More people are fracturing more bones more often
1991
Population-based fracture rates are on the increase because of the growing number of aged people in the population.

Inactivity, decreased nutrient intakes (including minerals), and the use of prescription and nonprescription drugs have been blamed for the secular rise in fracture rates.
