Ageing is a natural phenomenon. We develop many health issues as we age. Here are some growing-up issues to watch for:
Osteoporosis treatment guidelines issued

Strengthen your bones and prevent osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a condition of bone characterised by low bone mass and loss of bone tissue that may lead to weak and fragile bone.
Air pollution linked to osteoporosis-related bone fractures
Beyond the risks of cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease and even cancer, living in a highly polluted zone for a significant time could increase the risk of osteoporosis-related bone fracture, especially in older people, according to two new American studies published in the journal The Lancet Planetary Health.
One in three older women suffer from Osteoporosis
Around the world, 1 in 3 women and 1 in 5 men are at risk of an osteoporosis fracture, says the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF).
