25 year old subject to Osteopenia

1:13 pm Health

My grandmother on my mother’s side has Osteoporosis. So does my grandfather on my father’s side. I’ve been told that a family history of Osteoporosis is a red flag for the ones to follow. I know that at the age of 25 I don’t need to be concerned that I, too. have Osteoporosis, but what a doctor told the other day shocked me. At my age I am subject to Osteopenia. That is the first step of developing Osteoporosis. It actually affects people in their 20s to 30s. Preventative Osteopenia Treatment requires me to eat very healthy and exercise more than I do now. Now I exercise for more than the reason to look better in a bikini.
