Osteoporosis

In Germany alone, approximately five million women and possibly 800,000 men suffer from osteoporosis. According to researchers, only about 10 to 15 percent of these individuals are receiving adequate medical attention.

This is largely due to the fact that the warning signs of Osteoporosis show themselves only after massive structural changes in the body’s skeleton have already taken place. This delays the implementation of preventative or therapeutic measures.

With timely diagnosis and treatment, bone loss can be stopped or at least delayed.

It is possible, especially at the early stages of the disease, to improve the condition of the bones through increased physical activity and appropriate nutrition. A diet rich in Vitamin D and calcium (i.e. cheese, yogurt, green vegetables, fruit, calcium rich mineral water, and fish) or calcium and Vitamin D supplements can help maintain bone health.

An early diagnosis of bone loss and an evaluation of the individual’s risk of fracture are essential for successful therapeutic measures.

Ultrasound testing is a proven method for fast, uncomplicated and dependable results. Provide your customers access to risk appraisal and offer your company the opportunity to develop into an active member of the health management team.
