– A decrease in bone density after middle age increases the risk of osteoporosis. In particular, in the case of women, osteoporosis prevention is more important because bone mass decreases rapidly after menopause. “The King of Thumbs” reveals how to take care of bone health, including diet tips and exercise methods. Professor Kim Jung-hyeon of the Department of Food and Nutrition tells the recipe for a “regeneration cube” that will strengthen bones. Regeneration cubes can be made easily by chopping the vitamin D rich mushrooms and vitamin K rich algae and then freezing them.
Additionally, Yoon Pil-hwan, an orthopedic surgeon, introduces the “shake and shake exercise method” which develops a sense of balance and muscle strength. Because patients with osteoporosis are more likely to fracture when they fall, it is good to develop a sense of balance and strength to prevent falls.
