Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak and brittle — so brittle that a fall or even mild stresses such as bending over, or coughing can cause a fracture. Osteoporosis-related fractures most commonly occur in the hip, wrist, or spine. The inside of a bone looks something like a honeycomb. When someone has osteoporosis, the bone, which forms the “walls” of the honeycomb, get smaller, and the spaces between the bone grow larger. The outer shell of the bone also gets thinner. All of this makes a bone weaker.
Osteoporosis affects men and women of all races. But white and Asian women, especially older women who are past menopause, are at highest risk.
Research indicates that a diet including ValAsta would lower the risk and possibly prevent osteoporosis by eliminating free radicals causing bone aging.
Astaxanthin attenuates irradiation-induced osteoporosis in mice by inhibiting oxidative stress, osteocyte senescence, and SASP - Food & Function (RSC Publishing)
The study demonstrated that astaxanthin had preventative effects against osteoporosis in mice. The underlying mechanisms may involve inhibiting oxidative stress and preventing osteocyte aging. Therefore, results provide new insights into the regulation of osteoporosis and suggest a novel strategy for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.
