Great resource for learning about osteoporosis

What an informative article! Lots of information and written in a way the average person can understand. I'm thankful for the link, and for this osteoporosis site in general.

@colleenyoung No. It's just some guy who posted it on Reddit. It seems to be a labor of love.

If you mean OsteoCoach in Owings Mills, you can book online. No need to wait for a callback. Here’s the link:

Ray, the owner, does the scan and interprets the results. I’ve gone a few times now. Well worth it.

So this guy did not make it a book? I would definitely buy it and a great reference.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I took the time to read through the information, and I found it very interesting and well organized.

A lot of what he explains is consistent with what I’ve been learning through my own research about osteoporosis, bone health, and the factors that affect our bones as we age. I found myself agreeing with many of the points and appreciating how he connected the different pieces rather than looking at osteoporosis as simply a matter of bone density.

I especially appreciate that he took years of personal experience and research and organized it into something that other people can use as a starting point. There is so much information available that it can be overwhelming, so having someone put it together in a logical way is very helpful.

Thank you again for sharing it with the group. I think resources like this can encourage all of us to learn more and become more informed about our own bone health. ❤️

Thank you to @njx58 for posting the home health guide. I read it (long!) and it contains excellent and helpful information. I’ve had osteopenia for over 27 years and have been doing everything I should to maintain healthy bones - eating right, exercising, taking supplements. After my last DXA scan my PCP has called me in to discuss treatment. I don’t like taking medication but at least I now feel well armed to have a discussion with her.

@frog100 You can buy him or her a 'coffee'. But even if you do, you can't find his of her name.

It's a great website with clear and well-researched information. I asked Claude AI to comment on it and Claude was very positive on the contents.
