The fracture that happens in your 60s or 70s often starts a decade earlier.Bone loss is the menopause symptom that can change the rest of your life but you can't feel it until it's too late.

In this episode, I explain how losing estrogen throws off the balance between the cells that break down bone and the cells that build it. You can lose up to 20% of your bone density in the years before menopause and never feel it. The good news is that bone is living tissue, and I share the five things I want you to start this week to build it back.

What we cover:

- How menopause and falling estrogen cause silent bone loss.

- Why do you need a DEXA or REMS bone density test at 40, not 65.

- How strength training, impact, and protein build stronger bones.

- How hormone therapy and balance training help prevent osteoporosis and falls.
