And if they start out at a low bone has. That is that they have a low peak bone and then lose a lot of opponent -- cause they're going to be in trouble. And -- and that's danger in our lives and their answer."

" Doctor -- recommends that every Wednesday to optimize and helped with adequate calcium and vitamin DNT and at night. She encourages patients to consult their doctors. Ends. It. Ask their doctor about the need for a bone density as if a fracture occurs. But he also warns that examining physicians need to be more vigilant in -- I'm not -- I think that we need to make more effort to educate doctors both tours -- and generalists. Tend to look further beyond the actual fracture to make sure that -- both doctors and patients are aware that osteoporosis is extremely prevalent and a very likely diagnosed as in any person who has one of these fractures."
