Dear Reader,
Did you know that approximately 54 million Americans are living with osteoporosis or low bone mass? Unfortunately, many don’t recognize the symptoms until it is too late. Don’t wait for a fall or fracture to take action. Discover how you can reduce your risk, manage symptoms and effectively treat osteoporosis with the tools provided by Mayo Clinic on Osteoporosis.
As we age, our bones undergo a continuous cycle of rebuilding. However, this process can slow down, leading to conditions like osteopenia and osteoporosis, where bone loss outpaces new growth. The good news is osteoporosis is both preventable and treatable.
In this book, you’ll find clear, practical information on: Factors that affect your risk of osteoporosis Bone density tests to detect weak bones before a break Treatments to help stop bone loss and encourage new bone growth The best food and nutrients for strong bones Ways to reduce your risk of fractures and falls Exercises for building bone — and some to avoid with low bone mass Mayo Clinic on Osteoporosis offers the latest guidance in treatment and prevention. By taking control of your bone health today, you can lower your risk of fractures and continue enjoying the activities you love.
