This World Osteoporosis Day, let’s take a lifelong approach to bone health. 🦴
From building strong bones in childhood and maintaining them through adulthood, to protecting against osteoporosis and reducing fracture risk later in life, every stage matters.
Whatever your age, you can take steps to support stronger, healthier bones:
🦴 Build: Enjoy a balanced diet rich in calcium and protein, stay active with weight-bearing and muscle-strengthening exercise, and make healthy lifestyle choices.
🦴 Protect: Understand your osteoporosis risk, seek assessment when appropriate, stay active, and take steps to prevent falls.
🦴 Strengthen: If you have osteoporosis or have experienced a fracture, timely diagnosis, appropriate treatment, good nutrition, regular exercise, falls prevention, and ongoing support can help reduce the risk of future fractures.
It’s never too early—or too late—to take action. By building, protecting, and strengthening your bones throughout life, you can help preserve mobility, independence, and quality of life for years to come.
What step will you take today for your bone health?
