Exercise and Bone Building Q&A

[@ShrinkingJenn]

I’m 44, Dexa results -3 Z score in spine 1 year ago. What would be a good expectation for score improvement if I continue with the recommended exercise, supplements & nutrition with no meds. Or is it impossible to improve enough to warrant avoiding the Osteoporosis meds?? I have very low estrogen, high thyroid & on GERD meds ... and I’ve bariatric surgery. Thank you!! 🌷

would you recommend a weighted vest when walking ? Thanks

[@DrSusanBrown]

Yes, that is one of the most common uses for a weighted vest! Wearing it while walking increases the impact of every step.
