Find out what product you should eat to prevent osteoporosis and improve bone density, according to Dr. Peter Dingle.

What you need to know about osteoporosis

Over 200 million people worldwide suffer from osteoporosis, a condition that significantly weakens bones. According to the International Osteoporosis Foundation, one in three women over the age of 50 and one in five men will experience osteoporotic fractures at some point in their lives.

Osteoporosis is a medical condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It develops slowly over several years and is often diagnosed only after a fall or sudden impact causes a fracture.

Dr. Peter Dingle, known online as drpeterdinglephd, frequently shares health advice with his 138,800 followers. In a recent video, he emphasized the importance of including certain foods in your diet to "build bone density." According to the expert, prunes are a key food for this purpose.

The doctor explained that prunes are the number one food for health, noting that it’s not milk or dairy products. While probiotics and gut health are crucial, he emphasized that the one food that stands out is dried plums.

In fact, studies have shown that prunes not only stop osteoporosis but can even reverse it and increase bone mineral density.
