Risk Factors You Can Control; osteoporosis.

Risk Factors You Can Control; osteoporosis.

Smoking, an inactive lifestyle, and a diet low in calcium and vitamin D place you at greater risk for osteoprosis.  Excess drinking is linked to bone loss and a risk of fractures. Corticosteroids, anti-inflammatory drugs used to treat asthma and other conditions, increase your risk of bone loss. Eating disorders (anorexia nervosa or bulimia) can also take a toll on bone health.
