Bone Metabolism refers to the continuous process of bone formation and resorption, maintaining the skeletal system's structural integrity. Osteoblasts, responsible for bone formation, deposit new bone tissue, while osteoclasts break down and absorb old or damaged bone tissue. This dynamic balance is vital for bone health, influencing bone density and strength. Hormones, particularly parathyroid hormone and calcitonin, play essential roles in regulating Bone Metabolism. Vitamin D is also crucial for calcium absorption, a key mineral in bone structure. Imbalances in Bone Metabolism can lead to conditions such as osteoporosis, characterized by decreased bone density and increased fracture risk. Aging, hormonal changes, and nutritional deficiencies can impact Bone Metabolism. Physical activity, especially weight-bearing exercises, promotes healthy Bone Metabolism by stimulating bone formation. Nutrition, including an adequate intake of calcium and vitamin D, is crucial for supporting bone health throughout life. Understanding and promoting optimal Bone Metabolism are essential for preventing bone-related disorders and maintaining overall musculoskeletal well-being.
