What is osteoporosis? Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become weak and are more likely to fracture or break. It is called a âsilentâ disease because bone loss often occurs without your knowing it. Until about age 30, your body forms enough new bone to replace the bone that is naturally broken down by the body (a process called bone turnover).
yinâ² and yangâ². n. (in Chinese philosophy and religion) two principles, one negative, dark, and feminine (yin), and one positive, bright, and masculine (yang), whose interaction influences the destinies of creatures and things.
Yin and Yang are ancient Chinese philosophical terms, with the Yin Yang Theory being a fundamental part of Feng Shui. It is a Chinese theory on the perspective of continuous change and balance. The theory is that all things in the universe have an opposing force, and though they are opposing, they are very interconnected.
