Osteoporosis Knowledge, Calcium Intake, and Weight-Bearing Physical Activity in Three Age Groups of Women.
Terrio, Kate; Auld, Garry W.
Journal of Community Health, v27 n5 p307-320 Oct 2002
Determined the extent and integration of osteoporosis knowledge in three age groups of women, comparing knowledge to calcium intake and weight bearing physical activity (WBPA). Overall calcium intake was relatively high. There were no differences in knowledge, calcium intake, or WBPA by age, nor did knowledge predict calcium intake and WBPA. None of the women demonstrated substantial knowledge levels. Postmenopausal women knew more about hormone replacement therapy and hormones. (SM)
