As you grow and develop, your bones grow and develop too. However, after you have reached your full height, your bones stop growing. This usually occurs during late puberty. However, in order to keep your bones healthy through your adulthood, you need to eat and drink things that are calcium rich. Recent research has also shown that Vitamin D is also needed for bone health because it helps your body absorb calcium.
Calcium rich foods include milk, cheese, nuts, spinach, yogurt, and most other dairy products.
Vitamin D rich foods include fish, soy milk, and milk. You can also get Vitamin D and calcium supplements at most health food stores.
Exercise is also necessary to keep your bones healthy and strong.
