Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Inside Science interview series on radio and podcast. I’m Paul Vogelzang, and today’s show is brought to you by CastleFLEXX for stretching and mobility and Babbel: Language for Life.

Thank you so much for listening. We’ve got a great guest today in honor of May being the month to discuss awareness of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis (PMO)Dr. Kristi Tough DeSapri, will join us in just a moment . But, quickly, if you missed any episodes, last week was our 715th episode when I spoke with science writer  Dr. Marc J. Seifer, about his new book  Ozone Therapy for the Treatment of Viruses. Two weeks ago I spoke with Sally Adee. Sally Adee’s new book is We Are Electric: Inside the 200-Year Hunt for Our Body’s Bioelectric Code, and What the Future Holds.  Excellent subjects for our Not Old Better Show audience. If you missed those shows, along with any others, you can go back and check them out with my entire back catalog of shows, all free for you, there on our website, NotOld-Better.com.  You can Google Not Old Better and get everything you need about us!

Although topics like sexual health, muscle decline, and skin elasticity related to women’s aging are abundantly covered, bone health is often neglected— and something all women, at every age—need to prioritize. Osteoporosis is a chronic disease that shouldn’t be accepted as a normal part of aging, and there are options available to treat PMO.  As a national leader in the field of bone health and menopause, Dr. Kristi Tough DeSapri truly believes that women deserve to function at optimal health and are gatekeepers to their families’ health. Dr. Kristi Tough DeSapri started Bone & Body Women’s Health with the goal of matching what midlife women want from a medical visit with her desire to spend quality time and expertise with her patients. May is the perfect time to make your audience aware of the importance of bone health and other topics related to aging, so let me introduce you, and let’s learn more about  Postmenopausal Osteoporosis (PMO) from Dr. Kristi Tough DeSpari.
