If you, or someone you know is dealing with osteopenia or osteoporosis, you are going to want to listen to this great conversation I had with Dawn Holey, owner of OsteoStrong in Ft. Lauderdale.
If you are trying to understand how to best manage this condition, and are confused about the information you are getting, even from your doctor, then take a listen to learn how to best manage your condition and what to do, from a natural perspective that can help you thwart off bone loss. Bone health is a big deal and we at the Brandwein Institute want you to know that we are here to support your efforts and can help make sense of the conflicting information that is often presented in this arena.
Dawn’s own personal journey and her subsequent passion for helping others maintain and optimize bone health are fascinating. Take a listen to how she too is working to improve not only your bone health but your overall wellbeing.
