Osteoporosis leads to a decrease in bone density and can be caused by menopause or prolonged immobilization.
For someone with osteoporosis, it is a good idea to favor phytoestrogen plants such as soy, whether in powder form or in capsules, as well as in soy-based foods.
Ginseng is also beneficial. You can take three capsules after meals.
Algae are also a good ally, particularly spirulina, whether in capsule form, powder, single-dose sachets, or even as cereal.
Dietary supplements should also not be forgotten, such as calcium, magnesium, or vitamins like vitamin D.
It should also be noted that a sedentary lifestyle should be avoided, and that walking is very important.
The Prophet ﷺ also taught us that camel milk is a very good food for health, and it will be very effective for people with osteoporosis.
What the science says: bones and fractures
What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for context—these studies address material causes, while healing belongs to Allah.
Bones and fractures
Calcium and vitamin D combined reduce fracture risk in people who are deficient or elderly, with some nuances depending on the study (JAMA Netw Open, 2019) (BMJ, 2026); weight-bearing exercise, protein, magnesium, vitamin K, and silicon all contribute to bone strength. Sesame, almonds, sardines, leafy greens, and dates are sources of these. Precaution: high-dose calcium supplementation without vitamin D and without medical advice can be harmful; fracture healing should be monitored with a doctor.
