Diet to Prevent Osteoporosis PTP

Osteoporosis is a disease caused by a loss of bone density that might be the result of damage to the internal structure of bones or breakdown of bone tissues that cause the bones to become hollower, making different parts of the bones to be more susceptible to breakage than normal. This is especially the case in the spine, hip and wrist bones and can impact people with this condition through frequent back pains, vertebral compression fracture, hunched back, shorter stature and brittle hip and back bones. Some patients might lose their ability to walk altogether. Accordingly, statistics from the WHO found that osteoporosis can happen to people who are 50 years or older and menopausal women by being found in 1 out of 3 females and 1 out of 8 males.
