We selected some easy-cooking Chinese medicinal herbal cuisine for people who have osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis.
Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis, very often to hear those words while we getting aged.
Osteoporosis is a generalized, progressive diminution of bone density causing skeletal weakness event though the ratio of mineral to organic elements remains unchanged. Late menarche, early menopause, nulliparity, caffeine ingestion, alcohol use, and cigarette smoking may all increase the risk of osteoporosis. Other factors associated with the development of osteoporosis include immobilization or insufficient exercise, lower weight and muscle mass, dietary factors, such as insufficient intake of calcium, potassium, and vitamin D, and a bodily acid-base balance that is more acidic due to consumption of sugar, salt, excessive protein, carbonated soft drinks ,caffeine, and processed food.
Patients with uncomplicated osteoporosis may either be asymptomatic or may complain of muscle-bone pain, particularly in their back. Vertebral crush fractures may develop with minimal or no trauma.
Osteoarthritis also called degenerative joint disease. It is the most common articular disorder. Pain is the earliest symptom of this disease. It is usually worsened by exercise and relieved by rest. Morning stiffness follows inactivity but lasts less than 15-30 minutes and lessens with movement. As OA progresses, joint mobility diminishes, tenderness and crepitus appear, and flexion contractures may develop. Proliferation of cartilage, bone, ligament, tendon, capsules, and synovium, along with varying amounts of joint effusion, ultimately produces the joint enlargement characteristic of this disease.
