Osteoporosis is often called a "silent disease," but there's a lot you can do right now to stay strong and protect your future health. Small daily choices really do add up. Eating calcium-rich foods, getting enough vitamin D, staying active, and keeping up with routine check-ups can all help lower your risk. Your bones support you every day, so give them the care they deserve!

By 2030, more than 70 million Americans will have osteoporosis or low bone mass.
