Welcome to the Bone Coach Show dedicated to helping you understand all things related to diet,

lifestyle, bone health, and how you can live and thrive with low bone density and osteoporosis.

I'm your host, Kevin Ellis, certified health coach, health and wellness speaker, and above all else,

your bone coach.

After being diagnosed with osteoporosis in my early 30s, I transform my health

through diet and lifestyle and now help my clients and community members do the same through my online

coaching practice, bonecoach.com. Look, there are no quick and easy cures for low bone density,

but the choices we make every single day can have a powerful impact on our bones, our health, and our

general well-being. I'll share the research, interview the experts, and help you figure out

how to get the conditions right in your body so you can better your bones through diet and

lifestyle. Short disclaimer, I'm not a medical doctor and this show should not be considered

medical advice. Always consult with your

healthcare team before making medical decisions and changes to your diet and lifestyle. With that being

said, let's get on with the show. In kids, roughly 50% today experienced decay and we kind of

put that down to bacteria being on the surface of the teeth and that you know we're not

brushing it off properly and that there's his plaque building up it's eating away at the minerals

of the teeth but that's not the full picture it doesn't consider what's happening inside the teeth

and there is actually a whole system an osteoimmune system that is basically designed to provide an

immune response to anything that's happening

in the mouth. Now, if you have bacterial imbalances, yes, if it happens long enough, you may get

a response by those certain bacteria, but the key factor is that does your body have the requisite

nutrients to support the osteoimmune system.
