What is the difference between osteopenia, osteoporosis and osteomalacia?

Women's health expert Dr. Risa Kagan, MD, describes osteopenia, osteoporosis, and osteomalacia, which is mineral-poor bone. In osteopenia and osteoporosis, changes in hormones and bone development cause bone weakening and eventually thin, brittle bones.

Wow. This is a very good video. I learned a lot. My sister just got diagnosed with osteopenia and she is a heavy smoker and she vapes too at 75. Does heavy smoking and vaping contribute to bone loss?
