Sugar friend wary of early brittle bones

China's traditional Chinese medicine reported

        Not long ago, "hospital quality tour-osteoporosis thematic activities" in the PLA general hospital first affiliated hospital kick off. The two-day yizhen activities, has more than 700 patients became, for 147 people aged 50 patients had bone mineral density detection, in 73 a diagnosis for osteoporosis patients, 42 people also suffer from diabetes. The PLA general hospital first affiliated hospital of director of division of rehabilitation physical therapy professor who remind: diabetes patients be wary of early brittle bones.

        Half of the patients with diabetes osteoporosis

        Who said, osteoporosis is a bone strength that the body to reduce cancer increased fracture risk is the characteristic of bone disease. It in a serious threat to the elderly, especially in postmenopausal women's health, which leads to complications such as the fracture, give patients, their families and the society brought heavy economic and social burden. Patients with diabetes osteoporosis was higher than the proportion of patients with diabetes. According to reports, 1/2-two-thirds of diabetes patients with reduced bone mineral density, among them a third of patients can be diagnosed as osteoporosis.

        Who is introduced, patients with diabetes vulnerable to osteoporosis for three reasons:

        Patients with diabetes is a high blood sugar concentration, kidney from too much glucose in the at the same time, to the calcium filtration rate also will increase, resulting in a large calcium from urine lost. According to determine, healthy people from urine 24 hours out of the calcium ranked for 104 + 20 milligrams, and diabetes is out to 195 + 106 milligrams.

        Two patients with diabetes is on a lot of calcium from at the same time, the bones of phosphorus, magnesium has lost. Low magnesium stimulation of the neck parathyroid secretion, prompted the bones of calcium release, that slowdown, osteoporosis. Other patients with diabetes in addition to sugar the metabolic disorders, and vitamins, of calcitonin metabolic disorders such as, affects bone metabolism, contributed to osteoporosis.

        Three is not only for insulin sugar metabolism is very important, and affect protein synthesis. Bone is for matrix protein, calcium deposits in the large and become. Diabetes patients collagen synthesis is insufficient, bone matrix decreases, also increased osteoporosis. Therefore, patients with diabetes are more likely to have height is shortened, and the type O or X leg, bow-backed wait for a phenomenon. Diabetes patients common with hip fracture, wrist fractures and no obvious symptoms of the spine fracture, and the vast majority are due to osteoporosis is the result of. Many patients with diabetes are often only to take the treatment of diabetes itself, ignore the prevention and control of osteoporosis, actually, the fracture of the serious consequences brought even more than diabetes itself.

        Sugar friend beware of osteoporosis

        Who reminds say, patients with diabetes, especially those with long had a, must be alert to osteoporosis, life such as the following symptoms appear, want to consider a possible combination have osteoporosis, should be timely checked to the hospital bone density.

        1. Low back pain: a sore, cold pain, blunt painful, etc.; 2. Bone pain: pain site is differ, occurs more often in back, waist, buttocks, thigh and other parts, can a single, also can also appear, or transfer to other sites; 3. Cramps: good hair at arm or leg; 4. Muscle weakness: when has the station to sit down, sit to lie when feeling; 5. Height and; 6. Bone deformity appeared: the expression is bow-backed, rachis; 7. Fracture: multiple under pressure or external force was born in the biggest parts, such as spinal chest and waist segment, hip, femoral neck, proximal humeral, etc.

        Who said, patients with diabetes to prevent osteoporosis, first should actively and effectively control diabetes, all pure for osteoporosis and not on sugar metabolism treatment method for effective control, is not advisable. Because the process of insulin in the bone metabolism plays a important role of diabetic patients with osteoporosis should as far as possible use insulin treatment. In the control diabetes, and on the basis of daily life we should pay attention to the following three aspects.

        Maintain the good life way smoking and drinking alcohol, a large number of drinking coffee or strong tea, all can make patients urine calcium excretion increase in its bone calcium dissolution, reduce bone mass, thus vulnerable to osteoporosis. Therefore, patients with diabetes should pay attention to correct the bad way of life.

        Adhere to the golden rule of diet is the key to prevention osteoporosis intake enough calcium and promote the absorption of calcium in food. Normal recommended calcium quantity for each day 800 ~ 1000 mg, sugar friend because of calcium metabolism disorders, can raise to 1200 milligrams. Diet high in milk calcium, and easily absorbed into the body, is the first choice of friends sugar calcium. In addition, patients except at ordinary times the diet calcium, sunshine, vitamin D and vitamin A. Sunshine and vitamin D can promote the absorption of calcium, be helpful for the ossification calcium; Vitamin A bone collagen and sticky organic matter in the synthesis of polysaccharide, old people should absorb 800 micrograms per day. The source of the vitamin A including egg yolks, animal liver, yellow red vegetables and fruit.

        Take an active part in sports can often for jogging, walking, swimming, tai chi project movement, for strong bones, improve bone mineral density, prevent the happening of the osteoporosis.
