Foods that can harm the bones:
1. Vegetables with high oxalate content: Vegetables like spinach contain oxalates that can combine with calcium and form calcium oxalate, hindering calcium absorption. It is recommended to blanch these vegetables before consuming them to destroy oxalates.
2. Salt: Consuming excessive amounts of salt can lead to the excretion of excess sodium by the kidneys. For every 1000 milligrams of sodium excreted, 26 milligrams of calcium are lost. This can affect the body's calcium absorption and result in more calcium loss.
