Médica especialista em longevidade compartilha dica simples para a saúde óssea

A médica de atenção primária Amanda Kahn recomenda adicionar resistência às rotinas diárias para melhorar a saúde dos ossos e da coluna.

A Dra. Amanda Kahn, especialista em longevidade, sugere incorporar resistência leve às atividades cotidianas. Ela pessoalmente utiliza pesos nos pulsos e tornozelos, além de um colete com pesos enquanto anda de patins ou até mesmo ao secar o cabelo. Estudos indicam que exercícios com carga podem ajudar a prevenir a osteoporose e a sarcopenia, especialmente para mulheres após os 30 anos, quando a massa óssea atinge seu pico. Kahn observa que essas pequenas adições são melhores do que nada e podem ser incluídas em agendas lotadas sem grandes mudanças.
