Reliable Bone Health Care

Osteoporosis is a condition in which bones become hollow and brittle, making them vulnerable to fractures under even mild stress. Normally, living bone tissue is continuously replaced by new bone; when this process slows or fails, weakened bone mass develops. In India, this is especially common among elderly women post-menopause. Factors such as calcium and vitamin D3 deficiency often contribute to the problem. Early intervention is key to reducing the risk of fractures.
