What if your bones had Termites?
What If Your Bones Had Termites?
You wouldn’t hear them.
You wouldn’t see them.
But one day —
your floor collapses.
That’s what osteoporosis is like.
Even if you’ve never dealt with termites, you know what they do:
They quietly destroy what looks perfectly fine on the outside.
That’s how osteoporosis works in your bones — silently, over time, until something breaks.
The Silent Threat You Don't Hear Much About
• 1 in 2 women and 1 in 4 men will suffer a fracture due to osteoporosis.
• For women, fractures from osteoporosis are more common than breast cancer, stroke and heart disease combined!
• Many who survive never fully recover — they lose mobility, confidence, and independence.
This isn’t rare.
It’s not “just a little bone loss.”
It’s a silent epidemic — and we’re not talking about it enough.
The Good News?
You can catch it early.
You can treat it.
You can prevent life-changing fractures — before they happen.
A simple bone density test (DXA scan) can show you what your body isn’t saying out loud.
Strong women deserve strong bones.
If you're over 50 — or love someone who is —
Ask your doctor about getting screened for osteoporosis.
Don’t wait for a break to wake up to the risk.
