Dear Reader,

Around 54 million Americans live with osteoporosis or low bone mass, but many don't recognize the symptoms until it is too late. Before a bad fall or fracture renders you immobile, learn how to reduce your risk of developing osteoporosis, manage your day-to-day symptoms, and even treat the disease with the tools provided in Mayo Clinic on Osteoporosis.

Throughout your life, your bones are constantly rebuilding. But as you age, you run a greater risk of your new bone growth not being able to keep up with the old bone you’re losing. In this book Ann Kearns, M.D., Ph.D., a leading endocrinologist at Mayo Clinic, provides clear, practical information on the following and more:

Bone density tests that reveal 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

Even after developing osteoporosis, you can limit or reverse bone loss. Order your copy of Mayo Clinic on Osteoporosis today, and take control of your bone health, lower your risk of fractures and live a full, healthy life.
