Bone mineral density and associated factors.
Manjula Uppal
Abstract :
Low bone mineral density, a cause of osteoporosis and fractures due to it is an alarming feature prevailing in the society and may take up the form of a bigger problem with increasing age expectancy, sedentary lifestyle and exposure to fast food industry which supplies energy dense and mineral–deficient food. This is turning out to be not only a biological health problem but has its social ramifications as well as economic costs and consequences. Making youngsters aware of the situation and providing them guidance for a healthy and physically active lifestyle could help to curb down the incidence of osteopenia, a ground reality for the age–related bone ittleness and vulnerability to bone fracture.
