Simple Steps for Bone Health

**Do you take any of these steps??  Inquiring minds want to know!




CalciumOf the nearly ten million Americans estimated to have osteoporosis, about eight million are women, so it's no surprise that bone health is near the top of just about every list of women's health concerns. While it's a very common disease, some simple steps to prevention can get those rates down--and keep you from becoming one of the statistics.


Taking care of your bones may sound tough, since you can't necessarily see the results. But the National Osteoporosis Foundation makes it easier with five steps to follow for good bone health.



For an in-depth look at healthy bones, check out Dr. Madelyn Fernstrom's top tips. With Osteoporosis Awareness Month coming up in May, we'll see plenty of news and updates about osteoporosis treatment and prevention. So stay tuned to our bone health news for more updates.
