UNBELIEVABLE: At what age bones start degenerating tips to keep bones healthy - Caught on Camera

Bones are the fundamental support system of the body, providing structure, protecting vital organs, and enabling movement. They serve as a reservoir for essential minerals like calcium and phosphorus, which are crucial for various bodily functions. Bones house bone marrow, where red and white blood cells are produced, playing a key role in blood health.

Bone degeneration is a major health crisisBone degeneration occurs naturally with age due to a decrease in bone density and strength. As we grow older, the balance between bone formation and resorption shifts, leading to a net loss in bone mass. This process, known as osteoporosis, results from a reduction in bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) and an increase in bone-resorbing cells (osteoclasts), making bones more porous and prone to fractures.
