Understanding Bone Health and Its Importance
Bone health is crucial as half of the population will experience a bone fracture at some point in their lives, with up to 10% of these fractures failing to heal properly. This can lead to long-term health issues, emphasizing the need for proactive measures to maintain bone integrity. Contrary to the common belief that bone health is primarily a concern for older adults, the prevalence of issues like osteoporosis and osteopenia is rising among both genders across all age groups. Approximately 40% of the global population experiences suboptimal bone health, marking it as a significant public health concern.
