Today is 🌍 World Osteoporosis Day | October 20, 2025 Theme: “It’s Unacceptable! Say No to Fragile Bones.”🦴 Osteoporosis silently weakens bones until a fracture occurs — but prevention and treatment do work! Yet millions remain undiagnosed or untreated. That’s unacceptable. 📊Over 500 million people live with osteoporosis worldwide.1 in 3 women & 1 in 5 men (50 +) will face an osteoporosis-related fracture.In India, 61 million people are affected — mostly women. ⚠️ A fragility fracture isn't “just bad luck” — it’s a red flag for bone fragility. After a hip fracture, mortality within a year can reach 20–24%, and many lose independence. 💪 Let’s Act: #ProtectYourBones | #SayNoToFragileBones ✅ Eat calcium-rich foods ✅ Get vitamin D & regular exercise ✅ Avoid smoking / excess alcohol ✅ Screen those at risk ✅ Support Fracture Liaison Services for timely care🩵 Strong bones = strong lives.
