Based securely on medical research and the opinions of
international experts this documentary challenges:

- the way the osteoporosis statistics are gathered
- the way both osteopenia and osteoporosis have been
diagnosed and
- the effectiveness of the drugs offered to well women
as a ‘preventative measure’

It also explains how our bones actually renew
themselves, explores possible side effects that can
accompany some of the treatments and looks at simple
and effective strategies women can adopt to keep their
bones healthy and strong.

‘The Osteoporosis Story’ also examines the major
question posed by this investigation:

How is it that our ‘evidence based’ medical
system isn't always based on the evidence?

The answers are both surprising and alarming.
