Fractures and falls are a leading cause of older people losing independence, requiring homecare or having to live in a nursing home.  With one in three people aged over 65 and one in two over 75 having had a fall in the past year. On Real Health this week we speak to Geriatrician at Beaumont Hospital, Professor Frances Dockery, on the importance of calcium and protein for older people. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
