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

health care team before making medical decisions and changes to your diet and lifestyle. With that

being said, let's get on with the show. You know, we have 37 trillion cells in the human body,

which is a mind-blowing stat. Virtually all of those cells have the same life cycle, right?

They're born, they grow, they mature, they replicate, they acquire some damage,

and eventually they stop replicating and they go through apoptosis, right?

That's the life cycle for most cells.

But brain cells or neurons, they don't. They don't turn

over. You have one set of brain cells, and when they die, they die. And so there's no turnover

in the brain. I mean, there's some science right now that's emerging that shows that maybe we have

some potential for turning over neurons in the brain through

using medicinal mushrooms or different therapies.
