2 herbs good for bones and joints of the elderly

HẠ MÂY (Theo verywellhealth) |

As we age, the decline in bone-protecting hormones can weaken bones. Therefore, older adults can supplement with certain herbs to help keep their bones healthy.

Thyme

Thyme is used to enhance immune function and treat respiratory, nervous, and heart ailments.

Thyme is a rich source of vitamin K, iron, calcium, and manganese. These minerals play an important role in bone health, promoting proper bone growth and development and reducing the risk of bone disorders.

Regular use of musk improves bone mineral density better than calcium and vitamin D3 supplements.

Thyme may be most effective when used with rosemary. Bone mineral density was higher when combined with this herb than when thyme was used alone.

Thyme is considered safe when used in small amounts because it can be harmful to people with bleeding disorders and hormone-sensitive conditions.

Turmeric

Turmeric has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties and is used to treat arthritis and digestive problems.

Curcumin is the active ingredient in turmeric, which may help improve low bone density.

Turmeric comes in a dried powder form that can be used in cooking. It also comes in tincture, liquid, or capsule form.

However, turmeric can also cause allergies and complications in people with bleeding disorders, diabetes, and gallbladder problems.
