OSTEOPOROSIS, OSTEOPENIA, SARCOPENIA PROGRAMS

DO NOT WAIT - REGISTER TODAY FOR OUR NEXT
“NUTRITION FOR STRONG, HEALTHY BONES” and/or
"EXERCISE FOR OSTEOPOROSIS” EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM!

Bones form the physical foundation of our body - the skeleton. The process of building a strong skeleton begins in the womb with good nutrition and movement - yes, we were kicking and punching long before we were born! We must follow good nutritional practices, establish an active lifestyle, and avoid bad habits throughout our childhood - and into adulthood - to maintain the strength and integrity of our bones and muscles throughout our lifetime.

Osteoporosis is a pediatric disease with geriatric consequences. Regardless of your gender or age (<20, 30, 50, 70+...) you should be concerned about the current health of your bones. Unfortunately, many people do not think about bone health until they experience a bone fracture or are presented with a diagnosis of Osteopenia or Osteoporosis. At that point, they are often left to their own devices to find out as much as they can about these bone diseases.

Having done their own research, some people are thirsty for more information. Some people still feel they are uncertain about what types of Exercise they should do, and are not sure what specific exercises are appropriate, safe, and effective for them. Other people still have questions about Bone formation, Nutrition, and Medications specifically related to Osteopenia and Osteoporosis.

We can help! Our educational programs are designed to help you make sense of the available information and better understand it so you can move forward and continue to lead the active, healthy life you want. 

Our “Nutrition for Strong, Healthy Bones” program, focuses on the NUTRITION component of living with Osteopenia or Osteoporosis. It is a sequel to our original 6-week program and is geared toward those who feel they already have a good understanding of Osteopenia, Osteoporosis, and Sarcopenia, but still have questions about bones, nutrients/nutrition, and supplements, specifically geared toward building and preserving bone density and bone strength. This 3-week WEBINAR series includes four important components:
1) Comprehensive education via slides and discussion
2) Discussions about Bone Density, Strength, and Remodeling
3) Important Nutrients and Recommendations
4) Healthy Nutrition Habits: Foods that boost bone health and foods to limit
This program is offered at 75% off the regular price to coincide with Osteoporosis Awareness Month!
