🚨 Also, please don't tell my wife I said anything bad about her new vibration plate 🙏. I'm not sure if she reads my captions.

👉 Even though vibration plate therapy does have some promise for helping with bowel motility, balance, or even bone density, I would only consider it as a possible adjunct to a healthy lifestyle—not a replacement for anything. 

🦴 While there is a study that showed it can potentially help support bone density (PMID: 36282343), please note that it has to be a certain frequency (30 Hz), which may not be available on more cost-friendly vibration plates. 

🚨 Vibration plates should not replace the basic fundamentals of a healthy lifestyle: resistance training, good sleep, avoiding ultraprocessed foods, social interactions, and limiting alcohol/tobacco.

✅ If you do decide to use one, it's recommended that you start with three times a week for 10 to 15 minutes sessions.  You can find some on Amazon for as low as $59.
