Yogasanas to Prevent Calcium Deficiency

Once we cross 40 years our bones slowly become weak. So we start taking calcium tablets to prevent it. These asanas help you take in more vitamin D from the sun thereby prevent calcium deficiency.
You won't see either vitamin D deficiency or calcium deficiency. Vitamin D absorbed by body is activated by parathyroid hormone (PTH) which in turn helps intestines absorb calcium.

Stand facing towards the sun. Take water in a copper jug and pour the water slowly in front of you from above the head in such a way that sun rays reflect from water and fall on our skin. Do this 3 times. It is good for the skin.
