#LosAngelesCA #MemphisTN You may not think that nutrition has any bearing on acquiring a foot fracture, but it actually does.

Hi, I’m Doctor Nathan Lucas, a podiatrist in Los Angeles and Memphis, and today I would like to talk to you about the connection between these two issues.

Your body needs nutrients to stay strong and healthy. When the body lacks these nutrients, such as calcium, the bones become weaker and more at risk for fractures or breaks. Therefore, it’s important to maintain a good, healthy diet filled with fruits and vegetables, grains, dairy and lean meats.

If you think you may have a foot fracture or other abnormality of the foot, I encourage you to visit me, Doctor
