Preventing and Treating Osteoporosis: the Complete Guide by Yochana Khayat Pdf

Preventing and Treating Osteoporosis: The Complete GuideOsteoporosis-the disease of brittle bones and deadly fractures-is a rising pandemic that is silently but successfully increasing the frailty and mortality of women and men alike. At present, as much as every 1 in 2 women and 1 in 5 men over 50 are expected to fracture. Despite its prevalence, current drugs do little alone to meaningfully impact bone health and are fraught with worrisome side effects, including more fractures! Although the condition is genetically influenced, lifestyle and other factors can dramatically affect its manifestation. Osteoporosis is a complex disorder that in turn needs to be addressed holistically. The predisposition for the condition begins as early as in the womb, so the time to develop a health-promoting, preventative lifestyle is NOW.Are you worried and unsure about what diet to follow to best support bone health? Are you unaware of which specific exercises that can actually influence bone strength? Are there other internal or external influences in your life that are affecting your bones that you may be possibly overlooking? Volume II: Organ Function delves into the underappreciated relationship between organ function and bone health. Organs such as the thyroid, the parathyroids, the small intestine, the kidneys, and the liver are just some of the many organs whose function significantly influences the skeleton. Disease states relating to these key organs are discussed in terms of how they can be improved or managed to best support bone health beyond the normal lifestyle and diet recommendations discussed in Volume I. This book is recommended to those not only suffering from conditions relating to organ dysfunction or organ failure, but also to the seemingly healthy who may find that their unmanageable osteoporosis is actually the product of an undiagnosed condition relating to organ dysfunction. Volume II is also recommended to health practitioners who wish to optimize bone health in patients suffering from multiple comorbidities.

Reversing Osteopenia by Harris McIlwain,Debra Fulghum Bruce,Laura McIlwain Cruse,Kimberly Lynn McIlwain Pdf

For the eighteen million American women afflicted with early bone-loss disease, here is the first comprehensive guide to identifying and controlling the condition before it progresses to osteoporosis Osteoporosis, which afflicts more than half of all American women over the age of fifty, is a widespread and all-too-familiar problem. Osteopenia, a milder bone-loss disease that is the forerunner of osteoporosis, is less well known but affects an estimated eighteen million young and middle-aged women-including women in their late teens and early twenties. Since many doctors associate low bone density exclusively with postmenopausal women, millions of women in their childbearing years suffer from undetected bone loss, putting them at risk for debilitating fractures down the road. In Reversing Osteopenia, Dr. Harris H. McIlwain and his two daughters, also rheumatologists, fill the knowledge gap about this easily diagnosable disease, help younger women recognize the risk factors for bone loss, and provide a five-step program for controlling and even preventing bone loss. Their age-specific recommendations for women in their twenties, thirties, forties, and fifties include - exercises that strengthen rather than threaten your bones - new information about foods that build bone density - ways to avoid medicines that rob bones of their strength - recommendations of natural dietary supplements This groundbreaking book offers new hope for young women at risk for osteopenia.

Osteoporosis by Steven R. Cummings,Felicia Cosman,Sophie A. Jamal Pdf

Until recently considered an inevitable part of aging, osteoporosis is typically diagnosed only after a serious complication such as a fracture. It is now possible, however, to diagnose high-risk patients beforehand. Easily performed noninvasive tests estimate bone mass, and patients at risk can be treated with new drugs whose efficacy for fracture reduction has been proven in clinical trials. Osteoporosis: An Evidence-Based Guide to Prevention and Management, the newest volume in the acclaimed ACP Women's Health series, addresses every important facet of this common disease. The latest scientific evidence and the extensive clinical experience of the authors provide essential information on the origins and progress of osteoporosis. Treatment options are thoroughly reviewed.
