"Although adults who lose weight may also lose some bone mass, obese adolescents seem to keep gaining bone density as they shed pounds, a study suggests.Of course, it can only work if you grease the palms of the sick care system.
The findings, reported in the medical journal Obesity, offer some reassurance that obese children's weight loss may not come at the expense of their bone health."
"'Our findings suggest that successful, medically supervised obesity treatment in adolescents does not cause major problem for bone health,' said lead researcher Dr. Nicolas Stettler of The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia."Otherwise the bones will snap like kindling.
Shut up.
