Dear Reader,
Bones form the physical foundation of the body. As with many aspects of health, it's easy to pay little attention to your skeleton until a problem occurs, such as a broken bone.
My passion is helping people avoid broken bones so they can enjoy their lives to the fullest. Even after developing osteoporosis, you can take action to limit or reverse bone loss.
We no longer have to tolerate the pain and disability osteoporosis once caused. That's just the start of the good news you'll find in Mayo Clinic on Osteoporosis.
Mayo Clinic on Osteoporosis brings the passion and expertise of Mayo Clinic health care providers to the page. This book covers state of the art, proven medical strategies to prevent and treat osteoporosis, incorporating recent advances in imaging and medications. It also provides the latest information and guidance on promoting bone health through nutrition, exercise, and your lifestyle.
You'll find a take-charge approach to preventing, diagnosing and managing osteoporosis. You'll find detailed guidance to promote better bone health through diet, exercise, medications and more ...
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 And more! |
