Everyone seems to be raving about bone mass and bone density since they believe its the magical component which will make them ascend
There are several threads on this forum for gaining bone mass but they always miss something out
Now what no one talk about is
HABITS THAT KILL BONE DENSITY
There are several habits which many people do on a day to day basis raping their looks they do not even know about
Don't worry I'm here to save you
Number 1: Too much Caffeine
Caffeine will increase calcium excretion in your urine since you are pissing too often
This means you are flushing calcium which is vital to bone growth and health down the toilet
This is especially a problem if you are not supplementing it or prioritizing it

Number 2: Calorie Deficit
Anyone in a calorie deficit for a long time even clean eaters are suppressing estrogen and IGF-1, two hormones essential for bone remodeling and therefore your bones won't be growing
I'm not telling you to gymcel bulk and get fat but try to eat at maintenance if you need to cut make sure its not in puberty or for too long of a period

Number 3: Excess Oxalates
Whilst the media tells us that foods such as almonds, spinach and greens are nutrient dense they aren't perfect
They will bind to calcium in your body making it unavailable for bone use
Whilst I'm not telling you to completely cut out vegetables as I know this is very difficult for people living with their parents please make sure they are at least cooked before you have vegetables

Number 4: Air Refresheners and Scented Candles
These contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which raise oxidative stress and suppress osteoblast genes
Studies even show people living in polluted cities have measurably lower bone density even after adjusting for lifestyle

Number 5: Low Cholesterol
Oh but the media tells me cholesterol is bad and I should avoid it
Cholesterol is the raw material for vitamin D and testosterone, all key to bone metabolism
therefore low cholesterol can quietly suppress osteoblast activity
Don't listen to the media telling you cholesterol is bad and start eating a fuck ton of eggs
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9399501/
Number 6: Exposure to blue light
Some of you have probably heard about this but I will break it down for you
When you doomscroll social media or even this forum when its dark outside or before you go to sleep your body suppresses melatonin since blue light isn't natural and the red light from the sunset told our body to relax
Melatonin does't just regulate sleep but its also a bone signaling molecule
therefore being on any screen at night will tell your body to stop regenerating and this includes bones
