Your Age and the Threat of Osteoporosis
Because you cannot see or feel its presence, osteoporosis is a 'silent disease.
' Osteoporosis can begin to prey upon you leading up to or following your menopausal years.
Since osteoporosis is generally undetectable without medical tests, you need to be informed about the devastating effects of osteoporosis.
Not knowing about the damaging effects that osteoporosis can have on your bones places you at great health risks.
You could have this bone-robbing disease and not know a thing about it until your body suffers one or more broken bones.
For you to learn ahead of time about osteoporosis is your best defense.
The sneaky and lurking thief of bones is osteoporosis.
Age is what opens the door for you to develop osteoporosis.
As you age, from birth to the thirties, your bones increase in their structural strength and sturdiness.
This type of bone matter building process is called bone mineral density.
During your thirties you reached what is known as peak bone mass.
At this point in your life, your bones have arrived at their top level of bone mineral density.
An exception to this peaking may have been if you were pregnant and nursing at some time throughout your thirties or forties.
If you were pregnant during those years, your bones experienced a heightened level in bone matter development.
It is the years during after menopause when the threat of osteoporosis arrives.
Aging, lack of calcium, certain vitamin and mineral deficiencies, and menopause are what can allow osteoporosis to affect you.
As the enemy of strong and sturdy bones, osteoporosis can steal great amounts of the living material and bone matter that your bones are made of.
Osteoporosis can weaken your bones, making them fragile.
When your bones are made weak, as a result of this disease, you are at a higher risk of suffering from bone fractures.
If bone fractures are not bad enough, osteoporosis can affect your skeletal structure, causing you to experience poor posture and changed body positioning.
It is the combined risks to your bones and body position that can cause life changing problems for you.
Your age and the possibility of osteoporosis are the combination that can lead to serious overall health problems.
Experiencing weakened bones, falls, bone fractures and loss of the living matter that makes up your bones, along with aging, are what osteoporosis can cause.
If osteoporosis is left untreated, pain and limited movement can rob you of your quality of life and well-being.
Testing for the presence of osteoporosis, receiving a diagnosis, and, if necessary, being placed on a prescribed course of treatment are a must.
You need to contact your doctor as soon as possible.
This will be your best defense against this devastating bone disease.
Do not let osteoporosis steal away your bones.
Enjoy your 'golden years' by fighting off the bone thief right away by teaming up with your doctor.
