• Get Stronger Bones: Prevent Fractures, Smarter Screening, Best & Worst Supplements For Osteoporosis - Dr. John Neustadt and Dr. Doug Lucas

  Were you told to "wait and see" after a DEXA bone screening or have you ever felt confused about what your T-score actually means, then this episode is for you? Today I am joined by two of the most respected bone health experts in the world, Dr. John Neustadt and Dr. Doug Lucas, to clear up the most misunderstood parts of bone loss in midlife. We cover How and why women in menopause should get bone density testing and how to actually understand what this means. Does estrogen really protect bones? Why are people having fractures despite good bone density scores without osteoporosis and vice versa. What are alternative screenings and how they compare to DEXA The downsides of bone screening and how to approach your bone health no matter if you have osteoporosis or not What the research supports for improving bone density and what supplements we may need to consider. We talk about the more important form of vitamin K and strontium What we need to know about that scary 30% of people die within a year of a hip fracture stat And so much more Dr. Doug Lucas I already mentioned that Dr. Doug Lucas is a leading expert in osteoporosis and longevity medicine. He really is. He is a double board-certified physician and founder of The OsteoCollective. This is an incredible community he has created where he helps people—especially midlife women—reverse bone loss, optimize hormones, and reclaim their strength and vitality through an evidence-based, root-cause approach. Dr. Doug is in the functional medicine space. And he has a special message for you: osteoporosis is not a life sentence, and conventional medicine isn't your only option. Remember that. Osteoporosis is not a life sentence, and conventional medicine isn't your only option. We've spoken in past episodes about how he left his career as an orthopedic surgeon after became so frustrated with a system that just waited until bones were broken before taking action. Now, he's on a mission to teach people how to take control of their health before disease sets in. He is such an incredible speaker and really delivers clear message that is relatable, and gives science-backed insights that we all can understand and act on.    Dr. John Neustadt John Neustadt, ND, He is the Founder and President of the dietary supplement company Nutritional Biochemistry, Inc.

• Receding Gum Solutions, Root Canal Dangers & The Wrong Toothpaste - Dr. Toni Engram

  Are your teeth starting to give you problems? Maybe they're clicking, chipping, hurting, or suddenly extra sensitive. Or maybe you've heard online that you should never use fluoride or get a root canal, but your dentist says the opposite, and now you're totally confused. Today I'm talking with Dr. Toni Engram, a biological dentist who helps us separate fact from fear when it comes to oral health. We dive into what biological dentistry really is, how it differs from conventional dentistry, and how your mouth can tell you everything about your overall health. We cover: What a biological dentist actually does (and why it matters) How your oral microbiome connects to your gut, hormones, and longevity What happens to your teeth, gums, and jaw during menopause How to care for receding gums and a clicking jaw The controversy around fluoride, root canals, and crowns The safer, more preventive approach to oral health Dr. Toni Engram is a biological dentist, integrative health coach, and owner of Flourish Dental Boutique in Richardson, Texas. After facing her own autoimmune health challenges, she shifted her practice philosophy toward whole-body prevention and safer, more holistic dental treatments. She holds degrees from Texas Christian University and Baylor College of Dentistry, and is a proud member of IAOMT (International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology) and IABDM (International Academy for Biological Dentistry and Medicine).
