Is your daily coffee helping you… or quietly harming your bones? And could tea actually strengthen them?

In this episode of the NatureCity Podcast, host and supplement expert Carl Pradelli revisits a popular question from a past episode: Is caffeine bad for bone health? This time, he breaks down new research published in late 2025 that followed nearly 10,000 women over age 65 for a decade — revealing some surprising differences between coffee and tea when it comes to bone mineral density.

Carl explains why moderate coffee intake is usually safe, when it can become a concern (especially for postmenopausal women), and why tea — particularly green and white tea — may actually support stronger bones thanks to powerful polyphenols. He also shares practical, realistic strategies for protecting bone health without giving up your morning cup of coffee.

Finally, Carl explains why bone health requires far more than calcium alone, and how NatureCity’s Tru Osteo® and Tru Osteo Plus® formulas are designed to support not just slowing bone loss — but potentially improving bone density over time.

If you care about aging well, staying active, and keeping your bones strong for the long haul, this episode is a must-listen.
