患有骨质疏松的人,不妨多喝点红茶。国外一项新研究显示,红茶含有的茶黄素有助防止形成破坏骨骼的破骨细胞,患有骨质疏松症的实验鼠摄入这种苦味成分后,其症状得到改善。骨骼内存在制造骨骼的成骨细胞和破坏骨骼的破骨细胞。如果破骨细胞的功能异常活跃,这两类细胞间的平衡就会崩溃,导致骨骼变脆、骨骼量减少,引发骨质疏松症。 People with osteoporosis, may wish to drink some black tea. A new study abroad shows that the theaflavins contained in black tea help to prevent the formation of osteoclast-destroying cells. The symptoms of the experimental mice with osteoporosis after ingestion of this bitterness component are improved. There are bone-making osteoblasts and bone-destroying osteoclasts in the bone. If the function of osteoclasts is abnormally active, the balance between the two types of cells will collapse, causing the bones to become brittle and reduce the amount of bone to cause osteoporosis.
