OSTEOPOROSIS: THE SILENT EPIDEMIC Marilyn Glenville
Osteoporosis is becoming more and more common, yet increasing doubt is being cast on conventional treatments. Fortunately, this long-term debilitating disease is preventable and this book will give you all the advice you need about how to prevent and treat osteoporosis and, more importantly, how to find out if you have it in the first place. Marilyn Glenville begins by explaining what osteoporosis is and helps us to understand bone metabolism. She looks at why some women (and men) are more at risk than others, and discusses how the tests that are used for osteoporosis work. Drawing on the latest research and clinical practice, Marilyn offers what she considers to be an optimum treatment approach. She looks at the benefits and side effects of conventional drugs, and discusses the importance of nutrition and exercise. She summarises all this in a clear plan of action that will empower you to help yourself.
