Bones are the framework for your child’s growing body. Bone is living tissue that changes constantly, with bits of old bone being removed and replaced by new bone. You can think of bone as a bank account, where (with your help) your kids make “deposits” and “withdrawals” of bone tissue. During childhood and adolescence, much more bone is deposited than withdrawn as the skeleton grows in both size and density.
The two most important lifelong bone health habits to encourage now are proper nutrition and plenty of physical activity.
Eating for healthy bones means getting plenty of foods that are rich in calcium and vitamin D. Most kids do not get enough calcium in their diets to help ensure optimal peak bone mass. Are your kids getting enough calcium?
Age Amount of calcium (Milligrams)
Infants
Birth to 6 months 200
6 months to 1 year 260
Children/young adults
1 to 3 years 700
4 to 8 years 1,000
9 to 18 years 1,300
Kids with strong bones have a better chance of avoiding bone weakness later in life.
Parents can help by making sure kids get the 3 key ingredients for healthy bones: calcium, vitamin D, and exercise.
Encourage Kids to Exercise:-
Our muscles get stronger the more we use them. The same is true for bones.
Activities like walking, running, jumping, and climbing are especially good for building bone. They are called weight-bearing activities because they use the force of our muscles and gravity to put pressure on our bones. The pressure makes the body build up stronger bone.
Typically, when parents think about their children’s health, they don’t think about their bones. But building healthy bones by adopting healthy nutritional and lifestyle habits in childhood is important to help prevent osteoporosis and fractures later in life.
