With the aging of the population, China has become the country with the largest number of osteoporosis patients in the world. The early symptoms of osteoporosis are hidden and easy to be ignored. The gradual loss of bone leads to the increase of bone fragility and fracture. There is one osteoporotic fracture every three seconds in the world.
