Best booklet on osteoporosis! by Susan Randall (Washington, DC)  5 Stars
December 30, 2008
This booklet pulls together all of the relevant, up to date and scientifically-based information on managing osteoporosis into one concise, easy to read piece. This is a must for all people who have osteoporosis, but it is also very useful for people who are at risk for osteoporosis or who are caring for a relative with osteoporosis. The National Osteoporosis Foundation is a respected and recognized leader in this field and the information can be trusted. As a nurse practitioner, I recommend it to my patients who need this information to be better informed on this subject.
