Is there anything i can do to reverse osteopenia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Osteopenia : Patients with osteopenia need to make sure they are getting adequate calcium and vitamin d intake (through diet or supplements), stop smoking and increase their weight-bearing exercises. Doing the above will strengthen bones and prevent progression to osteoporosis.
