    Will This Bone Supplement Help Or Make Things Worse? - Dr. Doug Lucas

    12/22/2025 | 31 mins.

    Are you taking a bone supplement to improve your DEXA bone density score? Did you hear that strontium, a molecule found in some bone supplements, may increase risk of heart attack and blood clotting? I did! And that freaked me out. So, what did I do? Contacted my bone doctor bestie Dr. Doug Lucas to sort this all out. Dr Doug Lucas is a leading osteoporosis and bone health specialist who gives us clarity in this short episode, especially if you're taking AlgaeCal or considering adding strontium to your routine. We cover: ·   If strontium falsely inflates DEXA scores ·   The difference between strontium ranelate and strontium citrate ·   Do they really lower fracture risk ·   What's more important? Bone quality or bone density? ·   Which scans can show bone strength? ·   What happens when we stop strontium ·   What women should actually focus on for fracture prevention   Dr. Doug Lucas is a leading expert in osteoporosis and longevity medicine. As a double board-certified physician and founder of The OsteoCollective, he helps people—especially midlife women—reverse bone loss, optimize hormones, and reclaim strength and vitality through an evidence-based, root-cause approach. His message: osteoporosis is not a life sentence, and conventional medicine isn't your only option. Dr. Doug left his career as an orthopedic surgeon after becoming frustrated with a system that 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. Whether he's speaking on bone health, functional medicine, or aging with intention, Dr. Doug delivers clear, relatable, science-backed insights your audience will remember—and act on.   Contact Dr. Doug Lucas:  Website: https://www.osteocollective.com/media YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dr_DougLucas   Give thanks to our sponsors: Try Vitali skincare. 20% off with code ZORA here - https://vitaliskincare.com Get Primeadine spermidine by Oxford Healthspan. 15% discount with code ZORA ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - http://oxfordhealthspan.com/discount/ZORA Get Mitopure Urolithin A by Timeline. 20% discount with code ZORA at https://timeline.com/zora Try Suji to improve muscle 10% off with code ZORA at TrySuji.com - https://trysuji.com Try OneSkin skincare with code ZORA for 15% off https://oneskin.pxf.io/c/3974954/2885171/31050 Try Troscriptions for 10% off with code ZORA https://troscriptions.com/zora   Join the Hack My Age community on: YouTube: https://youtube.com/@hackmyage Facebook Page: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@⁠Hack My Age⁠     Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@⁠Biohacking Menopause⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠   Biohacking Menopause Private Women's Only Support Group: https://hackmyage.com/biohacking-menopause-membership/ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@⁠HackMyAge⁠    Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HackMyAge.com⁠    For partnership inquiries: https://www.category3.ca/  For transparency: Some episodes of Hack My Age are supported by partners whose products or services may be discussed during the show.
