It is a peculiarity of Ayurveda that we can make early diagnosis of osteoporosis and, this also means that we can gain maximum time to prevent further pathology.

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF OSTEOPOROSIS

Modern View: Bone loss occurs without symptoms.

  • First sign may be a fracture due to weakened bones

Ayurvedic View: It is a peculiarity of Ayurveda that we can make early diagnosis and, this also means that we can gain maximum time to prevent further pathology.
