Actually, bone is living Networkless that periodically, or consistent, and to discharge generation according to the medical term is called bone remodeling.
The number of bones in the human body reaches 206 fruit and the largest thigh bone (femur) and the smallest is sangurdi bone (stirrup bone).
Meanwhile, the skeleton in the body will have a total of regenerating every seven to 10 years of age so that the bones of more young people in age.
Human bones consists of two layers, namely, a strong outside layer, and layer in the weak. A strong outside layer (cortical bone) is often referred to as dense bone.
So, forming a layer that protects the bones of a solid and strong, established almost 80% of the total mass framework.
Then layer in the weak, called trabecular bone. Bone is the trabecular bone architecture. Complex network and elastic. This ability of bone tension and compression to hold and distribute the burden of bones.
Layer in the bones that resembles a bee or a house spons This is a major part of the bone structure in the. The conditions more porous, less dense and weaker than the cortical bone, and have a high metabolism to make them more prone to broken or destroyed.
Therefore, the need for early prevention since that porous bones (osteoporosis) can be avoided. In the case porous bone, bone images architects will holey due mass reduced.
Now, every one of the three women, and one of five men aged above 50 years of the potential consequences suffered broken bones porous bone.
In 2050, one of two broken pelvis caused by osteoporosis are estimated to occur in Asia. There are two of five people have osteoporosis risk.
Prevention efforts
To prevent the occurrence of bone porous to the risk of fatal, it can be done with the sport in good, proper, orderly, and measurable.
Sports are good for the aged above 30 years can be a healthy way of at least three times each week at least once per half hour of exercise, and maintain the pattern of life and a healthy eating pattern.
Lifestyle that both a.l. rest regularly, avoid smoking habits, do not consume alcoholic beverages or which contains soda and eating patterns Feed with a good balance of calcium to at least 1,200 adult people milligram. Feed calcium is derived from fruits, vegetables, milk, fish, and the morning sun.
Efforts to other no less important is not to prevent any broken bones, especially in areas with the most potential, namely wrists, and the waist down the back.
This is because the occurrence of the condition of decreased bone mass so that bones become thin, porous, brittle and easily broken.
