Osteoporosis is a disease that weakens the bones. Weakened bones are more likely to fracture (break). Osteoporosis can affect anyone. But those most at risk are postmenopausal people who were assigned female at birth.
The body is always making and losing (resorbing) bone. This process is called remodeling. Bone-making cells form new bone using calcium and other minerals. These minerals come from the food you eat.
Osteoporosis is a disease that causes weak, thinning bones. This leaves the bones at greater risk of breaking. The bones most often affected are the hips, spine, and wrists.
