PODCAST EPISODE
The Shocking Results of my Bone Mineral Density Scan!
PODCAST SUMMARY
Did you know that a simple Bone Mineral Density scan (BMD) could reveal more about your health than you ever imagined? Join me on a personal journey as I uncover my surprising diagnosis of osteopenia, despite maintaining a healthy diet and active lifestyle. We’ll explore the importance of early detection and why women in their late forties and beyond should seriously consider getting a BMD scan to monitor their bone health.
We’ll dive into the often-overlooked impact of certain medications on bone density. From diuretics to corticosteroids, many common medications can impair calcium absorption, increasing the risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis. Through real-life examples and proactive management strategies, such as weight-bearing exercises, resistance training, and adequate vitamin D levels, I share my approach to minimising these risks and optimising strong bones for the future.
Boost your nutritional know-how with an exploration of calcium-rich foods that support bone health. Learn about the power of seeds, nuts, dairy, fish, legumes, and leafy greens, and how to incorporate these foods into your diet effectively. Whether it’s the omega-3 fatty acids in chia seeds or the probiotic benefits of yogurt, discover the simple dietary changes that can make a big difference.
