Come Tube Calcium since Early

Osteoporosis is common in those who are elderly. However, we recommend an early age you start to anticipate it by consuming enough calcium.

Bone is useful to protect organs in the body. Bone name "woven" is taken from forms such as woven, until after the birth of bone called "lamellar". The bones begin to grow since the womb. When a baby is born, the number of bones is 350 units. But as adults, the amount of bone has been reduced to 206 units.
Because there are bones that connect to one another, forming a stronger bone.
 
Can be imagined if the body has no bones, just a pile of meat in the human body.

Bone consists of hard substances such as stone, namely calcium. But unlike the dead stone, bone, life, flexible, and grow. After the child is born, the process of bone growth influenced the growth hormone and calcium.

Calcium is a mineral that most numerous in the body, which is around 1.5 to 2 percent of adult body weight or approximately as much as 1 kg, and about 99 percent of the calcium present in hard tissues of the bones and teeth. Calcium is needed of all ages. Not just for the elderly, but also at the age of the children. In children, it is very high calcium needs. "The growth of bone in children occur from zero to 18 years, but the peak of physical growth of children occurs when a child of school age, which is around 8-15 years.

Bones continue to grow and reached a peak in adult time. However, gender differences also play a role in the formation of bone mass. In young women shorter span of time of growth, ie before menstruation, while for boys a longer period of growth.

Girls who grow up, accommodating more bone mass at the inner cortex, which supports trabecular, forming a debriefing of calcium as inventory when pregnant and breastfeeding.

Whereas in boys, more bone mass collected on the outer cortex. The bigger the diameter, then the bones are also stronger.

In this growth process, also occurred compaction process of the bone, where bone compaction process depends on normal levels of reproductive hormones, beta exposure to ultraviolet (UVB) short of the morning and afternoon sun (Vitamin D), calcium intake, vitamin K, the sport at the age of puberty, and lifestyle.

Stimulation can be integrated from the inside that is by ensuring a complete and balanced nutrition properly, especially the intake of calcium to support bone growth and strength. Meanwhile, the stimulation from the outside can be either physical activity or exercise that serves to help bone density. Such as exercising 30 minutes a day for three times a week, like walking or running.
 
Parental attention and effort are needed, because if malnutrition in this stage will not be irreplaceable. Therefore, calcium is important for future savings from an early age until age 30.

Saving can be done by fulfilling the calcium intake of calcium contained in milk or other supplementary food such as cheese.

Osteoporosis is not a problem child, but a matter of the future, but the root problem is the children. That is why it is important to pay attention to nutrition, especially calcium intake of children so that they avoided the issue of bone density in later old age. So, start to get children to save calcium by eating nutritious foods and adequate calcium intake.

Rice is the staple food most Indonesian people. When harvested, the skin is still covered with rice husks (epicarp). Rice is also wrapped by the inner skin or epidermis (aleurone and pericarp). Subsequently harvested rice grain through the stages of drying and threshing, and splitting the skin, and milling.
 
The rice that we eat everyday or white rice is generally derived from rice that has been milled. Grain milling yield of paddy rice in the net without the epidermis. This makes rice exfoliation become fluffier when cooked, but it eliminates most of the nutrients contained in rice.

Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health states, eating two or more servings of brown rice for a week apparently associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes. On the other hand they reported eating five or more servings of white rice for a week associated with an increased risk of same disease.
 
Replacing 50 grams per day of white rice (not cooked, the equivalent of one to three tablespoons) with equal amounts of red rice will reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by 16 percent.
 
While replacing white rice with the same portion with other grains such as barley and wheat, is associated with a 36 percent decreased risk of diabetes. This study will be published online in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine. The researchers say this is the first study to specifically compare the white rice with brown rice in relation to increased risk of type 2 diabetes in the United States citizens.
 
White rice husk is made by removing the skin and parts of red rice seedlings. The researchers suggested that more than 70 percent of the rice eaten in the United States is a kind of white.
 
After adjusting for age and other lifestyle problems and dietary risk factors, men who consumed five or more servings per week of white rice has a 17 percent increased risk of diabetes, compared with those who ate less than one serving per month. However, eating two or more servings per week of red rice proved to be 11 percent lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes, compared with eating less than one serving of brown rice per month.
 
Another consequence of the purification process, including the loss of fiber, vitamins, magnesium and other minerals, such as lignans, phytoestrogens, and phytic acid, which may be a protective factor for risk of diabetes.

Replacing white rice and other refined grains with brown rice to prevent type 2 diabetes. Red rice, the researchers said, are often not quickly produce elevated levels of blood sugar after a meal.

Nutrition problems are not only experienced by people with low income status, but also many people with middle to high incomes who still experience the problem of nutrition. It could be due to lack of knowledge of what kind of balanced nutrition that should be obtained by any person.
 
One of the problems are fairly balanced nutrition often occurs, including micronutrients. Micronutrient is our body's nutritional needs are not directly we feel the consequences.
 
While the WHO global data (2000) shows, the world's undernourished population of nearly 3 billion micro, where residents are experiencing due to iron deficiency anemia is as much as 2 billion, and most who suffer are children. Other data from the world health agency, WHO says, any one of three people in developing countries suffer from lack of vitamins and minerals.

Sarah said, although not happen directly, but many parents who transmit the bad influences in eating healthy foods to their children. Not familiar with such foods with balanced nutrition.
 
Although micronutrients needed by the body in very small amounts, but by no means be underestimated due to micronutrient deficiencies micronutrients if we can have a negative impact on health.
 
To avoid the lack of intake of micronutrients, one of which can be done by eating beef without fat. Though, with the consumption of beef without the fat, the nutrients in the case of iron can be fulfilled as long as children are consumed in sufficient quantity and balanced, not less and not excessive.

Fresh meat consumption standards set by the world food organizations (FAO) in 2008 to fight malnutrition, which is 33 kg / year / capita. While the data in 2007 from the Directorate General of Livestock, Ministry of Agriculture Indonesia, indicates that the average consumption of fresh beef Indonesian population is only about 0.53 kg / year / capita, where the figure is very low than the recommended standard.
 
Some reasons for lack of or low meat intake in children in Indonesia, among the children who think less like eating beef for reasons difficult to chew (tough / hard). Even some of the reasons of the mother also mentioned that cooking beef requires a long time.

Consuming 122 grams of beef per day to meet the needs of iron. In order to obtain equal benefits, we must consume 7.9 kg of fish.

Children who experience iron deficiency as one micronutrient can cause a decline in intelligence of emotional intelligence as well. In addition, it also can lead to decreasing levels of hemoglobin, which is a chemical compound in red blood cells that function to carry oxygen throughout the body, which we are familiar with anemia.
