Hormone Replacement Theory (HRT) for Menopause and Osteoporosis

Did you know that hormones play just as big a role in bone health as calcium? When estrogen levels drop during menopause, bone loss accelerates rapidly. But here’s the good news! For many women, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can help reduce the symptoms of menopause and reduce your risk of osteoporosis.

In this video, we’re diving deep into:
✅ The crucial role of estrogen in bone remodeling
✅ Why menopause leads to rapid bone loss (and how to slow it down!)
✅ Essential nutrients for bone strength – beyond just calcium & vitamin D
✅ Exercise & lifestyle changes to build and maintain strong bones
✅ Bioidentical hormone therapy – is it a safe option for bone health?
✅ What the research REALLY says about HRT and osteoporosis

If you’re in perimenopause, menopause, or post-menopause, this is must-know information! Don’t wait until a fracture happens—take control of your bone health today.
