Osteoporosis is a disease that mostly effects woman but can also effect men, the older you get the more at risk you are. Osteoporosis effects your bone density, your body uses tiny pieces of your bone to keep your body alive and when you’re younger it’s very good at growing and replenishing that bone, but over time as you age your body becomes unable to replace bone as quickly as you lose it.
