Phosphorus is one of the essential elements for human body. Most people are not short of phosphorus, because most foods contain phosphorus. According to relevant data, the appropriate intake of phosphorus is 1000mg, and the tolerance is 3500mg, which is the adult standard. However, drinking a can of coke consumes very little phosphorus. If you drink dozens of cans of coke a day, you may reach your tolerance. Therefore, drinking cola at ordinary times will not lead to osteoporosis, but drinking too much will cause some problems. Some people eat a high-calcium diet and have higher tolerance to phosphorus. For people with calcium deficiency, the situation is just the opposite.

Osteoporosis will have an impact on patients' lives and easily lead to fractures. Therefore, if it can be prevented, preventive measures must be taken. Take the following measures to prevent osteoporosis:

1, primary prevention

Prevention of osteoporosis can start at an early age, and attention should be paid to reasonable diet, nutrition and lifestyle. Usually eat more foods with high calcium and phosphorus. Fish, shrimp, milk, dairy products, bone soup, eggs, beans, miscellaneous grains, green leafy vegetables and other foods can be eaten more. Besides, we should do more exercise and get more sunshine. Some bad habits should be changed. Don't smoke or drink. Coffee, carbonated drinks, strong tea, etc. You should drink less.

2. Secondary prevention

In middle age, bone mass decreases. For postmenopausal women, the number of bone loss is more. In this case, we need to pay attention to it and take corresponding measures. The rapid bone loss requires preventive measures. In order to prevent osteoporosis, calcium supplementation is needed for a long time. Postmenopausal women can receive long-term estrogen replacement therapy.

3. Tertiary prevention

It is very important for osteoporosis patients to inhibit bone resorption and promote bone formation. Osteoporosis patients are more prone to fracture, so it is necessary to take measures to prevent falls and bumps. However, patients with fractures need surgery and the injured parts need to be fixed.

It is rumored that a 27-year-old boy's long-term drinking of cola led to osteoporosis and his girlfriend was taken away. Therefore, it is concluded that drinking cola for a long time leads to osteoporosis, and even the following research is cited as evidence: A recent study by the Institute of Public Health of Harvard University in the United States shows that girls who like to drink soft drinks are three times more likely to have fractures than girls who don't drink soft drinks, while girls who like cola are five times more likely to have fractures than girls who don't drink soft drinks. The researchers said that the relationship between drinking cola and fracture is not clear.

Someone has analyzed that coke contains phosphorus. Drinking cola for a long time leads to excessive phosphorus intake, which affects the balance of calcium and phosphorus in the body and causes excessive calcium excretion, leading to osteoporosis. The phosphorus content in a can of cola (330ml) is 33mg, which is not as high as that in 100ml milk (73mg). The daily tolerance of healthy adults is 3500mg, which is about 106 cans of cola. In other words, if you drink more than 106 cans of coke every day, the phosphorus will exceed the standard. One day 106 cans of coke died before osteoporosis.

It seems that the statement of high phosphorus is very unreliable. As for the claim that caffeine causes osteoporosis, there is no clear evidence.

The study of Harvard University in the United States is an "isolated case", which only found a phenomenon and did not determine the causal relationship between drinking cola and osteoporosis. According to the analysis, the biggest possibility is that people who love cola don't drink milk, which leads to insufficient calcium intake and eventually leads to osteoporosis.

The International Osteoporosis Foundation regards the following factors as risk factors for osteoporosis: gender, family factors, menopause, malnutrition, insufficient intake of calcium and vitamin D, smoking and alcoholism. Other factors are not clear.
