Do you know the importance of magnesium when it comes to the health of your bones?

Magnesium helps your body use calcium and vitamin D. It helps minerals, like calcium, harden and strengthen your bones. It's not yet clear whether low magnesium levels increase your risk of breaking a bone, but it is thought to be a risk factor for osteoporosis.

Foods containing Magnesium:
🥦Green Vegetables
🥛 Milk
🧀 Dairy
🫗 Tap Water (in areas of hard water)
🥜 Nuts
🍚Brown Rice
🐟 Fish
🍞 Bread (especially wholegrain)
🍖 Meat
🍌 Bananas
🍊 Orange juice

The importance of Vitamin D should not be underestimated. Without it, you can’t absorb calcium. It’s impossible to know the strength of your bones until it’s too late and you suffer a fracture or break.

Exercise & Bone Health

Do you know what weight bearing exercise is? We often hear that weight bearing exercise is crucially important to maintain and build healthy bones but what type of activities does this include?

Walking, Thai Chi and dancing are all simple and gentle ways to exercise safely and at your own pace.
Walking up and down a flight of stairs is another way to incorporate weight bearing activities into your daily life.

People with proven bone loss should be individually assessed by a professional to get a tailor made exercise plan.

Book your Dexa Scan today to assess your bone health.

Do you know the difference between Osteopenia and Osteoporosis?

Osteopenia is a loss of bone mass or bone mineral density. It is the stage before osteoporosis, and without treatment, it can progress to osteoporosis. Osteoporosis happens when bone mineral density and bone mass decrease even further or when there are structural changes to bone tissue.
Simple changes to your lifestyle and diet can prevent bone deterioration. Contact us today to book your Dexa scan appointment.

We are a private Dexa Unit located in Suite 26 of The Galway Clinic. DEXA stands for “Dual-Energy

Would you consider yourself claustrophobic? We get asked multiple times every day if a Dexa scanner is the same a MRI or CT. A huge number of people have a fear of enclosed spaces. Rest assured that a Dexa scanner merely skims over your body (as pictured) and you are not fully enclosed at any time. Also, as long as are wearing clothing with no metal clasps or zips, you can remain fully dressed!

Myth Busting!
A patient recently asked 'Is it a myth that cracking your knuckles regularly cause arthritis?'
Fact: Whether you regularly and intentionally crack your knuckles (known medically as ‘crepitus’) or just do it occasionally by accident, you don't have to worry because it has not been shown to increase the risk of arthritis.
Did you know this?
