No bones about it! Osteoporosis update
Description
About one in three females are diagnosed with osteoporosis during the course of her lifetime. Somewhat surprisingly, men, chronic dieters, and some athletes are also at risk for this condition. No Bones About It! Osteoporosis Update provides an overview of several of the key osteoporosis-related issues, including the complications that can arise with this diagnosis, preventive treatments, exercise applications, bone physiology, risk factors, and dietary and pharmaceutical supplementation. The DVD is designed as a resource for every health/fitness professional who wants to better understand the underlying aspects of osteoporosis.
