Bone Health & Osteoporosis PART 1 - Crossroads of Health Radio

This week Rick and Melody start a two part conversation focusing on Bone Health as well as Osteoporosis. Osteoporosis means “porous bone.” Viewed under a microscope, healthy bone looks like a honeycomb. When osteoporosis occurs, the holes and spaces in the honeycomb are much larger than in healthy bone.

Osteoporotic bones have lost density or mass and contain abnormal tissue structure.

As bones become less dense, they weaken and are more likely to break. If you’re 50 or older and have broken a bone, ask your doctor or healthcare provider about a bone density test. Bone is living, growing tissue that changes throughout the lifespan.

Crossroads of Health focuses on a wide variety of topics including Heart Health, Joint Health,

Adrenal Health, Thyroid function, Men & Women’s Health, and so much more. Rick and Melody have a true passion for natural health and science based supplements. Every Saturday Rick and Melody will cover different health topics with a highlight on quality science based supplements. Above all Rick and Melody hope to arm you with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision on how to better your lifestyle.
