Help prevent osteoporosis with stronger bones

"Low bone density, which increases the risk of osteoporosis, is rising at an alarming rate across the GCC," says Dr Humeira Badsha, UAE-based rheumatology specialist, and Anlene bone health ambassador. "Most people are neither achieving recommended daily intakes of essential bone nutrients, mainly calcium and vitamin D, nor doing enough physical activities. One of the easiest ways to help build and maintain healthy bones is to have the right diet, rich in calcium, vitamin D, vitamin K, magnesium, zinc and protein." The all-day event at Star Atrium will feature workshops on pilates, walking and Zumba, bone scanning, nutritional consultation and the Anlene Bone Tunnel to help, women in particular, prevent osteoporosis and build stronger bones.
