Is osteoporosis a health care priority in your country?


Osteoporosis advocates speak out

Rita Süssmuth, leading German politician
“As health minister I came in contact with people affected from osteoporosis. It’s not sufficient to listen to them but to do more. We have to make a change, so I urge policy makers to take action on osteoporosis! It’s really important to eat a balanced diet and exercise. Move it or lose it!”

Rita Süssmuth, leading German politician
