Most people think strong bones are defined by a single number: bone density. But what if that number is only telling part of the story?
In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong sits down with Dr. John Neustadt for a second conversation centered on his latest work in bone Health and fracture prevention. Together, they unpack a critical distinction—bone density versus bone strength—and why focusing solely on scan results may leave many people at risk.
Dr. Neustadt brings a research-driven perspective to the overlooked factors that truly determine fracture risk, including medications, nutrient status, fall risk, and even gut health. This conversation expands the lens on osteoporosis beyond postmenopausal women and into a broader, more actionable understanding of lifelong skeletal health.
If the goal is not just to improve numbers, but to prevent fractures and maintain independence, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
