Greetings my dear friends of Steemit and Healthy Steem
| What do you understand by means of bone health |

Your peak bone density occurs in your late 20s, but as you start getting older you start losing the density of your bone and your bones become softer and softer especially for women after menopause because they get this huge drop in estrogen and if you're going through menopause and you have a problem with the precursor for osteoporosis which is osteopenia.
| What are the key factors and tips in maintenance of bone health |

The first thing to improve your bones is to start taking vitamin D3. It is recommended to take 10 000 iu's every single day.
K2 is very very important in bones K2 works with vitamin D3. so vitamin D3 increases the absorption of calcium in the blood but K2 takes that calcium and derives it right into the bone. If there's not enough vitamin K2 then calcium can tend to settle in the arteries as well in the joints. Now as far as the amount of K2, if D3 is 10 000 ius take a 100 micrograms of K2 and the type of K2 is the mk7 food not the mk4.

You would take some organic grass-fed dairy probably some cheese to get your calcium that's one of the best sources of calcium.
Increase your vegetables to get vitamin C . Vitamin C has everything to do with collagen and there's collagen in bone there's collagen in connective tissue that surrounds bone there's collagen in your joints and so bone is not just about minerals it's about protein and vitamin C and other minerals in the vegetables will help your bone also. The dark leafy greens are loaded with calcium.
Trace minerals are very very important especially copper manganese and zinc. ally are needed for enzymes in certain proteins that help build bone and trace minerals boron is really needed just to make the bone stronger so you might want to take that as an extra thing.
Thank you for reading my post.
I would like to invite three fellow Steemians to participate in the contest.
