Abstract
One is a living, growing tissue that mainly consists of collagen and calcium, which protects soft organs and supports the body, especially for females. Their genetics, environmental factors, diet, and infections were the main factors affecting the flexibility and strength of the bones. These may arise from various sources, including. The objective was to evaluate the nutritional status of 100 female patients with bone diseases aged 20-40 years. Anthropometric measurements (Weight, height, and BMI), dietary assessments (24-hour recall and daily average nutrient intake), and biochemical parameters (Hemoglobin, serum glucose, uric acid, serum calcium, vitamin C, vitamin D, etc.) were determined. Results showed that the female suffered from second-class obesity; the most common problem was osteoporosis, followed by rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis of the knee joint. Patients were observed to consume high caloric foods, sodium, and cholesterol levels, over 100%, while the other nutrients were lower than DRI, especially calcium (under 50%) . Additionally, their hemoglobin, s. vitamin D,s. Vitamin C and s. calcium were lower than the normal level, while their fasting blood glucose levels, Serum CRP, and ASOT were higher than the normal range. So, the studied group should have a balanced, varied, and calcium-rich diet, regular weight-bearing impact exercise for weight reduction, and muscle-strengthening exercise.
