Osteoporosis and osteopenia are common health problems affecting a considerable part of the population yet the pharmaceutical solutions to this problem are woefully inadequate.
In this episode, I am joined by Kevin Ellis, commonly known as the bone coach. After an osteoporosis diagnosis in his early 30s, he realized the information gaps for people looking for stronger bones. He became a bone health advocate and founded bonecoach.com.
But before we take a dive deep into what contributes to osteoporosis and how to comprehensively address bone loss naturally, let’s first look at some quick facts from the National Osteoporosis Foundation.
Approximately 10 million Americans have osteoporosis, and another 44 million have low bone density.
One in two women and up to one in four men will break a bone in their lifetime due to osteoporosis.
Six months after a hip fracture, only 15 percent of patients can walk across a room unaided.
Every year, of nearly 300,000 hip fracture patients, one-quarter end up in nursing homes, and half never regain previous function.
From these alarming statistics, we can clearly see that osteoporosis and osteopenia are serious public health threats.
Yet many people don’t even know they have osteoporosis until they break a bone. It is often regarded as a silent disease because there are no symptoms.
Luckily, bone loss is manageable. We can improve bone health and strength at any age, only that the older we get, the less efficient the process becomes. But at the bare minimum, we can prevent further loss.
The first step in a comprehensive natural care plan is a DEXA bone density test to determine the extent of bone loss and whether it has progressed to osteoporosis.
But that’s just the start. Listen in as Kevin takes us through everything about bone health. You’ll appreciate his vast knowledge of the subject.
