As we all know, athletes are not allowed to eat at will, such as smoking, drinking, drinking carbonated drinks, etc. Many people don't understand that athletes' physique is much better than that of ordinary people. Why can't they drink carbonated drinks? Let's get to know.
According to experts, smoking, drinking, drinking carbonated drinks will interfere with calcium absorption, resulting in bone loss. Drinking alcohol may cause gastrointestinal mucosal damage and affect the absorption of calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D in the gastrointestinal tract. These are the substances needed for bone metabolism. If the necessary substances for bone metabolism are missing or abnormal, it will inhibit the activity of osteoblasts, which is not conducive to the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. For athletes, this is particularly important.
After smoking, the resistance of respiratory tract is 2-3 times higher than usual. Although people should not have much effect on it when they are quiet, they will feel powerless when they are running, because the respiratory muscles need more oxygen to maintain a certain amount of lung ventilation, which will inevitably increase the oxygen consumption of the human body. During strenuous exercise, the ventilatory oxygen value of people who smoke for a long time is about twice that of non-smokers, even if they smoke a little before exercise, the result is the same.
In addition, excessive drinking will cause certain damage to the kidney, reduce the reabsorption function of calcium, phosphorus and other substances in the kidney, increase the excretion of calcium and phosphorus from the urine, which will not be conducive to the formation of bone. Therefore, in order to prevent osteoporosis, avoid excessive drinking, liver and kidney are important organs for vitamin D to play a role, and toxic substances in cigarettes will cause damage to the liver and kidney.
Scientific research shows that quitting smoking can enhance muscle strength, improve the functions of heart, lung, nerve and other organs of the human body, strengthen the body and make the body healthier, which is conducive to the prevention of osteoporosis. In addition, drink less beverages containing caffeine and carbonic acid, because caffeine can promote the excretion of calcium from urine. If the excretion of calcium in urine increases, Lead to the negative balance of calcium in the body will cause bone loss, so to prevent osteoporosis, caffeinated drinks or less touch. Calcium is one of the indispensable elements to promote bone health. Excessive drinking will interfere with the absorption of calcium and lead to the loss of calcium in urine. Excessive drinking will also increase the risk of falls and fractures.
