Bone Builders

Osteoporosis is often called a silent disease — it announces itself not with pain but with a fracture, a stooped posture, a vertebra that has quietly given way. The diagnosis reconfigures the relationship with one's own bones, and the long work of building and protecting density requires changes that affect daily life in unexpected ways. People who have made those changes speak here.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe the experience of osteoporosis: the bone density scan that changed everything, the decision-making around medications such as bisphosphonates, the changes to nutrition and exercise, and the shift in how each writer thought about movement, balance, and risk. Some write in the aftermath of a fracture; others describe the work of prevention. All are candid about what the process required of them.

Who it's for

For those recently diagnosed with osteoporosis or osteopenia, their partners and families, and adult children helping aging parents understand and manage their bone health.
