How to Treat Fractures With Supplements



Bones fracture when something hits against them, causing them to break. This could be a car accident or
sports
injury, for example. Fractures are also caused by medical conditions that weaken the bones, like osteoporosis. Once the break is stabilized with a splint or cast, it should naturally heal itself. Supplements can be used to build up bone strength and speed the healing process.









1


Research herbal remedies for fractures. Go online and look through the various resources there. You can also buy a research book.





2


Get your calcium in. Drinking a glass of milk won't cut it, so take a calcium supplement. Studies show that people who increase their calcium ward off fractures and improve their bone health.





3


Strengthen your bones with vitamin D. It helps your body absorb calcium from the intestinal tract. Taking the calcium won't do you much good unless you get it into your system.





4


Take a bone, flesh and cartilage herb. The combination supports bone, flesh and cartilage. It also speeds up the recovery.





5


Buy glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) supplement. It's a three-in-one formula that builds cartilage and improves joint health. Tendons, ligaments and joint tissues benefit from the minerals.





6


Go online to find supplements to treat herbs. There are several websites that sell herbs.





7


Ask the salesperson at your local health food store about supplements. They're experts and should have plenty of advice.
