Most people don’t give bone health the attention it deserves until it’s too late. But as JJ explains here, being frail, suffering fractures, and getting osteoporosis aren’t inevitable consequences of getting older. In this episode, you’ll learn how to take control of bone health to prevent bone loss, including recognizing the signs and symptoms of osteoporosis. You’ll learn why strong bones are critical for being healthy, why bone loss accelerates after age 50, the risk factors beyond age for bone loss, and why calcium alone isn’t enough for strong bones (and what nutrients you need). JJ also reveals the #1 macronutrient for strong bones that you probably aren’t getting enough of, how weight loss can weaken bone density (and how to prevent that), and the best exercise for maintaining strong bones. Healthy bones are vital for aging powerfully, so don’t miss this information-packed episode to take control of bone health today.
