dc.description.abstract Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease characterized by low bone mineral density and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue, with a consequence increase of bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture. It is a major public health tissue affecting a large portion of the population >50 years of age. It leads a huge burden through the increased morbidity and mortality associated with fragility fracture (Bradney et al., 2000). The word osteoporosis‖ was first introduced in France and Germany which literally means "porous bones". It occurs when bones lose an excessive amount of their protein and mineral content, particularly calcium. Over time, bone mass and therefore bone strength, is decreased. As a result, bones become fragile and break easily. Even a sneeze or a sudden movement may be enough to break a bone in someone with severe osteoporosis. en_US
