Age and Bone Mass: Understanding the Relationship and Gender Differences in Bone Density
The image titled "Graph Showing Relationship Between Age and Bone Mass Diagram" illustrates the changes in bone mass across a lifespan, highlighting key trends in both males and females. It shows that bone density peaks around age 30 and declines thereafter, with females experiencing a more rapid loss compared to males. This graph provides valuable insight into the natural aging process of bones and its implications for skeletal health. This article explores the relationship between age and bone mass, the physiological factors influencing bone density, and strategies to maintain bone health as we age.
