Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a serious, potentially crippling disease of the bones, characterized
by low bone mass (density) and weakening of the bone tissue. Both conditions lead
to an increased risk for breaking a bone, especially at the wrist, spine, shoulder and
hip. Osteoporosis can result in disfigurement, reduction or loss of mobility, decreased
independence and lowered self-esteem, which may lead to depression.
Osteoporosis can strike at any age but is most common
among adults. We all begin to lose bone density in our mid30s, and women lose bone density even more quickly as they
approach menopause. Women who are at highest risk are
those who are older of Caucasian or Asian descent and are
past menopause.
•
•
Canned salmon or sardines with bones
Cereals and orange juice that have been fortified
with calcium
You can also take calcium supplements if your daily diet
does not give you enough calcium.
At least one in three women and one in five men will suffer
from an osteoporosis-related fracture during their lifetime.
Over 80% of all fractures in people over 50 are caused by
osteoporosis, and current statistics show that among those
who suffer a hip fracture, 28% of women and 37% of men will
die within the following year.
Vitamin D – helps your body absorb calcium and
improves muscle function. Sunshine is a natural source
of Vitamin D but many people use sunscreens or avoid
the sun altogether due to the risk of skin cancer. The
recommended dose of Vitamin D for those over 50 years of
age is 800 to 1000IU daily.
What are the symptoms of osteoporosis?
There are no apparent symptoms in the early stages of
osteoporosis. The following symptoms appear in the
later stages:
•
Hunched posture
•
Bone fractures that occur easily
•
Loss of height
•
Back pain
Calcium and Vitamin D supplements come in a variety
of forms and strengths, so ask your Pharmacist or doctor
about what’s right for you.
Your physician can have your bone density measured through
a Bone Mineral Density test, which compares the proportion
of mineral in your bones to that of a normal average young
adult. You can also check with your Pharmacist to see if an
osteoporosis screening clinic is available.
What are the treatments for osteoporosis?
Based on your bone density test results, your physician will
determine the best treatment for you according to your risk
of breaking a bone in the next 10 years. Medications can
be used to help slow the progress of osteoporosis. The most
commonly prescribed medications are the bisphosphonates,
which include drugs known as alendronate (Fosamax) and
risedronate (Actonel).
What lifestyle choices can help me avoid or
manage osteoporosis?
Ensure you’re getting enough Calcium and Vitamin D
Calcium – include adequate amounts in your daily diet.
Women between 18 and 50 years of age require 1,000mg
daily. That increases to 1,200mg after 50 years of age.
Natural sources of calcium can be obtained from:
•
Low-fat yogurt and milk
•
Soy products such as tofu
•
Dark green, leafy vegetables
•
Almonds
Stay active
Exercise – helps build strong bones and slows the onset
and development of osteoporosis. Ensure you include both
forms of the following types of exercise in your
regular routine:
•
Strength training – helps strengthen the muscles and
bones in your upper arms and upper spine
•
Weight-bearing exercises – help strengthen the bones
in your legs, hips and lower spine. Examples are
walking, jogging, running, climbing stairs and
skipping rope
Avoid bone-weakening activities
Smoking – Use of tobacco increases bone loss and risk of
bone fractures. Check with your Pharmacist and doctor for
the smoking cessation program that will work best for you.
Alcohol intake – Having more than two alcoholic drinks a
day can slow bone formation.
Falling – As we age, our risk of falling increases due
to factors such as poor balance, reduced vision and
decreased muscle and bone strength. Be aware of your
surroundings and take precautionary measures.
For example:
•
Be especially careful when walking on slippery
surfaces or on area rugs that might slide
•
Ensure rooms are adequately lit for your movements
•
Use handrails where they are available
•
Install grab bars in tubs and showers
