Another important tip that guarantees the success of the treatment preventing the evolution of osteoporosis is the sun exposure that guarantees the production of vitamin D and the absorption of dietary calcium and moderate physical activity with impact such as walking. See the best exercises for osteoporosis.

But it is not always possible to do a physical activity that has an impact in the case of osteoporosis because of the fragility of the bones, so the other alternative is water aerobics because it does not involve an impact and therefore saves the already fragile bones, at the same time increasing the calcium by the bones.

A walk on dirt, wood or grass is also a good option when the pool is no alternative. The important thing is to take some physical activity and sun exposure, preferably before 11 am or after 4 pm in the summer, every day for 20 minutes without sunscreen plus a diet rich in calcium.
