UNDERSTANDING OSTEOPOROSIS What is Osteoporosis? Osteoporosis is a progressive bone disease that weakens the bones and increases the risk of fractures. It is a "silent disease," because bone loss occurs without symptoms. Risk Factors Diagnosis Bone densitometry (DEXA) X-ray: • Detects osteoporosis before a fracture occurs • Predicts chances of fracturing in the future Women and post- menopausal women Men with significant smoking history • Determines rate of bone loss • Monitors the effects of treatment Family history Inactive lifestyle Treatment Follow your doctor's recommendations. Getting older Low testosterone levels (men) Take calcium and vitamin D supplements. Eat dairy and dark leafy and green vegetables. Take prescribed medications. Alcohol Smoking Prevention 介 Walk or jog regularly. Eat dairy products and dark leafy and green vegetables daily.
