Women are being giving advice and gauged osteoporosis risk |
Osteoporosis is a condition in which the bones become fragile and brittle, weakening the entire skeleton and causing great effects to the life quality of a large number of the elderly, especially women.
Osteoporosis leads to high risk of fractures such as breaks or cracks in thigh, wrist, and vertebra bones.
Nevertheless, this condition is known to develop secretly without showing any definite symptoms, which makes it harder to diagnose.
Effective measures to prevent osteoporosis are to add the foods that contain a lot of calcium and vitamin D, especially milk or diary products to everyday diets.
