Low bone density
If you’re off your feet all day then you’re at higher risk for osteoporosis, a disease that can cause your bones to become weak and easily broken. The best way to conserve your bone mass is by eating a diet that’s rich in calcium and vitamin D. Dairy products contain both, so they’re a great bone-booster. Other foods packed with calcium include sardines, leafy green vegetables and soybeans.
