One in three women and one in 12 men over the age of 50 in the UK already suffer from osteoporosis, and every three minutes someone has a fracture due to osteoporosis. In the USA it is predicted that one in two women and one in eight men over 50 will have an osteoporosis-related fracture at some time in their lives. In Canada, more women die each year as a result of osteoporosis fractures than from breast and ovarian cancer combined. This book aims to help you learn how to prevent osteoporosis, improve your chances of increasing your bone strength and health if you suffer from osteoporosis and discover how to get the best out of orthodox medicine. The book also offers information about the fundamental importance of diet and lifestyle along with providing recipes for a new dietary regime. Above all, it aims to help you discover a diet and lifestyle that should empower you to prevent and combat the disease.
