Osteoporosis is a bone disease that makes your bones weak and more likely to break. There are several risk factors for osteoporosis that you can control. A diet low in calcium and vitamin D can weaken your bones. Make sure to consume enough dairy products, fish, fruits, and vegetables. Exercise, especially weight-bearing exercises like walking or lifting weights, can help keep your bones strong. Avoid smoking and limit alcohol consumption, as these can also weaken bones. Certain medications and medical conditions can increase your risk, so talk to your doctor about your bone health if you have chronic health issues. There are also factors you cannot control, like age, gender, and family history, but being aware of these can help you manage your bone health more effectively.
