keeping our bones healthy for life. She introduces her five
pillars of bone health - BONES—Balanced nutrition, Optimal

shares why addressing each is critical for building and
maintaining strong bones.


Susan also explores the fascinating gut-bone

and gut dysbiosis can block the absorption of key nutrients your
bones need. Plus, she shines a spotlight on how exercise,
especially weight-bearing and resistance training, stimulates
bone growth and strength. Susan’s passion for empowering the next
generation is clear as she calls for proactive education on bone
health during adolescence, when peak bone mass is built. Don't
