I am not a doctor but Osteoporosis is a degeneration of bones.
Osteoporosis is a disease of bone in which the bone mineral density (BMD) is reduced, bone microarchitecture is disrupted, and the amount and variety of non-collagenous proteins in bone is altered. Osteoporotic bones are more at risk of fracture. Osteoporosis is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) in women as a bone mineral density 2.5 standard deviations below peak bone mass (20-year-old sex-matched healthy person average) as measured by DXA; the term "established osteoporosis" includes the presence of a fragility fracture. While treatment modalities are becoming available (such as the bisphosphonates), prevention is still considered the most important way to reduce fracture. Due to its hormonal component, more women, particularly after menopause, suffer from osteoporosis than men. In addition it may be caused by various hormonal conditions, smoking and medications (specifically glucocorticoids) as well as many chronic diseases.
Lifestyle
Lifestyle prevention of osteoporosis is in many aspects inversions from potentially modifiable risk factors.
Exercise - Achieving a higher peak bone mass through exercise and proper nutrition during adolescence is important for the prevention of osteoporosis. Exercise and nutrition throughout the rest of the life delays bone degeneration.
Nutrition - A proper nutrition is a diet sufficient in calcium and vitamin D. Patients at risk for osteoporosis (e.g. steroid use) are generally treated with vitamin D and calcium supplements. In renal disease, more active forms of Vitamin D such as paracalcitol or (1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol or calcitriol which is the main biologically active form of vitamin D) is used, as the kidney cannot adequately generate calcitriol from calcidiol (25-hydroxycholecalciferol) which is the storage form of vitamin D.
Quiting tobacco smoking - Tobacco smoking inhibits the activity of osteoblasts.
Drinking moderately of alcohol
Avoiding heavy metals
Drink Lots of Milk (Extra Calcium Intake
It's a disease we don't have a cure for. If you have not gone through puberty yet, calcium and vitamin D can help prevent it. If you are showing signs of it, phosphorus has a small effect in slowing it down, so does weight training.
Eat plenty of vegetables, intake calcium plus multi vitamin and vitamin D
