This week I joined Hayley Foster to unpack a topic I’m seeing daily in the office: osteopenia and osteoporosis. We clarify what your DEXA scores actually mean, why bone loss accelerates in midlife, and the practical steps to prevent, slow, and even rebuild bone, without panic or gimmicks.
We cover:
How hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone) impact bone remodeling
The core supplement stack: vitamin D, calcium, and properly dosed K2
Protein targets, strength + balance training you can start now
Sleep & stress as bone-building tools
Medications that quietly raise fracture risk (SSRIs, PPIs, steroids, benzos, anti-seizure)
When to screen earlier, and which labs to request
Where HRT fits for eligible women
