Osteoporosis And Celiac Disease
Osteoporosis is when your bones become soft and
brittle. This is sometimes associated with calcium
deficiency. It can also be associated with Celiac
disease as the gut damage can lead to malabsorption
of calcium. Diagnosis can be determined by your
doctor.
To help minimize the risk of developing osteoporosis
you can try and consume 1000 mg of calcium a day.
It can also help to exercise and avoid too much alcohol
and tobacco.
Foods high in calcium include dairy, eggs and fish.
