Scientists turn body fat into bone to heal spinal fractures

Researchers in Osaka have found that stem cells from fat tissue can repair spinal fractures similar to those caused by osteoporosis. By turning these cells into bone-forming clusters and pairing them with a bone-rebuilding material, rats regained stronger, healthier spines. The approach could offer a safe, minimally invasive alternative for treating bone diseases in humans.

"Calcium supplements remain among the most frequent dietary supplements on the market. Estimates suggest more than half of senior citizens take these pills on a regular basis. Constant discussion of the dangers of osteoporosis has focused attention on the need for calcium supplements to augment our inadequate intake of calcium containing foods."—wellnowdoctor

Here's an #osteoporosis #statistics question. If my chance of a hip fracture over the next 10 years is 3.4% (per my FRAX score), but I start walking as much as a recent study has shown to lower hip fracture risk 13+% suggests, would this eliminate my risk of a hip fracture? Or am I not understanding how to combine these two percentages? Thanks for your thoughts!

Some doctors recommend hormone therapy for postmenopausal women to prevent bone loss.
Consult your doctor about possible side effects!

Height Loss During Pregnancy Signals Rare Bone Condition Risk - Karmactive

New research reveals height loss occurs in 50% of pregnancy-associated osteoporosis cases but less than 1% of normal pregnancies. This simple measurement could speed diagnosis of this rare but serious condition.
