The Dr. Terri Show

55. Breaking the Osteoporosis Myth with Dr. Doug Lucas


Listen Later

In this empowering episode of The Dr. Terri Show, Dr. Terri welcomes orthopedic surgeon turned functional health expert Dr. Doug Lucas, for a myth-busting conversation that redefines everything you thought you knew about bone health. From years in the O.R. to the frontlines of integrative care, Dr. Doug shares his powerful journey from fixing broken bones to preventing them altogether—through root-cause medicine, hormone optimization, and lifestyle transformation.


Together, they explore why osteoporosis isn't a life sentence, how hormone therapy can radically shift bone metabolism, and why bone *quality* matters more than a Dexa scan result. Dr. Doug explains how nutrition, resistance training, impact exercise, sleep, and stress regulation are non-negotiables for anyone wanting to thrive—not just survive—as they age. They also tackle the rise in bone loss among men, the truth behind GLP-1s and muscle loss, and why bisphosphonates may be giving patients false hope.


This isn't a fear-filled conversation—it's a hopeful, science-backed guide to thriving in your 40s, 50s, 70s, and beyond. Plus, hear about Dr. Doug’s new book, *The Osteoporosis Breakthrough*, and his mission to expand cutting-edge bone health care through LifeMD.
