Prevention

Few tips, if incorporated in one’s routine from an early age, could result in preventing
the onset of osteoporosis.

  1. Appropriate diet with adequate calcium intake.
  2. Plenty of exercise & outdoor sports.

High-impact sports & games are particularly suitable in enhancing bone strength
and density. Example of such “high-impact” sports are step aerobics, jogging, tennis,
badminton, squash, volleyball, basketball, football, hockey etc.

Caution: Osteoporosis patients or elderly people with low bone density should stay
away from such “high impact” sports.
