Episode 6: Balance as the Key to a Healthy Life

Barbara Hannah Grufferman, Bone Health Ambassador and Trustee for the National Osteoporosis Foundation, learned the hard way that low bone density can lead to a life-changing experience. She fell and broke her arm at the age of 50, setting her on a course of discovery about osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

In this conversation with personal trainer and movement artist Carol Clements, Barbara discusses the realities of osteoporosis and how the adoption of active, preventive measures against falling can reduce the risk of breaking a bone. The key, according to Carol Clements, is balance.
