Contact: 604.681.8380, fax 604.681.7003, info@enerchanges.com, www.enerchanges.com
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone density and deterioration of bone tissue leading to increased bone fragility and risk of fracture (broken bones). Current statistics show that 1.4 million Canadians suffer from osteoporosis. In fact, one in four women over the age of 50 has osteoporosis. At least one in eight men over 50 also has the disease. Osteoporosis is often known as "the silent thief" because bone loss occurs without symptoms. However, the disease can strike at any age. Osteoporosis is sometimes confused with osteoarthritis, because the names are similar. Osteoporosis is a bone disease; osteoarthritis is a disease of the joints and surrounding tissue.
During this fact-filled workshop, Dr. Yhap will provide you with insight into the causes of osteoporosis, the risk factors involved and the latest information on available treatment alternatives. Nutritionist, Katie McCann will address the dietary factors that affect your bone health, how the various systems of the body interact to create optimum and vibrant health and will review the basics of digestions and absorption.
Seating is limited.
Please call EnerChanges™ at (604) 681-8380 to reserve your seat.
