SPEAKER Anar Dossa\, BScPharm\, RPh from UBC TOPIC DESCRIPTION: How dense are your bones? Do you get enough Calcium and Vitamin D? One out of four women over the age of fifty is at risk of bone fractures due to osteoporosis (thinning of the bones). Osteoporosis is sometimes called “the silent thief” because bone loss occurs without symptoms. Your risk of osteoporosis is affected by lifestyle and nutrition\, especially exercise and adequate Calcium and Vitamin D intake. How much is enough? More and more women are taking supplements after recent research linked normal doses of Vitamin D with a longer life. A clinical pharmacist from Medication Info. UBC presents the latest information on osteoporosis\, calcium and vitamin D in an interactive session with plenty of time for questions. LOCATION: 411 Dunsmuir Street\, Vancouver\, BC.
