Help Fight Osteoporosis

Know My Bones

CLICK HERE to watch the
Know My Bones video.

As a member of the Know My Bones Council, the National Osteoporosis Foundation encourages women living with postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) to prioritize their bone health and seek information that will help them fight the disease.

Guided by the belief that the path to optimal bone health can be found through education, six leading health and women's groups joined forces with Amgen in 2009 to create the Know My Bones Council. The Know My Bones Council's mission is to support women in making their bone health a priority in their lives.

For more information about the Know My Bones educational program and to learn more about taking charge of your osteoporosis, please view the video and visit KnowMyBones.com to register for more helpful information.
