Answer to Question 1

Answer: Most people reach peak bone mass before age 30, at which point, the density of bones begins gradually to decline. The more dense bones are at this peak, the more years will elapse before bone density declines to a point at which the person is at risk for fracture. To build bone mass, young people should engage in regular weight-bearing exercise, including running, jumping rope, tennis, etc., and eat a healthful diet rich in sources of calcium and vitamin D.
