The influence of menopausal status and dietary behaviour practices on bone health status among postmenopausal Chinese women in Kota Bharu, Kelantan

Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder characterized by low bone mass and micro architectural deterioration of bone tissue, which consequently increase in bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture especially in postmenopausal who is considered as higher risk of osteoporosis due to excessive loss...
