About this course

This course is about preventing osteoporosis, which is low bone mass and strength, and sarcopenia, which is low muscle mass. While many people have heard about health conditions like heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and cancer, fewer people know about osteoporosis and sarcopenia. But if you want to remain fit and functional as you age, these are conditions you need to understand. In this class, we will discuss evidence-based strategies for prevention, early detection, and management.
