ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Bone loss starts in your 30s. Most women never find out until years of silent decline have already stacked up. In this episode of Informed Choice with The Naija Goddess, Emma Elliott, PharmD, BCPS, a Board-Certified Pharmacotherapy Specialist and clinical pharmacist, breaks down the muscle-bone connection the healthcare system treats as two separate problems when the biology says they are one.
Topics covered in this episode:
- Why sarcopenia begins as early as age 35 and what women can do before it becomes a crisis
- The hormonal window between your 30s and early 50s and what estrogen decline means for your bones
- What a pharmacist actually thinks when a woman walks out of a clinic with a calcium supplement and no real plan
- The evidence-based case for strength training as the primary intervention for both muscle and bone, and why 20 minutes twice a week is the minimum effective dose
- Why protein, magnesium, vitamin K2, and boron matter as much as calcium and almost never come up in clinical conversations
- The herbal spotlight is stinging nettle (Urtica dioica), one of the most mineral-dense plants on earth, delivering boron, calcium, magnesium, silica, and vitamin K2 in a whole-food form the body knows how to absorb.
