52% of Asian women aged 50 and above are estimated to have low bone mass.

35% of Asian men aged 50 and above are estimated to have low bone mass.

Osteoporosis is called a silent disease because it is often diagnosed only after a person suffers a fracture in which the bones becomes thin and brittle. However, you do not have to wait till then to find out you are losing your bones. Bone formation and depletion is a natural condition of life, but as age increases, bone depletion accelerates much faster than its formation, often due to insufficient ionized calcium storage.

• Protection from increasing bone loss due to aging.

During season festive time, just like Chinese New Year, most of us getting ourselves busy spring cleaning the house, going shopping buying new clothes, shoes and others new stuffs and not forgetting going supermarket to get food in order to prepare ourselves a sumptuous meal for the reunion dinner or meals for the guests and that will make us having not enough time – so what happen! Lack of sleep..

What happens when you cannot catch up?
Chronically losing sleep results in sleep debt, which can lead to serious consequences. Sleep debt is cumulative, and even small nightly sleep losses can add up to affect your daytime function. Possible consequences include increased accidents and poor performance on the job or in school.

Long-term sleep deprivation can affect your physical and mental health. Sleep helps bolster your immune system so that you can fight off viruses and bacteria. After a few nights of absolutely no sleep, some people begin hallucinating.

When you do not get enough sleep, you may feel less alert and less vigorous and perhaps, more confused, irritable and fatigued. Lack of sleep affects not only your energy level but also your mental and social functioning. You may find it more difficult to concentrate. You may find that you lose patience quickly, that you become less interactive in your relationships and that you become less productive at work.

Do not be embarrassed about your need for sleep!
You may find yourself routinely dozing off in mid of day or having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep of your need for sleep. But in reality, sleep is just as important as the activities you perform during your waking hours.

Sleep ranks at the top of the list of human necessities — right along with air, water and food. It is more than a timeout from daily life or a passive retreat. A good night’s sleep leaves you feeling refreshed, alert and ready to tackle the day’s tasks.

Will napping help?
The urge for a midday nap is built into your body’s biological clock. Usually between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. you experience a slight drop in your body temperature, indicating nap time.

If you are not getting enough sleep, napping may or may not help. The best solution is to go to bed earlier. If that is not possible, a daytime nap might give you the boost you need, helping you feel more energized and alert. If you have insomnia, though, a daytime nap may make sleeping at night more difficult.If you do nap, keep it short, called it a Cat Nap — limit it to 20 or 30 minutes late in the morning or in the mid noon. And do not rely on naps to keep you going. Try to get enough sleep to avoiding a sleep deficit.
