Join Dr. Laila Tabatabai, Chair of the AACE Bone and Parathyroid Disease State Network, for an expert-led discussion on how nutrition and exercise support bone health. She is joined by Dr. Deborah Sellmeyer, an internationally recognized endocrine expert in metabolic bone disease at Stanford University, and Rebekah Rotstein, founder of the Buff BonesĀ® exercise system.

 

Together, they explore:

  • How much calcium and vitamin D are needed for bone health
  • The benefits of weight-bearing, resistance, balance, and impact exercises
  • Supplements that support bone health, including vitamin K, magnesium, boron, and strontium, along with the potential benefits of prunes
  • The growing role of muscle strength, sarcopenia, and protein in osteoporosis care

 

Whether you are a clinician or someone managing osteoporosis, this episode offers practical, evidence-based insights to help guide informed decisions.
