Degenerative Bone DiseaseOne of Many Preventable Degenerative DiseasesDegenerative bone disease – Osteoporosis – is a very common disorder and a fall with an osteoporotic hip can leave you bedridden; and a plus is the 20-30% death rate within a year from complications. But it is only one of many, many degenerative diseases. If Osteoporosis is not your cup of tea, have you thought about macular degenerative eye disease – macular degeneration? Degenerative eye disease is not fun. Or would you like to die prematurely from cancer after months or years of struggle and suffering? How about cardiovascular or heart disease? Maybe you’d prefer a debilitating stroke or Alzheimer’s and spending the final years of your life as a vegetable. Arthritis is another choice if you go for the pain and suffering. Or you can treat yourself to enough treats that you end up treating yourself to Type 2 Diabetes and all of its terrible complications. Do you prefer degenerative back disease? That certainly does not exhaust the list of over 50 preventable degenerative diseases. That’s right preventable because Lifestyle, Education, Activity and Nutrition (LEAN) can help you prevent these diseases.
