Decreasing, Breaking? Protect Yourself Against Osteoporosis!
Osteoporosis is a disease that often shows no symptoms for a long time; however, screening and treatment options are available even in the early stages. Rheumatology experts emphasize that with appropriate therapies and lifestyle changes, the quality of life for those affected can be significantly improved. Bones are continuously changing, building up and breaking down, with about 10% of bone mass being renewed each year. In a healthy bone metabolism, this process is balanced, but if breakdown predominates, osteoporosis can develop. Osteoporosis not only causes a decrease in bone mass but also alters the structure of the bones, making them more fragile. In Hungary, it is estimated that many people…
