Abstract
Osteoporosis is a significant public health concern, particularly in aging populations, leading to fractures, decreased mobility, and reduced quality of life. While calcium and vitamin D have long been recognized as essential for bone health, emerging research suggests that potassium may play a crucial role in maintaining bone density and preventing osteoporosis. This manuscript explores the relationship between potassium and osteoporosis, delving into the mechanisms, epidemiological evidence, and potential therapeutic implications of potassium in bone health. Furthermore, the manuscript discusses the sources of dietary potassium, its impact on bone metabolism, and the future directions in research and clinical practice regarding potassium's role in osteoporosis management.
骨质疏松症是一个重大的公共健康问题，尤其是在老龄人口中，它会导致骨折、活动能力下降和生活质量降低。长期以来，钙和维生素 D 被认为对骨骼健康至关重要，而新的研究表明，钾可能在维持骨密度和预防骨质疏松症方面发挥着至关重要的作用。本手稿探讨了钾与骨质疏松症之间的关系，深入研究了钾在骨骼健康中的作用机制、流行病学证据和潜在治疗意义。此外，手稿还讨论了膳食钾的来源、膳食钾对骨代谢的影响以及钾在骨质疏松症治疗中作用的未来研究和临床实践方向。
