Cholesterol, DM & Osteoporosis Plan
(Male & Female)
Cholesterol, DM, HT and Osteoporosis Plan targets individuals who are more prone to hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus and hypertension. By detecting the problems at pre-disease stage, we hope it can help suspend, if not reverse the progression to chronic illnesses.
Attribute to the sedentary lifestyle of busy city dwellers and low dietary consumption in diet, both osteopenia and osteoporosis have become common health problems among local population. Bone mass reaches its peak at the age of 25 years old, and thereafter deteriorates gradually. By detecting bone loss at early stage, and adopt appropriate osteopenia, diet and lifestyle intervention, it is possible to cease the progression into osteoporosis.
Despite the fact that osteoporosis is more commonly found in post-menopause women, study showed that men suffered from the same condition too. As a silent killer, osteoporosis shows no symptoms until fracture occurs, therefore, it is important to detect the problem proactively at an early stage and treat before any complications arise. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan of the spine and proximal femur is the golden standard for diagnosis of osteoporosis. It helps monitor progress of the disease as well as effectiveness of related treatment.
