The most effective way to treat osteoporosis is through prevention
Ensure adequate intake of vitamin D, minerals, and protein. Physical activity is also crucial.
Osteoporosis can indeed affect men. In fact, the current projection indicates that 1 out of every 10 men above 50 years old suffers from either osteoporosis or osteopenia.
Due to the lack of screening for men compared to post-menopausal women, it often goes undetected until they experience a fall and sustain a hip or vertebral fracture.
Being inactive, insufficient dietary intake, and low testosterone levels may lead to reduced bone density in men.
To avert bone-related issues, ensure you consume at least 1000mg of calcium daily, raise your vitamin D levels, and consider adding supplements of vitamin K2 and boron.
