Today on the Eat to Live podcast. Because Americans use drugs for everything. Instead of getting rid of salt out of the diet and eating a healthy diet, they take blood pressure medications. The reality is that your muscles and bones strengthen and weaken together. And if you have osteoporosis, then you have weak muscles. And people fall,

not just because of weakness of the bone. They fall because the muscles are weak.

Hey, you to live listener. I am here with my dad, medical doctor, a nutritional science guru, Dr. Furman.

Thank you, Jen. And I'm here with my daughter, Jenna. And we are here for the Eat to Live podcast.

That's right. And why I'm calling you a nutrition guru is because you were talking to me about a lot of studies on our topic today, which is osteoporosis. And I love when you get

all doctor on us. So I feel like we talked about medications we were prepping for this episode.

We were talking about lifestyle, exercises that you can do to reduce osteoporosis and even diet that

helps. So I'm excited to get into it.

Great. And of course, the message here, like everything else, is that people have to be

they get older. That's our message in general, particularly with regard to osteoporosis and hip fractures. And then we also have a special guest coming in to join us towards the end of the program, correct? Sure. Yeah, we have a special guest here with us, so we'll wait until then to surprise everyone. Okay. Okay, so osteoporosis, I it. We get a ton of questions on it. And you actually

became a guru on this. You made your own exercise program. And you know a lot about osteoporosis.

What propelled you to do that? Don't you think I know a lot about every kind of health issue?

I'm honestly starting to say yes. How do you know so much about everything? I don't even understand it.

It takes work. I feel like study, work, read, prep. Right. This is where I'm very impressed

on all of the research that you do on how you know the name of every single study. And you're even,

you even mentioned when we were talking about this episode, a study that you want to even correct.

Oh, yeah, correct. Yeah.

So I'm just really impressed by the amount of research you do to make your diet and recommendations.

Oh, thanks, you, Jen. So you decided that osteoporosis was a big problem through research or because

you had patients that suffered from it? Well, everybody learns in health care in medical school that osteoproces is a major

cause of both morbidity and mortality.
