The best foods for bone health

While one can suffer from bone pain or broken bones, there are some ways to prevent these things from happening.

Diet plays an important role for bones, just like for any other part of the body.

Dietitian from Ohio University, Antoinette Hardie, has said that dairy is very good when it comes to bones.

"Foods that contain calcium are the best for bones," Hardie tells Fox News.

In addition to calcium, dairy also contains vitamin K2, which is also essential for bones as it allows calcium to penetrate deep into them.

The next food is blueberries and other fruits that contain vitamin C, as it helps the body absorb calcium better.

Vitamin C is essential for the production of collagen, which is important for the density and health of bones as it prevents them from breaking.

The third food in a row is nuts, as they are a source of calcium that does not come from animal products.

In addition to calcium, walnuts contain magnesium, the mineral that regulates calcium levels in bones.

"Magnesium is necessary for the activation of vitamin D and K2, which are responsible for the strength of the bones," said the nutritionist.

Broccoli may not appeal to many, but it is packed with nutrients that keep bones healthy.

This green vegetable contains calcium, vitamin C and K, which are necessary for repair  bones.
