Question

Answer 1

Answer:

b). Osteoporosis

Explanation:

'Osteoporosis' is described as the disease in which the bones become extremely porous and are subject to fracture. Since the bones get weak in this disease, the treatment of this disease primarily aims to regain the strength of the bones and prevent them from being lost completely. This is the reason that weight-lifting exercises are paid special emphasis during the treatment of this disease along with high-intake of calcium and calcium-rich foods for enhancing the bone strength. The focus is also laid on avoiding alcohol and tobacco products as it may cause side-effects like disbalance in the turnover and mass of the bones leading to fracture. Thus, option b is the correct answer.
