Important Factors to Avoid in Preventing Osteoporosis
By :
The tendency to develop osteoporosis depends on a number of factors, important ones of which are listed below:
Understanding Osteoporosis
By :
Osteoporosis is a progressive disease that weakens bones, enhancing the danger of sudden and unexpected fractures. Literally, Osteoporosis means ‘porous bones’. The pores develop in bones after an extensive loss of bone mass. The disorder is mainly linked to the aging process, although it can affect people of any age. The disease is more prevalent among women, particularly the menopausal women, but it occurs among men as well.
3 Main Symptoms of Osteoporosis
By :
Osteoporosis generally develops without any apparent symptoms and therefore is referred to as ‘silent disease’. A few of the symptoms that do arise generally emerge only in the advanced stages. People normally do not become aware of the disease being cropping up, unless their bones turn out to be so weak that a light bump or a fall leads to a fracture or collapse of a vertebra. Some people may also develop stooped posture, loss height or severe have back pain when the disease is in its advanced stage.

I wrote this article in response to my shock at the news as presented by the network media on the calcium study results published by the New England Journal of Medicine. The results that were published are far more telling than the "spin" and interpretation as presented by the network news programs, no doubt, as influenced by the ad dollars being spent on those networks by the drug companies.
