Critical Medicine and Treatment

As is known cola itself is a popular beverage in the world, while osteoporosis affects about 55 percent of Americans, especially women. In this study, scientists analyzed medical data from 2500 participants whose age is no more than 60 years and analyze the bone density in the three areas of the hip bones and spine.

The result, women who drink cola on a regular basis (four colas per week), have lower bone density than those who avoid drinking cola. Meanwhile, those who drank cola daily had a decrease in bone density compared to four percent of those who do not consume cola.

Interestingly, in this study did not provide much cola adverse effect on bone density of men. But until now the team is still researching the reasons why this carbonated beverages affect bone density in women. In this diet cola has a comparable effect with regular cola, but decaffeinated cola (without the caffeine content) has no effect on bone density. In conclusion, caffeine in cola is the main cause of increased risk of osteoporosis in women.

Dr. Mone Zaidi, director of the Mount Sinai Bone Program at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York City in support of the research done at Tufts University said: “The involvement of caffeine in the absorption of calcium caused inhibition of the formation of bone mineral composition. If the consume cola habits at a young age continue to be done, it is quite possible they will have osteoporosis before reaching menopause.

And at the age of 30, the body more calcium than storing waste, let alone loss of bone will continue to occur gradually in the age of 40 – 50 years. In addition each person would experience the coming of bone loss varied. It was very reasonable, given the body’s metabolism, while calcium alone will be lost through the nails and sweat, so there should be input calcium, through food. Because the campaign was drinking milk or foods high in calcium since a very young age needs to be done, to prevent the porous bone.
