Elderly people with weak legs? These 2 kinds of nutrients can help to strengthen the body!
When I get older, I always feel that my feet are weak and I can't lift my strength, what is the reason for this?
As life expectancy continues to rise, so does the ageing population. However, people's bodily functions will decline with aging, mainly manifested as: muscle strength, motor ability, etc. As they get older, many elderly people show weakness in their legs. One of the most significant changes in aging is a decrease in the body's natural metabolism. Normally, the body's metabolic rate is at its highest between the ages of 20-30, after which it slows down. This resulted in a decrease in the amount of protein in his body.
As a result, the body's metabolism cannot keep up with the rate of consumption, resulting in a decrease in protein, as well as the number and size of fibers in the muscles. This leads to a decrease in the number of muscles in the elderly, i.e., the depletion of muscle fibers. You can clearly see that many elderly people have obvious atrophy in their bodies. Due to the contraction of these muscles, the muscles of the lower limbs of elderly patients cannot bear their own weight, and then the phenomenon of lower limb weakness is produced. Secondly, as the elderly age, the nervous system also changes. The number of nerve cells in humans declines with age, and the connections between synapses become weaker. This alteration can reduce nerve transmission and reflexes in older people, which in turn affects their body's balance and coordination. When older people try to stand up or walk, their legs become weak because they do not have adequate nervous system support. In addition, bones are also the most important organs of the human body, which not only bear the weight of the human body, but also for the life activities of the human body, such as calcium, phosphorus, etc. However, the bones of the body undergo a series of changes as they age. We all know that calcium is essential for the normal development of the human body. However, as we age, the body's absorption of calcium becomes less and less so. As we age, the ability to digest and absorb food decreases, and there is often a lack of calcium absorption, which reduces the amount of calcium in the bones, which reduces the strength of the bones. These physiological changes will have a certain impact on the physical condition of the elderly, so there will be symptoms of leg weakness. Another point is undernutrition.
Some people may wonder, I have eaten well and slept regularly, why do I still have the problem of nutritional deficiencies? This is due to the gradual decline of the body's function with age, its demand for nutrients is increasing, and its ability to absorb nutrients is getting weaker and weaker. The doctor reminded: The old man feels that his feet are weak, so he should make up for these three things, and do the three methods together to teach you to change!
The first element is to take care of the bones.
With age and long-term wear and tear, joints and bones will gradually become fragile and even degenerate malignantly, followed by a variety of bone and joint problems, at first may only be manifested as discomfort and slight pain in the limbs, if ignored, it will lead to aggravated joint wear and tear. It is recommended to start maintenance from middle age and old age, we can supplement Guyi arthropeptide every day to maintain joints and strengthen bones, the ammonia sugar in Guyi arthropeptide can delay the degeneration and inflammation of bone joints, and can promote bone growth, and can also remove harmful substances in the joint cavity, and chondroitin can stimulate and increase bone density, reduce bone hyperplasia or fractures, calcium carbonate will promote joint reconstruction, help protect joint cartilage and reduce friction, thereby enhancing joint function and reducing pain. Long-term supplementation of Guyi arthrthropeptide can effectively improve and alleviate fractures, bone cracks caused by low bone density, chronic inflammation such as arthritis, frozen shoulder, rheumatoid, osteoporosis and other joint and bone problems.
The second element: protein.
Protein is the main substance that makes up the body, as well as the main substance that makes up muscles and bones. In the elderly population, the aging of skeletal muscle is a common phenomenon, and the protein content in the human body is too low, which will cause muscle contraction, resulting in weakness of the body. Therefore, the elderly should increase the protein content in their diets, especially eat more protein foods at three meals. Older people need more protein than other nutrients. The elderly should ingest 08 g of protein, that is, 40 g of protein for a 50 kg old man a day.
