Consequently, combining the two measures appears to be the most practical approach to preserving sound skeletal mass into old age. In one report on the subject, G. Donald Whedon, MD, senior science advisor to the National Institute of Arthritis, Diabetes, and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, told of several studies showing that
