Resolving Osteoporosis and Optimizing Bone Health - A Tour de Force Update

Did you know that "bone-eating" osteoclast cells are derived from
immune cell precursors and are stimulated by inflammation, just
like other immune cells? Or that bone has its own glycocalyx whose
health is essential to realize the benefits of exercise for bone?
Folks, Dr. Keith McCormick is back on New Frontiers with ever-more
juicy pearls like these, and with important updates on bone care
for functional medicine practitioners and patients alike. Dr.
McCormick is living proof that osteoporosis and a history of
multiple bone fractures - he had 12 between the ages of 45-50 - are
not an irrecoverable life (or death) sentence. In fact, even as he
nears 70, Dr. McCormick is out there competing in Ironman and
pentathlon events, living his life to the fullest. Dr. McCormick is
arguably the top thinker and practitioner on bone health from a
systems and functional point of view. His nuanced navigation of
diagnostic tools as well as both pharmaceutical and
nonpharmaceutical interventions is fully comprehensive and deep.
You'll want to tune in to find out how he navigates his patient
cases, casting a wide net for underlying contributing factors, his
go-to interventions for specific situations, how he doses
supplements, and more. Please do let us know what you think, and
leave us a review wherever you listen to New Frontiers, and don't
forget to check out the show notes at DrKaraFitzgerald.com for all
