Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is often framed as an unavoidable part of ageing, especially for women after menopause. In reality, bone is living tissue that responds to mechanical loading, hormones, protein, minerals, vitamin D, vitamin K, inflammation, gut health, and medication history. This chapter explains how bone is built, lost, measured, and protected across adulthood.
