Almonds, parsley, chickpeas, cockles and endives help strengthen your bones

It is commonly known that drinking milk and consuming cheese, like parmesan, and yogurts bring calcium to the bones, but other food like almonds, parsley, chickpeas, cockles and endives can also help us to have strong and healthy bones.

Furthermore, introducing foodstuffs in our diet such as beans, cocoa powder, mussels, chocolate, walnuts and peanuts also transport calcium to our skeleton. The most important thing is having a balanced diet.

Additionally, black sesame is also recommended by bone' specialists. It can be mixed with yogurt or even in a green salad, depending on preference. Black sesame has a nice taste and, what’s more, it is really healthy.

Specifically, experts state that men and women need between 500 and 800 milligrams of calcium a day, whereas, teenagers need 1000 milligrams and children between 400 and 900, depending on age.

Eating healthily and having a balanced diet will prevent us from developing further illnesses and the appropriate average of calcium will definitely be positive for our bones. On the contrary, if someone feels that a healthy diet is not enough, they should go to the doctor to check if they need extra help. A common extra supplement for someone who, for instance, has had an injury and has worn a plaster for a long time could be calcium pills with vitamin D. Not all the calcium percentage we swallow is absorbed by our metabolism, therefore these pills just act to help our body to take the majority of it in specific situations where we need extra help. But again, just remember to ask first your specialist, before buying any kind of pills!
