Preventing and Treating Osteoporosis (Webinar Recording)

I’m happy to share the recording of my webinar on osteoporosis, which includes 11 videos and a Q&A.

Nearly one in five adults in the world may have osteoporosis, but the good news is that only about 30 percent of osteoporotic bone fracture risk is genetic. In this two-hour webinar, I covered bone mineral density screening, common over-the-counter drugs (like acid blockers that may actually increase fracture risk), how safe and effective the current oral and injected osteoporosis medications are, which foods may help protect our bones, the best type and frequency of exercise, how to reduce fall risk, and more.

THANK YOU. So much more informative and nuanced than what any doctor or health column in a newspaper has provided.

Brilliant! Thank you Dr. Greger & your team! 👍

[betzib]

Thank you for letting everyone see this.

[SherryEllesson]

Dr Greger, I hope that the questioner who was struggling with a doc who wanted to push calcium supplements stops and recognizes that MDs are like any other kind of professional - some are forward-thinking and keep up with new information being discovered, and others are less conscientious and content to go with what they think has worked before, whether it's been "put to the test" or not. Thanks for this webinar.

Thanks a lot. Walk and talk test. I have a young neighbor with severe rheumatoid arthritis
who can not walk and talk more than 1 hour and have to sit down and talk. Now I see why. I never met with such phenomenon before. God bless!

You all will be stunned to learn that diet and exercise are better than any other intervention or prevention strategy. Sleep would probably help, too.

Hopefully you do webinars like this on all the issues. I get it you gotta play the YouTube game and put out short videos periodically but I much prefer these long format videos that really deep dive. Like your videos on stents and how they don't really work except in the case of a heart attack. There's like 7 or 9 videos covering that. Would be awesome if they were all just in one video together. Would make it much easier to send to someone instead of sending them a bunch of videos.
