Ep. 252 How To Optimize Your Bone Health with Bone Coach Kevin Ellis

Today, I am honored to connect with Kevin Ellis, the Bone Coach. Kevin Ellis, better known as Bone Coach™, is a certified Integrative Nutrition health coach, podcaster, Youtuber, bone health advocate, and the founder of BoneCoach.com. After an osteoporosis diagnosis in his early 30s, he realized just how challenging it can be for the average person to make sense of what needs to be done to improve and how to move forward confidently with a stronger bone plan. So many women struggle with osteopenia and osteoporosis throughout their lifetimes. In this episode, Kevin and I dive into his background and interest in osteoporosis and celiac disease. We discuss bone health, osteopenia, osteoporosis, and the various contributors to bone health. We get into conventional treatments for osteoporosis, explain why they are problematic, and discuss proactive ways to address osteoporosis. We also speak about the role of the gut microbiome in bone health, a study on how blood pressure accelerates bone aging, and the impact of insulin resistance.  I hope you will enjoy listening to today’s discussion as much as I did recording it! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Kevin talks about his background and explains how he developed an interest in bone physiology and bone coaching. How osteopenia differs from osteoporosis. How to find out if you have osteoporosis. How to find out if you are actively losing bone. Some common lifestyle factors that negatively impact bone health.
