Long Beach, CA;Chicago, IL;Houston, TX (PRWEB) 28 of December, -- Doctors Health Press, a division of Lombardi Publishing Corporation and publisher of various essential health newsletters, books, and reports, including the popular online Doctors Health Press e-Bulletin, is announcing on a study that has found that consuming carrots is even nutritious than before. According to the studys findings, carotenoids, the pigments in fruit and vegetables that create them colorful, can help save senior men from hip cleavage.

As Doctors Health Press e-Bulletin (http://www.doctorshealthpress.com/food-and-nutrition-articles/avoid-hip-fractures-with-this-nutrient) notes, the information was revealed at a major osteoporosis conference in Singapore, and comes from the Singapore Chinese Health Study, which examined more than 63,000 adults over the age of 45 to investigate the possibility of a link between carotenoids and hip fracture risk. The companions suffered 1,630 hip fractures between 1993 and 2010.

As the article Avoid Hip Fractures with this Nutrient reports, the men in the study who ate the largest amount of total vegetables and total carotenoids had the largest protection from hip fractures, which are often brought on by weakening bones and osteoporosis. The best known carotenoid is the beta-carotene, the orange pigment in carrots and other shiny veggies. For women, vegetables and carotenoids have not protect hip bones from fracture.

The Doctors Health Press e-Bulletin article tops that a good rule of thumb for carotenoids is that the increased amount of yellow and orange produce a person eats, the additional of these potent antioxidants they will ingest. Carotenoids are reformed by the body into vitamin A.

The article concludes that the study shows that getting carotenoids through the diet is connected to fracture protection for men, but increasing studies will be essential to see if supplementing carotenoids can do the same.
