"Surprising Physical Activity Boosts Bone Density, Reveals Study"

TL;DR Summary
Regular exercise has been linked to better bone density, according to a new study. Researchers found that individuals with sedentary lifestyles were less likely to have good bone density, while those who were more active had better bone density and lower body fat percentages. Exercise stimulates bones to remodel with extra deposits of calcium and bone-forming cells, creating stronger and denser bones. To promote good bone density, it is recommended to engage in weight-bearing exercises such as walking, gardening, climbing stairs, and dancing, along with a nutritional diet rich in calcium and vitamin D.
