More than half of all women over 50 (and quite a few men) have osteoporosis, or "porous bones," which leaves them prone to fractures. Learn why bones lose their density over time and how to avoid the condition.
Once bones lose their strength, it's hard to build them back. That's why prevention is so important. We’ll go beyond the dairy aisle to show you how a complete bone-healthy lifestyle can help you avoid osteoporosis.
Living with osteoporosis is one thing -- living with a broken hip is quite another. If you have brittle bones, you’ll want to do everything you can to avoid a bad break. We discuss each of the three essentials for treating osteoporosis: prescription medications, exercise, and good nutrition.
