FACT - HALF OF ALL WOMEN OVER 50 ALREADY HAVE LOW BONE DENSITY.
In 2005, the Surgeon General announced that 50% of all Americans over age 50 are at risk for dangerous and debilitating bone fractures caused by osteoporosis and poor bone health. At this time, over 10 million Americans have been diagnosed with osteoporosis and another 34 million are at risk of developing it.

AT WHAT AGE DOES BONE LOSS BEGIN?
The loss of bone density begins at around age 35, and this speeds up after menopause. By the age of 50, a woman has a 50% chance of experiencing a low bone density-related fracture! If you've ever known of an elderly woman who's "tripped or fallen down" and as a result broken a hip, it's can be likely that the bone fractured first - then she fell down, causing even greater damage. This is especially dangerous when healing, as blot clots can dislodge and cause a stroke or heart attack. Men are at risk, too, with 50% of men over 50 having below normal bone density and 6% having osteoporosis.

I TAKE CALCIUM, ISN'T THAT ENOUGH?
No. Americans have the highest calcium intake in the world, but the highest rate of osteoporosis.

QUESTIONS ABOUT BONE DENSITY?
Have your physician order a simple bone density test.

RECENT STUDY
According to a recent study treating patients with bone loss with a mineral called Strontium, participants were able to increase bone density in ONE year and REDUCE FRACTURES by 44% in two years! With continued therapy with Strontium, you can actually re-build bone mass.

WHAT'S STRONTIUM?
Strontium is a mineral that's similar to Calcium and Magnesium and is concentrated in human teeth. Strontium can increase the absorbtion of Calcium into bones and teeth, making them thicker and stronger. It's been shown to be just as effective as prescription medications for osteoporosis, but without the side effects or toxicity.
