& Theoretical Orientation: The literature search was carried out using the keywords “bone health, osteoporosis, fractures, lifestyle approaches” among the databases such as PubMed, Medline, and Web of Science. Only human studies were considered for the present work. The theoretical orientation of the study is as follows: ● Global Prevalence of Bone diseases ● Causes of bone diseases ● Gaps in managing bone health ● The holistic approach to improve bone health Findings: The prevalence of bone diseases increases significantly as the population ages. The reasons for bone diseases could be genetics, ageing, sex, ethnicity, lifestyle, medications, as well as infections. Most of the time as the signs of bone health is invisible, the condition remains unrecognized. Until there occurs a fracture or severe pain, the condition is overlooked. The management of bone health revolves around supplementation with calcium. As the causes of bone diseases are multifactorial, there is a need for a holistic approach to improving bone health. Conclusion & Significance: According to studies, a holistic approach comprising of a balanced diet, physical activity, less beverage consumption, no smoking and supplements based on deficiency diseases would enhance bone health. Periodic health checkups will also delay the onset of bone diseases. Recent Publications 1.
