Health experts advise women in the pre-menopausal stage, typically occurring in their 40s, to observe proper diet and take vitamins and supplements. The reason being that women are at greater risk to lose bone mass once they reach menopause. A recent study also indicates that, apart from the observation of diet, regular exercise can help mitigate bone loss and other degenerative bone diseases. Participants in the study, which included premenopausal and menopausal women, were asked to engage in a physical training course for 8 weeks. Upon completion, the women were found to have lower levels of the bone-inhibitor sclerostin and higher levels of growth factor IGF-1 that helps in bone production. Whether it's by joining a downtown Vancouver health club, engaging in sports or other means, women are advised to be more physically active to fight bone loss and to achieve other benefits that a healthy lifestyle can bring.
