“Osteoporosis and low bone mass are currently estimated to be a major public health threat for almost 44 million US women and men aged 50 and older,” according to the International Osteoporosis Foundation.
The group further notes that the 44 million people “with either osteoporosis or low bone mass represent 55% of the people aged 50 and older.” There can be a lot of things to look forward to when it comes to getting older—but joint pain isn’t one of them.
