The thinning fragile bones of osteoporosis are a nightmare for women in their later years, threatening disablement, increased risk of fractures and hip replacement, or even early death. The suggested treatments of calcium and oestrogen are uncertain and controversial. This work seeks to dispel the myths and present a comprehensive programme for building both stronger bones and general bodily health, with risk assessment questionnaire to determine individual needs.
