ABSTRACT: Osteoporosis literally means "porous". It is a disease characterized by low bone density or mass (reduced amount of bone tissue) and fragile bones (weakened bone structure) leading to increased susceptibility to fractures, particularly of the hip, spine, and wrist. Today, we could see various commercials advocating for the prevention or probably the eradication of osteoporosis in the country which is affecting most of the elderly people.
