Bone Health - Boneindex

Only around 25% of people with osteoporosis have been diagnosed globally.

What is Osteoporosis?

Osteoporosis is a condition where bones become weaker and more fragile, increasing the risk of fractures. It develops silently over time and often has no symptoms – until a fracture occurs.

It is especially common in women after menopause, but men and younger individuals can be affected too.

Why Bone Health Matters

  • Osteoporosis leads to millions of fractures worldwide each year.
  • Many people are unaware they have the condition until they experience a broken bone.
  • Early detection can help prevent fractures and maintain independence and quality of life.

What You Can Do to Prevent It

Maintain strong bones by focusing on:

  • Calcium and Vitamin D: Through food, supplements, and safe sun exposure.
  • Regular physical activity: Especially weight-bearing and balance exercises.
  • Healthy habits: Avoid smoking and limit alcohol consumption.

Fall prevention: Take steps at home and outdoors to avoid injuries.
