First I should tell you that I was brought to the topic of Osteoporosis with natural concern – just like you. My age, body type, menopausal status, family and medical history all pointed to high risk for Osteoporosis. As you will learn in this series, multiple risk factors must be taken in to consideration in terms of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of Osteoporosis. But before we go any further...

This is the first of a three part series on Osteoporosis.

I hope that you will take the time to read each segment in order to broaden your perspective on Osteoporosis and the impact it may have on you and your family.
