In contrast to normal bone, osteoporotic bone is porous, fragile and breaks easily. The 2015 World Osteoporosis Day campaign, launched today and celebrated on October 20, focuses on the role of nutrition, including sufficient intake of calcium, vitamin D and protein, in preventing osteoporosis. Together with its more than 200 member societies worldwide, the International Osteoporosis Foundation will seek to raise awareness of the benefits of a balanced, bone-healthy diet at all stages of life.  www.worldosteoporosisday.org (PRNewsFoto/IOF)

NYON, Suiza, June 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

- La salud ósea comienza en el útero: una buena nutrición es clave para tener huesos fuertes durante toda la vida   

El lanzamiento oficial del Día Mundial de la Osteoporosis -celebrado el 20 de octubre- destaca la importancia de la nutrición para la salud ósea desde la infancia hasta la edad adulta    

Hoy ha tenido lugar el lanzamiento de la campaña del Día Mundial de la Osteoporosis (WOD) 2015 organizado por la International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF). Celebrado el 20 de octubre, el tema de este año se centra en la nutrición y aborda los retos de salud pública asociados con la ingesta insuficiente de calcio, vitamina D y proteína así como otros micronutrientes cruciales para la salud ósea.

La mayoría de las personas no están tomando los niveles diarios recomendados de calcio y vitamina D. De hecho, en todo el mundo, se estima que mil millones de personas tienen niveles inadecuados de vitamina D en su sangre, y las deficiencias pueden encontrarse en todas las etnias y grupos de edad. En China, las estimaciones de la Health Status Survey en 2002 indicaron que menos del 10 % de los ciudadanos chinos tuvieron una ingesta diaria adecuada de calcio. La deficiencia de calcio crónica no tratada puede tener muchas consecuencias graves, incluyendo osteopenia y osteoporosis.

La osteoporosis se ha definido como "una enfermedad pediátrica con consecuencias geriátricas", destacando que la salud ósea se forma muy temprano en la vida; de hecho, en el útero. Un pobre estado nutricional de la madre puede afectar al crecimiento óptimo del esqueleto del bebé. Se ha asociado con un contenido mineral óseo reducido en el adulto a una masa ósea máxima y, a edad más avanzada, un mayor riesgo de fractura de cadera.

Más allá de esto, la infancia y la adolescencia es un momento crítico para la construcción ósea ya que durante este período tanto el tamaño como la fuerza de nuestros huesos aumenta significativamente. Aproximadamente la mitad de nuestra masa ósea se acumula durante la adolescencia. Este proceso continúa hasta mitad de la veintena, cuando se alcanza la masa ósea máxima (la cantidad máxima de hueso posible durante el crecimiento del esqueleto).

Ayudar a un niño a conseguir la fuerza ósea óptima es beneficioso en la edad adulta avanzada ya que hay más hueso en reserva. Como adultos jóvenes, no podrán  reemplazar el tejido óseo tan rápido como lo pierden. Se cree que un incremento del 10 % en la densidad mineral ósea máxima (BMD) -una medida de fuerza ósea - podría retrasar el desarrollo de la osteoporosis en 13 años.

El profesor John Kanis, Presidente de la IOF, señaló: "Nuestro esqueleto es como una casa. Necesita construirse con el material adecuado para mantener la estructura fuerte y mantenerse a lo largo del tiempo para evitar daños a largo plazo. Por ello, comer alimentos como productos lácteos, pescado graso, frutas y verduras nos ofrecerá los nutrientes esenciales que son los bloques de construcción fundamentales para unos huesos fuertes".

Judy Stenmark, CEO de la IOF, añadió que el "99% de cada kilo de calcio encontrado en el organismo reside en nuestros huesos. De allí, la importancia de obtener nuestra ingesta diaria recomendada como combustible para la producción y mantenimiento del hueso. Aliento a todo el mundo a verificar su ingesta diaria de calcio utilizando el Calculador de Calcio de la IOF  y descubrir cuánto calcio están obteniendo y cómo pueden impulsar su consumo diario".

El Calculador de Calcio está disponible gratis en:
