Turns out that more men need to bone up on their bone density.
Some 2 million US men suffer from osteoporosis, a slow-developing “silent disease” that makes bones weak and brittle, according to the National Spine Health Foundation. Another 16 million men have osteopenia, which describes mild osteoporosis or pre-osteoporosis.
Despite its prevalence, a new survey commissioned by the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center found that only 1% of men are concerned about low bone density.
No bones about it — this could be a grave error.
