    BONE HEALTH REVOLUTION: THE 3-MINUTE SOLUTION FOR LIFELONG STRENGTH

    In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Orlena speaks with bone health expert Dr. Tracey Clissold about the "silent epidemic" affecting millions of women and the surprisingly simple solution that takes just minutes a day.

    Did you know we only have until age 30 to build the skeleton that must last us a lifetime? After that, we begin losing bone density—with losses accelerating dramatically during menopause when women can lose up to 20% of their bone mass in just a few years. This hidden decline puts two-thirds of women at risk for life-altering fractures as they age.

    The good news? Dr. Clissold reveals her groundbreaking research showing how specific "bone-jarring" movements performed for just 2-3 minutes daily can increase bone density by 3-5%—effectively reversing years of natural bone loss. And contrary to popular belief, walking and most other exercises don't create enough force to stimulate this bone growth.

    You'll also discover the critical nutritional triad supporting bone health: proper calcium intake (most women only get 70% of what they need), optimal protein consumption for both muscle and bone strength, and the often-overlooked vitamin D connection.

    Whether you're 30 or 60, this conversation offers actionable strategies to strengthen your skeleton and prevent the devastating fractures that can derail healthy aging. Listen now to transform your bone health in just minutes a day!
