Osteopenia & Bone Stress Injuries in Pre- and Post- Menopausal Women with Dr. John Neustadt
In this episode of the Functional Fueling® Podcast, Lauren sits down with John Neustadt to discuss the often-overlooked factors driving osteopenia, osteoporosis, and bone stress injuries in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Together, they explore the complex relationship between hormones, thyroid function, gut health, inflammation, stress, sleep, and bone remodeling, as well as the limitations of DEXA scans for assessing true fracture risk.
You'll also learn how common medications may contribute to bone loss over time, the key macro- and micronutrients required for optimal bone density, and practical strategies to support long-term skeletal health and injury prevention.
Whether you're an active woman concerned about bone health, have breastfed for an extended period, had low estrogen levels or are looking to prevent osteoporosis naturally, this episode provides evidence-based insights to help you build stronger bones at every stage of life.
