It is called the “silent disease” and most commonly associated with
menopausal women. Women are diagnosed with low bone density or
osteoporosis.
But, the disease doesn’t only attack women- one in four men older than 50 will break a bone due to osteoporosis.
This is a medical condition in which the bones become brittle and
fragile from loss of bone tissue.
Getting enough of vitamin D naturally or by supplement form plus
diet will help. Oily fish, and fortified milk are the way to go.
Weight bearing exercise such as walking, climbing stairs, and jogging
will help build and maintain strong bones and slow bone loss.
