I don't believe osteoporosis is an inevitable part of getting older, and neither does today’s guest, Dr. Dough Lucas. 

If you're in midlife, on HRT, on a GLP-1, and think jumping and weighted vests are the solution, this one's for you.

Dr. Doug Lucas is an orthopedic surgeon turned functional medicine practitioner who specializes in osteoporosis and bone health. 

We get into what actually drives bone loss, why muscle and bone are so deeply connected, and why metabolic health matters when we're talking about our skeleton. 

Topics Discussed:

→ Why does rapid weight loss cause bone loss?

→ Do GLP-1s cause muscle loss?

→ How does HRT affect bone health?

→ The truth about the data behind weighted vests and jumping

→ How your metabolic health is actually the biggest factor

→ Why muscle, metabolic health, and bone function as one system.
