Dr. Lin Yunfei
After being diagnosed with osteoporosis, patients can make dietary adjustments—such as increasing intake of calcium-rich foods including leafy green vegetables, tofu, dried shrimp, milk, pork rib soup, lean meat, and eggs. Additionally, calcium carbonate supplementation may be used for treatment under a physician’s guidance. During treatment, patients should avoid foods containing excessive preservatives, as these may exacerbate the condition.
