Foods to Avoid With Osteoporosis

Summary: Osteoporosis makes your bones weak, but certain foods can actually make the problem worse. Eating too much salt, sugar, or red meat can cause your body to lose calcium. Surprisingly, even healthy foods like spinach and wheat bran have natural chemicals that block calcium. You don't have to stop eating them, but you should cook or soak them first! Also, try to limit caffeine, alcohol, and soda. To keep your bones strong, focus on foods rich in calcium and vitamin D.
