After the age of 30, bone loss begins to occur, especially in postmenopausal women, the rate of bone loss increases rapidly. Calcium supplementation cannot rely on just one food. Comprehensive supplementation is needed to maintain calcium in the body.
We should have a calcium-rich breakfast, drink a glass of 240 ml of milk in the morning, containing 290 mg of calcium and add a spoonful of black sesame powder, containing 340 mg of calcium. In addition, drinking an extra glass of milk in the evening can easily supplement the recommended daily calcium intake of 1,000 mg.
The calcium content in black sesame seeds is up to 974 mg/100 grams. In addition to calcium supplementation, sesame also has antioxidant effects, lower cholesterol, regulate blood lipids, and protect the cardiovascular system.
Sesamine in sesame can promote the differentiation of bone-forming cells in humans. At the same time, it inhibits the differentiation process and function of bone-decomposing cells, which can prevent or reduce osteoporosis.
You can choose calcium-rich foods later for lunch and dinner, such as cruciferous vegetables, kelp... Kelp is also a very good source of calcium, especially suitable for vegetarians.
