Over the years, it has been demonstrated that the ability to maintain body core temperature in older adults declines with age. Temperature is a vital physical factor for cell growth and a downshift in core body temperature (<37 °C) might have a direct affect on maintaining bone density or repair fractures. Disruption in any of the cellular processes involved in bone remodelling leads to a net loss of bone mineral density and bone loss. Therefore our study looked...
