Please note: This competition is now closed. A big thank you to everyone who participated. And congratulations to our winners ââ Patricia, Carin, and Betty!
October 20th is World Osteoporosis Day. Traditionally, itâs a day where weâre reminded of the scary statistics and bleak consequences of osteoporosis.
But who needs any more depressing news right now?! And besides, poor bone health is not a foregone conclusion. With that in mind, we thought a bit of fun was in order, along with some positivityâŚ
So, we hosted a scavenger hunt ââ one that provides a positive message about increasing bone density along with actionable tips you can implement today!
How the World Osteoporosis Day Scavenger Hunt Works
The World Osteoporosis Day Scavenger Hunt competition is now over. But you can still complete the scavenger hunt!
Our hope is that you’ll have some fun âhuntingâ around the AlgaeCal website. And that youâll take the time to read the pages involved in the scavenger hunt. And even better⌠share the information you read with your loved ones.
Because the core message of World Osteoporosis Day is to raise awareness about bone health and what you can do to have strong, healthy bones for life. And that’s a message we try to promote every day of the year.
Here’s how it works:
