Description

In this episode, we delve into a topic not often discussed in the world of weight-loss surgery: the health of our bones.

  • Understanding Our Bones: Just like a building, bones need constant care. They break down and rebuild, and for them to stay strong, this process must be balanced.
  • The Bone Challenge Post-Surgery:
    1. Nutrient Absorption: Post-surgery, our bodies might not soak up essential nutrients like before, affecting bone strength.
    2. Weight Impact: Surprisingly, losing weight too fast can be a challenge for bones. Bones, like muscles, need some 'workout' to stay in shape.
    3. Hormonal Shifts: Our fat does more than store energy. It also affects our hormones, and losing too much fat can throw off our body's balance, influencing bone health.
  • Bone-Strengthening Tips:
    • Eat bone-boosting foods filled with calcium, vitamin D, and protein.
    • Engage in fun physical activities, from walking to dancing.
    • Lifting light weights can be beneficial.
    • Go for regular bone and blood check-ups.
    • Older women might consider treatments like HRT but should consult a doctor first.
  • Extra Bone Care:
    • Stay hydrated, limit soda and alcohol, avoid smoking, and wear good shoes for physical activities.

Weight-loss surgery can change lives. But like anything, it has its ups and downs. One of the challenges might be weaker bones. But with the right care, like eating the right foods, staying active, and going for regular check-ups, you can keep your bones healthy and strong. Remember, every part of our body, including bones, needs love and care
