Deficiency diseases occurring out of lack of nutritive elements
occur in every human being of any age and gender. If a human being does not
take nutritive elements through diet, then what human being is sure to suffer
from is deficiency diseases, then whatever the age or whatever gender of that human
being is.
No doubt, deficiency diseases affect every human being of any age
or gender, if they do not take nutritive elements adequately through diet. But,
there are certain deficiency diseases which affect human being of particular
gender more than other. No doubt, it affects both genders male and females, if
both of them does not take adequate nutritive elements through diet. But, there
are certain deficiency diseases which occur in women gender worse than other
gender men due to their different hormonal physiological build up.
The top main deficiency diseases which affect women more are-
1. Deficiency diseases resulting out of calcium deficiency-
These deficiency diseases which occur out of deficiency of calcium
in women more are osteoporosis, osteopenia, and bone loss earlier than men. But,
why these calcium deficiency diseases occur more in women than men and in age
much earlier than men's age of having deficiency diseases? This occurs because
of two reasons, first is, physiological calcium loss every month in menstrual
cycle and second reason is due to hormonal calcium loss, that is, calcium loss occurring
due to stoppage of hormones controlling calcium loss and absorption cycle in menopause.
2. Iron
deficiency disease-
Iron deficiency disease occur in women more than in men and earlier in women than men because of her physiological menstrual cycle, which is very responsible for most of iron loss in each and every menstrual cycle. In men this menstrual cycle does not occur.
