Actresses Sally Field, Gwyneth Paltrow and Joan Rivers all famously suffer from osteoporosis.
While each has their own tricks in managing - or reversing - the brittle bone disease, here's some sage advice from the queen of comedy, Joan Rivers.
Speaking to GotBones, she says:
"I’m a New Yorker, so I walk everywhere. And if there is a choice between stairs and the elevator, I’ll take the stairs.
Weight bearing exercises – I go to the gym three times a week.
And I take dietary supplements.
You know, when I went back six months [after my initial diagnosis] the doctor saw a reversal of the symptoms.
This is one of the things I want to get out: Not only can osteoporosis be slowed down or stopped, it can be reversed.
Now, how many other diseases can be reversed?"
Asked whether the disease ever dampens her sense of humour, she quipped:
"My bones click so much that dolphins try to pick up on me."
