Bone Health
The Problem
According to the Surgeon General of the United States:
"The aging phenomenon and its potential impact on bone are not unique to the United States. Across the globe,
the number of individuals age 65 and older is expected to increase nearly five-fold between 1990 and 2050, from 323
million to 1.55 billion. This trend alone could result in a 3.7-fold increase in the number of hip fractures
worldwide, from an estimated 1.7 million in 1990 to a projected 6.3 million in 2050 (Cooper et al. 1992b). Even
this figure may prove conservative, as it assumes that the incidence of hip fractures among individuals of a given
age remains constant. If, instead, incidence rates remain constant in Europe and North America (they have
stabilized in these areas recently) but increase by 3 percent annually elsewhere (as is occurring in some parts of
the world), the total worldwide number of hip fractures each year could exceed 21 million by 2050 (Gullberg et al.
1997)."
Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis and Osteopenia are by far the most common causes of the fractures discussed in the previous section
(although other bones can cause fractures as well). In fact, decreased bone density is an important risk factor for
fractures both in postmenopausal women (Stone et al. 2003) and older men (Nguyen et al. 1996). A panel of experts
judged that skeletal fragility might be responsible for 80-95 percent of hip and spine fractures in White women,
depending on age, along with 70-80 percent of distal forearm fractures and 45-60 percent of fractures at other
skeletal sites (Melton et al. 1997). The comparable figures were less for women of other races and for men. While
the risk of fracture is highest in those who have osteoporosis, many more individuals with Osteopenia (low bone
mass) are at increased risk as well. In fact, an analysis of peripheral bone mineral density (BMD) and fractures in
over 200,000 women (The National Osteoporosis Risk Assessment, or NORA, study) suggests that at least half of all
fragility fractures occur in this low bone mass group (Siris et al. 2001)
The Solution
Nikken has produced a breakthrough line of products designed to deal with bone by establishing a relationship
with Dr. Narain Naidu, Ph.D.
OsteoDenx®
OsteoDenx from Nikken is a revolutionary formula to help you maintain strong, healthy bones for life. With age,
we lose bone tissue and our skeletal structure can become dangerously weakened. OsteoDenx can help, in a unique
way. It is not a nutritional supplement or a prescription osteo drug. OsteoDenx is the only product with a patented
system ˜ Syno-portin technology ˜ that supports natural bone tissue growth. It literally helps rebuild bone
density.* For strong bones and joints, preservation of cartilage and maintenance of essential minerals, make
