Healthy Living

In addition to taking BONIVA as directed by your healthcare provider, you probably know that there are lifestyle changes you can make to help maintain healthy bones, such as adopting a regular exercise program and eating a nutritious diet rich in calcium and
vitamin D.

Due to a decrease in estrogen levels, loss of bone density speeds up in women after menopause. In fact, as women grow older, they may lose between 35 and 50 percent of their bone density. Since nearly one in two women over the age of 50 will experience an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lives, good bone health is essential — both before and after menopause.

Beyond simply "eating healthy" and "working out," there are certain foods and exercises that can particularly help build strong bones. To learn more, click on a link below:

Please consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your diet or beginning an exercise program.
