Low Bone Density
Low bone density, also known as osteopenia, is a condition characterized by decreased bone mass and density, making bones more fragile and susceptible to fractures. It is often considered a precursor to osteoporosis, a more severe bone disease. Addressing low bone density requires a comprehensive approach that includes lifestyle modifications, exercise, and nutritional support. Medical foods can be an integral part of this approach by providing targeted nutrients to support bone health and density.How Medical Foods Can Help

EB-S4
According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, it is estimated that 44 million U.S. adults have low bone density and 10 million have osteoporosis. The ingredients in EB-S4 have been shown to increase bone density, optimize surgical outcomes, and aid bone healing.What causes low bone density?
Low bone density, or osteopenia, results from various factors including aging, hormonal changes, inadequate calcium and vitamin D intake, sedentary lifestyle, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, certain medications, and medical conditions such as hormonal imbalances, thyroid disorders, and gastrointestinal diseases affecting nutrient absorption. Additionally, genetic predisposition and family history play a significant role in bone density. Addressing modifiable risk factors through lifestyle modifications, adequate nutrition, weight-bearing exercises, and medical interventions is crucial in preventing and managing low bone density.
