this is due to age bony calcium depletes as age progress calcium is not a part of bony it is mere embedded in bony matrix, due to ageing process due to hormonal changes calcium leaves bone and settles in smooth muscle. If you use calcium it may not serve purpose, bony matrix or cartilage can be strength by ayurvedic drugs. please consult ayurvedic physician
