So if that\u2019s what your doctor is measuring, what\u2019s causing the rest? Osteoporosis is more complex than most of us realize. In this episode, I sit down with bone health expert Dr. John Neustadt, author of Fracture Proof Your Bones, to unpack what the typical doctor\u2019s visit often misses. We discuss: \u2022 When women really start losing bone \u2022 Why 95% of fractures happen after a fall \u2022 How antidepressants and acid blockers may increase fracture risk \u2022 The Mediterranean diet and its link to lower hip fracture rates \u2022 Whether bone loss can actually be reversed \u2022 The benefits and risks of medications like Fosamax, Prolia, and Zometa \u2022 The critical questions to ask before starting treatment If you\u2019re in midlife \u2014 or approaching menopause \u2014 this is information you need now, not later. Osteoporosis is serious. But it\u2019s not an emergency. You have time to educate yourself and make smart, informed decisions. Listen now and take control of your bone health.
