About this listen

If you break a hip, you are quite likely to be dead within a year! Start now to take your bone health seriously. Listen to this book to educate yourself about osteoporosis and learn how to strengthen your bones for life.

Osteoporosis is usually preventable. Osteoporosis prevention is far easier than reversal. Loss of bone is a big problem in both hormone-deficient women and men. Eventually, it limits mobility and can be fatal. When the problem gets bad enough, traditional physicians prescribe bisphosphonates like Boniva, which have side effects like scarring in the esophagus and the creation of abnormal, fragile bone. Pharmaceutical drugs used to treat osteoporosis may build bone, but it is of poor quality and results in an increase in bone fractures in the third or fourth year of use.

The loss in hormones at menopause is the reason why 80 percent of the people who develop osteoporosis are women. When a man’s testosterone levels drop, his bone density drops too. If optimal hormones are not achieved, the chances of success in the treatment of osteoporosis are greatly minimized.

In addition to sex-hormone deficiencies, other hormonal imbalances can lead to bone loss too. Discover how to prevent and reverse other age-related diseases associated with bone disease. Over half of seniors have some significant degree of muscle loss (sarcopenia) increasing risk of falls.

Listen to Strong Bones for Life: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding and Managing Osteoporosis. Get valuable tips on testing, fall prevention strategies, how to manage daily life with osteoporosis, cope with pain and fractures, deal with emotions, and find support networks and other resources.

Empower yourself to be proactive in preventing and managing osteoporosis in order to maintain bone health and reduce the risk of fractures.
