With a focus on prevention, the center emphasizes lifestyle changes like maintaining adequate calcium and vitamin D levels, consuming bone-healthy foods, and engaging in weight-bearing exercises. Avoiding smoking, limiting alcohol intake, and knowing personal risk factors are also key in bone health management.
