Laura

'I lead an active life. I have always been conscious of what I eat, and I know how good health has an impact on my life. My work is sometimes hectic and I need to both look and feel good.'

Laura is working as a marketing manager in an international company. She lives downtown and exercises regularly; yoga and running are her passions. Laura reads about osteoporosis in a fitness magazine, and the fact that she had a slight eating disorder and was somewhat underweight as a teenager made her wonder if she was a potential candidate for osteoporosis.

Laura got her bone density measured and as she had feared, her bone density was considerably lower than the average among her age group. She decided to start actively monitoring the type of exercise she does to make sure she would not get osteoporosis later on in her life. The Newtest monitor she bought helps her evaluate the different types of exercise - and it makes her look like a professional athlete. Now she has one less worry on her mind!
