On episode 716 of the 40+ Fitness
podcast, we’re diving deep into a topic that’s crucial as we age:
bone health and osteoporosis.
Coach Allan is joined by Dr. John Neustadt, a seasoned researcher,
clinician, and author of Fracture-Proof Your Bones: A
Comprehensive Guide to Osteoporosis.
Dr. Neustadt breaks down the science behind why our bones are much
more than just the framework of our bodies—they’re living tissues
connected to everything from our hormone health to our immune
system.
In this conversation, you’ll learn why bone density tests don’t tell the full story, how to truly reduce your fracture risk, and what daily choices can dramatically improve your bone health. Dr. Neustadt explores holistic approaches—highlighting how the right exercise routine and following a Mediterranean-style diet can not only strengthen your bones, but also lower your risk for heart disease, dementia, and cancer.
Whether you’re already concerned about osteoporosis or just want
to future-proof your health, this episode is packed with actionable
advice, insights on the surprising connection between chronic
inflammation and bone loss, and tips on training safely and
consistently as you get older.
