What can you do to keep your bones healthy?
👉Include plenty of calcium in your diet. For adults ages 19 to 50 and men ages 51 to 70, the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is 1,000 milligrams (mg) of calcium a day. The recommendation increases to 1,200 mg a day for women age 51 and older and for men age 71 and older. Good sources of calcium include dairy products, almonds, broccoli, kale, canned salmon with bones, sardines and soy products, such as tofu. If you find it difficult to get enough calcium from your diet, ask your health provider about supplements.
👉Pay attention to vitamin D. Your body needs vitamin D to absorb calcium. For adults ages 19 to 70, the RDA of vitamin D is 600 international units (IUs) a day. The recommendation increases to 800 IUs a day for adults age 71 and older. Good sources of vitamin D include oily fish such as salmon, trout, whitefish and tuna. Additionally, mushrooms, eggs and fortified foods, such as milk and cereals, are good sources of vitamin D. Sunlight also contributes to the body's production of vitamin D. If you're worried about getting enough vitamin D, ask your health provider about supplements.
👉Include physical activity in your daily routine. Weight-bearing exercises such as walking, jogging, and climbing stairs can help build strong bones and slow bone loss.
👉Avoid substance abuse. Don't smoke. If you are a woman, avoid drinking more than one alcoholic drink each day. If you are a man, avoid drinking more than two alcoholic drinks a day.

Slow down and check in on yourself.

Here are some ways to exercise your wrists:
✋Wrist flexion and extension
Place your forearm on a table with your palm down, then bend your wrist to make a fist and hold for 6 seconds. Next, lower your hand and straighten your fingers, holding for 6 seconds. Repeat 8–12 times, then switch hands.
✋Isometric exercises
Position your forearm with your palm up or down, then use your other hand to hold your palm still. Try to bend your wrist while resisting with your other hand. Repeat 10 times in each direction, then repeat several times a day.
✋Wrist curls
While seated with good posture, hold weights in your hands and roll them up and down. You can do 10–15 repetitions.

Neural flossing (also referred to as nerve flossing or neural gliding) is a non-invasive exercise that involves stretching and gliding movements to improve nerve function. Here's a simple exercise to reduce the chancesof developing sciatica: Knee-to-chest sciatic nerve floss >>This sciatic nerve floss variation helps move the sciatic nerve throughout the lower leg. Because your back will stay flat, this exercise places less tension on the entire nerve.
Step 1: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat.
Step 2: Lift one leg to bring your knee closer to your chest. Grab behind your thigh with both hands.
Step 3: While holding your thigh, straighten your knee as much as you can to bring your foot up toward the ceiling.
Step 4: With your leg extended, flex your foot up toward your shin.
Step 5: Hold this position for 5 seconds, then relax and return to the starting position.
Step 6: Repeat 20 times.

Activating stem cells is important because they are responsible for repairing damaged tissues and regenerating new cells throughout the body. Physical activity increases blood flow, improving the delivery of nutrients and oxygen to cells, including stem cells.
