Don’t Break a Bone — The One Habit That Protects You as You Age
In this episode of Hormones & Hope, Dr. Chhaya welcomes the incredible Dr. Pam Peeke—physician, scientist, author, and the “doc who walks the talk.” Together, they unpack what truly drives women’s long-term health: mindset, muscle, metabolism, and meaning.
Dr. Peeke shares her “Mind–Mouth–Muscle” framework, explains why strength training becomes essential after 40, and breaks down how bone cells respond to movement. She also reveals why walking isn’t enough, why push-ups matter more than we think, and how sleep, protein, and stress management shape health in every decade.
The conversation also highlights NASA’s vibration research and how it inspired Osteoboost, an FDA-cleared device designed to support women with low bone density through targeted mechanical stimulation.
A must-listen for anyone wanting to understand bone density, metabolic aging, and longevity on a deeper level.
