Why are so many women leaving their osteoporosis appointments feeling discouraged and unheard?

In this solo episode, Debi Robinson explains the differences between conventional medicine and functional medicine when it comes to bone health. She discusses why the traditional healthcare model often focuses on diagnosis and medication and why that approach may feel limiting for women who want to take a more natural approach to osteoporosis.

Debi also shares how functional medicine explores the root causes of bone loss, the importance of lifestyle medicine, and why education and support are essential for creating stronger, fracture-resistant bones.
