#329 Bones, Hormones, and Happiness: Rethinking Osteoporosis with Margie Bissinger
Welcome to How Humans Heal. In this episode, I'm talking with my friend Margie Bissinger, a Physical Therapist and Integrative Health Coach who has spent over 35 years helping women prevent and manage osteopenia and osteoporosis. Bone loss is especially important to think about during peri-menopause and menopause, because the greatest loss in bone density happens within 2 years of menopause (or cessation of your menstrual cycle). More than 50% of women will experience an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lifetime. Wow! There is SO much we can do to help prevent bone loss – and it’s not just about eating yogurt or lifting weights. There is research we can refer to and experts, like Margie, who’ve been creating content to help women. Margie hosts the Happy Bones Happy Life podcast and co-founded the Bone Health Academy, where she trains practitioners in her approach to bone health. Margie started helping women with osteoporosis when a group of endocrinologists asked her to see their patients with osteoporosis. She was upset to see well-intentioned women being told simply to "exercise," with no real guidance, so they turned to trainers or did whatever they could find, sometimes doing exercises that actually increased their fracture risk. That drove her to get involved on the state and national level, and she wrote one of the first books on exercise and osteoporosis. What Margie has seen over and over is that when people are given knowledge and tools, they CAN turn their bone health around. A scary diagnosis becomes a catalyst: people get stronger, eat better, reduce stress, and life improves. We’re here to help you!
