⚠️PODCAST ALERT⚠️

Muscle and Bone: Stronger Together 💪🦴

Lose muscle (sarcopenia) and you lose bone. Why?

Because:

* Muscle loads bone — less muscle = less stimulus = weaker bone
* Muscle and bone 'talk' via hormones (myokines & osteokines)
* Both decline with age, inactivity, low protein, and inflammation
* Sarcopenia → more falls → more fractures
* The deadly duo... Osteosarcopenia

Solutions:

✅ Lift weights and perform high impact activities
✅ Eat enough protein (1.2–1.6 g/kg/d)
✅ Get vitamin D
✅ Stay active

🧠 Your muscle is your bone’s best friend.

I was recently on the Bone Talk Podcast and I'm excited to share the conversation I had with Claire Gill, CEO of the Bone Health and Osteoporosis Foundation (BHOF)! In this episode, we explore the connection between bone health and sarcopenia, a serious condition characterized by the loss of muscle mass and strength beyond what’s expected with normal aging. I invite you to listen at https://www.bonetalk.org or on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!
