SUNDAY MARCH 1 2015 LIFESTYLE 23 V1 - NTNE01Z01MA V1 - TELE01Z01BS b+s 05nutrition Alcohol: Its been proven that too much booze over a long period can affect calcium absorption and interfere with the enzymes in the liver that help vitamin D to be at its most active. What isnt known is whether moderate alcohol consumption is good or bad for bones, so drink responsibly and in moderation. Caffeine: The amount of calcium you excrete by drinking tea and coffee is so small that one or two tablespoons of milk could make up for it. Studies that have reported otherwise were likely based on the theory that people consuming a lot of caffeinated drinks werent drinking calciumrich alternatives. Excess sodium is excreted into your urine, and it takes calcium with it. A 2013 Japanese study found that older women who consumed excessive amounts of salt were four times more likely to have bone fractures, regardless of their bone density. The recommended daily sodium intake for adults is 1600mg less than one teaspoon. Reduce your consumption by eliminating processed snacks such as potato chips, and use herbs and spices to enhance meals. Eliminate or cut back processed foods, cheese, takeaway meals and readymade sauces, naturopathic nutritionist Jan Purser says. Potassium-rich foods such as banana, sweet potato and rockmelon can help limit calcium loss. Cut baCk on salt The extent to which these acids affect calcium absorption varies from person to person. One way to keep track of your intake is to only eat seasonal fresh veg. This allows nature to rotate different types of greens in and out of your diet, so youre not overloading on one thats high in these acids. For the same reason, having a green smoothie with spinach or Swiss chard every day isnt a good idea. McGuckin says that if you want to make sure youre getting the most out of your diet, its worth seeking the advice of an accredited practising dietitian. are alCohol and Caffeine bad for your bones?
