Having strong bones is something we all know is important but it plays a bigger role in overall health than most people realize. Let's talk about how bone density changes with age, how it connects to blood sugar regulation + what actually works to build and maintain strong bones as we get older. Topics discussed:
- Alarming statistics we should pay attention to
-Peak bone mass and when bone loss typically begins
-Osteoclasts vs. osteoblasts and how bone remodeling works
-The link between type 2 diabetes and increased fracture risk
-How progressive resistance training improves both bone density and A1C
-Walking, cardio, weighted vests and osteogenic loading centers like OsteoStrong
-Nutrition considerations, minerals, calories and supplement recommendations
+ so much more in-between.
