Episode description

Surprisingly, nine million adults have osteoporosis and 48 million adults have low bone density. Bones are living tissue and just like every other tissue in your body, they require nutrients. Not only do you need nutrients for strong bones, you also need a healthy body that’s set up to absorb those nutrients properly. Did you know that regular use of antacids impairs your body’s ability to absorb calcium? Learn why this is and much more with hosts Darlene Kvist and Kate Crosby as they talk about what you can do to strengthen your bones and decrease your risk for developing osteoporosis.
