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

With that being said, let's get on with the show. But the thing is I'd always worked hard to

lose weight, just never really worked out. So what happened this time is that I started doing

things differently. Instead of subtracting, I started adding foods.

And one of the key things that I added was protein to my diet.

And I really started being more conscious of that.

And what's so incredible is by making this one switch, protein actually naturally increases

our metabolism.

It also digests more slowly so we don't feel hungry for a longer time.

And it helps to also rebuild and build our muscle mass even without working out just by eating protein.
