Osteopenia and Osteoporosis is on the rise in Australia, and this is not an ‘old persons’ disease, this is something that is more easily addressed in our prime. Host Amelia Phillips and 'bone health royalty' Prof. Belinda Beck discuss why NOW is the best time to understand your bones better. They unpack who is at risk of weakened bones, how (and where) to test your bone density, and what the results will tell you. They then deep dive into the top strategies to improving your bone density over 40 (yes you can actually improve it!), from the best exercise programs to nutrition, and supplements.
