I was reading that people that go on a strict diet yes almost starving oneself to death eating once a day or two times a day could cause major problems.
That going on diet in a controlled way is one thing than a strict diet.
My wife put me on a strict diet.
I really hated it. Well It was feeling like I was starving everyday!! I lost about 55 pounds in 6 months.
What my wife did not tell me is medically speaking you should not lose more than two pounds in a week that is unhealthy. And a buddy of mind said base on article that rapid weight loss could trigger break down of muscle and bone.
If that is true that could explain why my joints like my knees, hip and shoulder and some times my wrist are making a popping/snapping noise.
I probably should go for a bone scan now.
So strict diet is not good.
And well unfortunately most of my life I had no cheese and dairy products!!
I just now started to eat more healthy food like Fruit, Vegetables,cheese and dairy products and eggs two :) some times three times in a week.:)
On average I eat fish once a week.
Did I destroy my body by going on a strict diet and not eating cheese and dairy products?
Should I go for a bone scan now? Is buddy right that strict diet can cause break down of muscle and bone.
If on bone scan it is showing I have thin bones what can I do?
Eating cheese and dairy products every day repair lost bones? Or just stop bones from being more lost?
Will Eating cheese and dairy products every day build more bones and make my bones stronger? Will it help with my joints?
Your so wrong any medical book I read and web site and forum people who do not have dairy products have thin and brittle bones and prone to bone breaks.
This is very obviously not true – many regions’ and countries’ cuisines contain no dairy products, and many populations have very low levels of lactose tolerance. If most people in a given place can’t digest dairy products, then they’re not going to eat much dairy. And they’ll be fine as long as they have alternate sources of calcium (various plant foods).
Just as an easy example – many Chinese cuisines use little or no dairy products. In the past, many or most Chinese people probably consumed no dairy products.
No I don’t go to nutritionist when I can get medical book at book store and read up on vitamins and healthy foods.
I’m not a healthy foods junkie person.
The crucial reason why Your Cracking Bones And Joints Are In conversation with You
What I quoted in bold may be more of concern of me having a very sedentary lifestyle.
It seem if I move around and do stretching exercises it does not make noise. Only when I sit or lay or not move for some time than move a joint.
It not like I’m walking around in store or going up stars in mall and it is making a popping sound. It seems stretching exercises and movements of joints help.
If that was case I would go to ER.
Just because you can modify a Porsche to use a coal-fired steam plant doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. Have we learned nothing from the Jurassic Park movies, let alone Frankenstein?
Try different diets, find something that works for you, and then don’t gorge on anything. Everything in moderation. Get some exercise. Wear sunblock. Tip your waitress.
That not what I read or people I know that have brittle and thin bones and the doctor telling them to eat more dairy or take supplements.
And they had bone scan and was concern. There many people in my family broke their hip.
I could have bone scan and every thing is okay. But there many other people in my family who have thin brittle bones. And they eat many vegetables but hardly any dairy.
There are supplements you can get if you low on vitamins and dairy. But you have to see doctor if you low
OP should see if criminal charges can be filed against his spouse for forcing him to go on such a diet. If authorities refuse to make any formal criminal charges, a civil case should be pursued against her.
Shame, shame, shame.
OP probably won’t need to consult an attorney to follow through on these strategies. He could just get a book out of the library.
You don’t seem to have the ability to determine what a healthy diet is for yourself. You relied on your wife, seemingly neither a doctor, nutritionist, nor medical book, to guide you, and now you fear you have done damage to your body as a result. Why not consult with an actual expert?
If I was healthy food junkie person I would get some medical books. The only way to know if I have thin brittle bones is to have bone scan. There is list on blood work sheet that doctor checks to see if you lacking some thing and will say eat this or take supplements.
My concern is going on strict diet bad?
So what my wife did is bad? It was too fast and too strict of a diet? It should been year or two years not 6 months.
Eating a healthy diet is something everyone who cares about their health should do. It is not just for “healthy food junkie” persons.
Your concerns are best addressed in person by a medical professional. You may have nutritional deficiencies from eating a restricted diet. They can help guide you to healthy food choices and portions that you can live with longterm instead of a restrictive diet.
Just because you may find this stuff interesting … Different populations seem to be impacted by diet differences differently. Some populations can, from a bone health POV, tolerate more salt, whereas others respond to increased salt with calcium loss. Asian women somehow have less risk for fractures even with decreased bone density and mass. Blacks have less total vitamin D but higher bone density (different amounts of vitamin D binding protein). What one group does not need another one may.
Do you have any idea howmany threads with similar themes this poster/character has created (plus the amusing treadmill constipation one) and how many times the character has been advised to see a doctor?
Interestingly (no accusations being made), the same poster who has written coherently in other threads, is, in these “help me with my health” threads, unable to use English properly and always finds a reason to not take any advice given. And interestingly a character who is lactose intolerant is now eating lots of dairy products. Draw your own conclusions.
Meanwhile for others who might be interested … genetics are a major factor in bone mineral density (BMD):
If a person has lots of osteoporosis in the family it would actually be appropriate to be concerned … and getting real expert advice would be indicated. Maybe a bone scan and a vitamin D level check would be called for.
some times three times in a week.:)
