Out of sight, out of mind – that’s why we don’t think about our bones.
But ignoring our bone health can lead to devastating consequences including osteopenia and osteoporosis resulting in fractures.
Osteoporosis, often called the “silent disease,” because it often gives no warning until a fracture occurs. If you have a mother or grandmother who suffered from a broken hip or multiple fractures, you know how life-changing and tragic this can be.
If you have low bone density, it is called osteopenia and very low bone density is called osteoporosis.
Maybe you have told yourself, “That won’t happen to me,” or “I’ll deal with it tomorrow.” The truth is, procrastinating about your bone health is like waving a red flag at a charging bull: the clock keeps ticking, and the risk keeps growing.
The Facts Are Very Clear:
From about age 30 we lose 1-2% of our bone density and 1% of our muscle mass EVERY YEAR. Women can lose up to 20% of their bone density in the five to seven years following menopause, which averages to an annual bone loss of approximately 2.8% to 4%.
- According to Healthy Bones Australia nearly half of all women over 50 in Australia have poor bone health(1).
- 1 in 3 women and 1 in 5 men over 50 years old will suffer an osteoporotic fracture in their remaining lifetime.
- 1 in 3 women who break a hip will die within a few years as a direct result.
- Half of those who survive a broken hip will never regain full physical function.
- 652 Australians fall daily resulting in hospitalisation(2).
- In 2023 the cost of osteoporosis and osteopenia in Australia was $4.8 billion and is expected to rise to $8.3 billion by 2033.(1)
These numbers are staggering, but they don’t even account for the personal and social toll which includes loss of independence, pain, mortality, and the emotional burden on families.

- Australian Institute of Health and Welfare – 238,055 fall-related injury hospitalisations in Australia during 2022–23, equating to about 652 per day.
