Tiivistelmä
The purpose of this thesis was to create a self-management guide to help prevent bone loss amongst people who are at risk of developing osteoporosis. This can be accomplished through using evidence based, research proven facts that have been combined into an easy-to-follow information package, making all the information easy to access.
The guide aims to increase the knowledge on how to achieve and maintain good bone health. It also explores the factors leading to an increased risk of osteoporosis. Therefore, it allows for individual learning as well as provides the reader with tools to use for assessing their own risks of developing osteoporosis
