In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy dives deep into the fascinating world of bone tissue. With the help of the most important member of the IOHA team, Geoffrey the Skeleton. We explore how bones are living, dynamic structures that constantly remodel themselves, the microscopic architecture that makes them strong, and how diet, exercise, and lifestyle choices impact bone health. From the structure of compact bone and osteons to the role of collagen and hydroxyapatite, this video answers all your questions about bone health.

Discover why calcium and vitamin D are crucial for bone strength, how exercise influences bone density, and what happens when bone health goes wrong, including conditions like osteoporosis.
