DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis first-ever Surgeon General's Report on bone health and osteoporosis illustrates the large burden that bone disease places on our Nation and its citizens. Like other chronic diseases that disproportionately affect the elderly, the prevalence of bone disease and fractures is projected to increase markedly as the population ages. If these predictions come true, bone disease and fractures will have a tremendous negative impact on the future well-being of Americans. But as this report makes clear, they need not come true: by working together we can change the picture of aging in America. Osteoporosis, fractures, and other chronic diseases no longer should be thought of as an inevitable part of growing old. By focusing on prevention and lifestyle changes, including physical activity and nutrition, as well as early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, Americans can avoid much of the damaging impact of bone disease and other chronic diseases. This Surgeon General's Report brings together for the first time the scientific evidence related to the prevention, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of bone disease. More importantly, it provides a framework for moving forward. The report will be another effective tool in educating Americans about how they can promote bone health throughout their lives. This first-ever Surgeon General's Report on bone health and osteoporosis provides much needed information on bone health, an often overlooked aspect of physical health. This report follows in the tradition of previous Surgeon Generals' reports by identifying the relevant scientific data, rigorously evaluating and summarizing the evidence, and determining conclusions.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOsteoporosis is very common, affecting approximately one in three women and one in ten men over the age of 50. Although there is no cure, lifestyle modification and drug therapy can slow or stop the progress of osteoporosis, and so there is a real need for up-to-date, appropriate information to help the primary care practitioner diagnose and manage the condition effectively, and to address patients' queries and concerns. This book, written in the popular Q and A format of the Your Questions Answered series by a renowned osteoporosis specialist, will provide the information needed by GPs and other practitioners to be able to understand and treat patients with osteoporosis. Answers are presented in a succinct, accessible style, with emphasis on evidence-based, up-to-date knowledge. Popular question and answer format Covers both commonplace and rarer issues Includes useful information on professional societies, journals, websites and patient information (patient support organisations and charities, websites, other patient-focused resources).
