In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, hosts Laurel Beversdorf and Dr. Sarah Court critically examine common beliefs surrounding spinal flexion exercises and osteoporosis, particularly from a yoga and Pilates perspective. They delve into two pivotal studies on exercise and fracture risk, both led by Dr. Mehrsheed Sinaki, a renowned specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.The first study, Postmenopausal Spinal Osteoporosis: Flexion versus Extension Exercises, is frequently cited on Pilates websites and in yoga and Pilates teacher trainings as evidence that spinal flexion is risky for individuals with osteoporosis—even during bodyweight exercises. However, despite its widespread use to justify movement restrictions, the study has notable methodological flaws. The second study, Stronger Back Muscles Reduce the Incidence of Vertebral Fractures: A Prospective 10-Year Follow-up of Postmenopausal Women, suggests that progressively overloaded back strengthening exercises can reduce fracture risk—even if the strengthening occurred only for a few years in the distant past. Yet, this study also has its own limitations.When viewed together, these studies present an intriguing contrast: one warns of the potential dangers of spinal flexion (even under low loads) based on weak evidence, while the other highlights the lasting protective benefits of strength training. Laurel and Sarah explore why bodyweight spinal flexion is often singled out as risky and question whether this caution is always justified.They also discuss the ethical implications and the boundaries of a movement teacher's scope of practice—particularly when making broad recommendations to avoid certain movements based on limited or flawed research. The hosts emphasize the importance of individualized context in exercise prescriptions, the need to follow medical guidance from a student's doctor, the evidence-backed benefits of strength training, and the necessity of empowering students with the autonomy to make informed movement choices.Get on the wait list for our Bone Density Course: Lift for LongevityFollow Movement Logic on Instagram00:56 Podcast Production & Content Creation01:33 Bone Density & Squat Depth02:20 Benefits of Full ROM Strength Training08:24 Is Spinal Flexion Dangerous for OP?10:00 Issues with Yoga/Pilates for OP Classes18:43 1984 Paper: Flexion vs. Extension for OP40:22 Flaws in the 1984 Study41:57 2002 Study: Stronger Back Muscles & Fractures43:03 2002 Study Design & Methods46:35 2002 Study Key Findings52:09 2002 Study Limitations56:30 Practical Takeaways01:06:15 Ethics for Movement Teachers01:17:43 ConclusionReferences:Episode 77: Make Dr. Loren Fishman Make SenseEpisode 92: Are You Getting Dexa Scammed? 1984 Sinaki paper 2002 Sinaki paper

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 3-20-2025: Dr. Dawn responds to an email about osteoporosis treatment options, explaining the risk assessment for fractures, discussing injectable alternatives to Fosamax for patients with swallowing difficulties, and analyzing vibration plate therapy's effectiveness for osteoporosis. The show explores scientific curiosities including genetically modified "woolly mammoth mice" created using CRISPR technology, showing how gene editing advances could potentially resurrect extinct species and preserve the endangered. Dr. Dawn shares research revealing that tea leaves can effectively remove heavy metals from water, with both black and green tea varieties working equally well. The show discusses how strength training provides the most significant benefits for insomnia sufferers, outperforming other exercise types by creating the micro-damage necessary to trigger deep, restorative sleep. Dr. Dawn describes fascinating developments in biohybrid robotics, where researchers created a functional hand using lab-grown human muscle tissue capable of gripping objects and making scissor gestures. Now they'll work on "rock" and "paper". A caller seeks clarification about the tea purification process, with Dr. Dawn explaining that discarding used tea bags (rather than composting them) prevents reintroducing concentrated heavy metals into the environment. She examines Alpha-gal syndrome, a meat allergy triggered by Lone Star tick bites that can cause reactions to mammalian products including red meat, gelatin, keratin, and lanolin. The show addresses environmental concerns about "forever chemicals" (PFAS) in sewage sludge fertilizers, potential risks to farmworkers and highlighting studies linking drinking water contamination to increased childhood cancer rates in affected areas. Dr. Dawn explores the expanding benefits of GLP-1 drugs beyond weight loss, including reduced risks for liver failure, cardiac arrest, addiction disorders, and even Alzheimer's, while noting potential side effects. She discusses how GLP-1 medications fundamentally change food preferences and behaviors, citing cases where users shift spending from restaurants to exercise equipment and from processed foods to fruits and vegetables. A caller seeking advice on building muscle mass at age 70 receives recommendations about proper protein intake, hydration needs with kidney disease, and the importance of resistance training over general activity.

A Gluten Free Podcast Episode 169In today's episode of A Gluten Free Podcast, I share something personal in the hope that it might help you on your own coeliac and gluten free journey. I recently had a bone density scan, and the results showed that I have osteopenia. This was a screening I had to push for. It wasn't something that was automatically suggested to me. If I hadn't advocated for myself, I wouldn't have known about this issue or had the chance to address it early.Coeliac disease is an autoimmune condition that affects much more than just digestion, and bone health is a big part of that. Many people with coeliac disease are at risk of low bone density due to years of malabsorption before diagnosis, yet routine follow-up care isn't always offered. That's why it's so important to be proactive about your health.In this episode, I talk about:My experience getting a bone density scan – what led me to push for it and how I felt about the results.The link between coeliac disease and osteopenia/osteoporosis – why coeliac disease can put people at risk for weakened bones.The importance of follow-up care for coeliac disease – what health checks should be part of ongoing management.Why you need to be your own best advocate – because if you don't speak up for your health, things can be missed.Follow-Up Care for Coeliac DiseaseCoeliac Australia provides clear guidelines on what follow-up care should look like for people with coeliac disease. This includes:Regular blood tests to check for nutrient deficiencies and coeliac antibodiesA repeat gastroscopy (if needed) to check for intestinal healingBone density scans for those at risk of osteoporosis or osteopeniaMonitoring for other autoimmune conditions linked to coeliac diseaseResources & LinksCoeliac Australia's follow-up care recommendations: https://coeliac.org.au/learn/ongoing-management/More information on coeliac disease and bone health: https://coeliac.org.au/article/osteoporosis/Join the ConversationHave you had a bone density scan?

Today, I'm joined by Dr. Doug Lucas, a leading expert on osteoporosis, as we dive deep into innovative approaches for reversing this widespread bone disease. With over 50 million people in the U.S. affected by osteoporosis, understanding the causes and solutions is more crucial than ever. In this conversation, we explore how osteoporosis develops as a result of an imbalance in the body's metabolic processes, making bones more fragile and prone to fractures. Dr. Lucas shares his expertise on shifting away from traditional pharmacological treatments and embracing lifestyle and dietary changes. We discuss the power of hormone replacement therapy, the importance of personalized nutrition, and how comprehensive testing like REMS ultrasound and blood panels can uncover the root causes of bone loss. If you're looking to optimize your health span, identify the early signs of osteoporosis, and learn how to incorporate nutrition and exercise into your routine for better bone density, this episode is packed with essential insights. Tune in to uncover how small shifts in your daily habits can make a big impact on your bone health. Key Takeaways: Osteoporosis is fundamentally an imbalance of bone metabolism, which can be reversed naturally through lifestyle modifications and nutritional interventions. Hormone replacement therapy is a crucial consideration for maintaining bone health, especially in postmenopausal women. Personalized dietary plans focusing on adequate protein intake from animal sources are vital for preventing osteoporosis. Comprehensive testing, including REMS ultrasound and detailed blood panels, are essential for diagnosing and monitoring osteoporosis effectively. An integrative approach addressing diet, lifestyle, hormonal balance, and physical activity can significantly improve bone health and overall well-being. More About Dr. Doug Lucas: Dr. Doug Lucas is a double board-certified physician specializing in osteoporosis reversal, hormone replacement, and healthspan. After completing his training at Stanford University and practicing for nearly a decade in the field of orthopedic surgery, Dr. Doug left his practice to pursue an additional fellowship and board certification in anti-aging and regenerative medicine. He went on to achieve the status of fellow in Anti-Aging and Metabolic Medicine.

Does Calorie Restriction Even Work? What About the Carnivore Diet AND Fruit? Today we are excited to have Paul Saladino join us for a masterclass on food and diets. Dr. Saladino dives into the evolution of keto and carnivore diets, cutting through trends to focus on lasting health impacts. Dr. Saladino, widely recognized as CarnivoreMD, shares how his own diet shifted to include fruit and honey alongside animal-based nutrition, and why metabolic flexibility—not rigid rules—leads to better outcomes. Together, he and Dave challenge assumptions about long-term ketosis, examine its potential downsides, and explore how to optimize diets for energy, gut health, and longevity. They also tackle controversial topics like the risks of seed oils, the overhyped reputation of “health foods” like quinoa, and the critical roles insulin and nutrient density play in overall wellness.

In this eye-opening episode, we tackle the controversial topic of thyroid medication and its alleged link to osteoporosis and osteopenia. Dr. Rebecca Warren dives deep into the media's portrayal of this issue, the laziness within the medical system, and the lack of comprehensive studies addressing the root causes of thyroid dysfunction. With 7% of the American population on thyroid meds, this conversation is more relevant than ever. Dr. Warren covers: - The misleading nature of clickbait articles and the importance of critically assessing studies on thyroid medication and bone health. - The role of T3, the active thyroid hormone, in bone health and why its absence in studies is concerning. - The potential overprescription of thyroid medication and the necessity of understanding individual thyroid needs. - The impact of lifestyle factors like protein intake, weight-bearing exercises, and vitamin D levels on bone health. - The gender bias in the medical system, particularly in women's health, and how it contributes to untreated hormone issues. - The importance of a holistic approach to health, focusing on the body's ability to heal itself. Dr. Warren passionately advocates for informed decision-making and patient advocacy, urging listeners to question the status quo and prioritize their overall health.

Quality of Methylene Blue is Imperative; Research: Red Light Therapy's Effect on Vitamin D & Blood Glucose Levels

There are undeniable health benefits when it comes the methylene blue; most notably, its profound impact on the mitochondria. Secondary to that, people are understandably going to be excited and compelled to seek out a methylene blue supplement to start accruing those advantages. And as with any supplement... the quality matters!​​When it comes to the quality of methylene blue for human consumption, it is incredibly imperative. The fact of the matter is that supplements can say that they utilize USP grade methylene blue, yet the lab results still show heavy metals — like mercury, lead and others — can still be higher than what you want to put in your body. I discuss this issue, which is likely more prevalent than we would all like to believe. However, it does verify the high-quality, ultra-pure methylene blue and leucomethylene blue that is sourced for BioBlue products. I also cover two very interesting photobiomodulation research articles that look at unique aspects, and potential benefits, of red light therapy that have not been discussed before.The first article looks at osteoporosis in individuals with complete spinal cord injuries. However, the profound takeaway from that study is ​about serum vitamin D levels. The second study sheds light on photobiomodulation's impact on blood glucose levels. If more research can verify what was found, the demand for red light therapy will skyrocket (via pre-diabetics and diabetics).​​ If you found the information in today's episode particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.

You're just a workout, even a warm up set, away from strength training benefits in menopause. In this episode you will learn or get a refresher on just how soon you can expect to get those immediate results we all crave. Unlike Amazon you can't get them dropped on your doorstep in a few hours, but you will be pleasantly surprised (or reminded) by the fact that some changes happen in seconds. Within Minutes these are Happening: Increased Heart Rate - which means increased blood flow to brain and because of that a decreased level of pain and increased sense of alertness and creativity and problem solving Release of Anabolic Hormones - testosterone and growth hormone blood sugar reduction - it's used for the fuel for the exercise, even 10-15 air squats works so of course, if you're lifting with a load or tempo that causes more muscle stress Release of Neurotransmitters - this occurs more with intense exercise and may take a few minutes but by the end of your workout, dopamine, and Improved Neuroplasticity - if you're trying to learn a new language or absorb new information you might want to push play while you're working out. How to amplify these while you workout? Want more "feel good" hormones ? Play music you love, workout with a friend (and yes, even an exercise video if you feel like the instructor "gets you" and is more than a drill sergeant could do this) Want to take advantage of learning or inspire a little creativity? If you're already working on a project, absorb a little content about it before the workout and don't necessarily dwell on it while you workout. Your brain may actually answer questions you ask while you're taking a break from it. But also, listen to that Spanish lesson or informative podcasts while you exercise. Within days or weeks these strength training benefits occur Reduce Hot Flashes - in the  24 hours after a moderate or higher intensity workout. The same is not true of low or leisurely activity. A 2012 study in the medical journal Menopause. Continued Neural Connection - studies show a large part of initial gains - up to 8-12 weeks of training - are still due to that stronger neural connection. During this time, heavier may not be better, especially for women in midlife with history of injury or tendency toward injury. Blood Sugar Control Improves - reducing insulin resistance issues that negatively impact visceral belly fat, so you will be on the path to reducing total fat as well as directly impacting visceral fat Strength Increases - due primarily to the neural connection as your brain learns or also strengthens the signaling between brain and muscle while you're learning a new movement pattern or waking up an old one. This isn't yet due to size (or hypertrophy) so the first few weeks you may not see noticeable change but you will already be picking up a heavier weight. Fiber Size Increases - after those first weeks and as that neural connection continues, muscle fiber size increases, and you'll likely see more tone as evidence. Changes in Fiber Type - less noted but the anaerobic exercise improves your type two or fast twitch fibers. So important for aging because these are lost without intentional stimulation. These changes will continue and enable more powerful speed and agility work that further enhances your aging process. Tendons And Ligaments Improve - a big bonus for midlife women who have lost estrogen and are thus more prone to injury. You'll be improving resilience in those for every day activities as well as preparing to do heavier work that will be a greater stimulus for bone and metabolism boosts. Over Months and (lasting) Years....these strength training benefits occur Reversed Aging Effects of 179 Genes Associated with Aging - hello game-changer. If you start October 1 by April 1 (no kidding) you'll be younger. Increased Bone Density - with the right progressive protocol (we don't jump in at the end and we can't stay at the beginning if you're able to do more) significant changes take 9 months to a year for the bone remodeling process. But if you're having an annual DEXA (and I highly recommend you do), you'll have noticeable change with strength training as you also fix any gut issues. Reduced Risk of Both Sarcopenia and Osteoporosis in Late Life - muscle and bone loss historically have been issues related to metabolic disease and structural issues related to falls, fractures, bedrest, weakness and injury directly related to falls or consequent falls. Resistance training is proven to decrease this risk. But ? Pilates and yoga may be on the continuum... they are on the left... not the right. Psst. Sarcopenia and osteoporosis BOTH begin in your 30s. Muscle peaks at 25, bone at about 30. Losses of each begin around 30 and 35, respectively. Think about what you were doing. Were you consuming adequate protein? Doing high impact and high intensity resistance training? Were you prioritizing sleep? Or were you on weight loss diets one after the other, skipping meals or skimping on calories, or making poor choices? You may have been doing the best you knew then, or may have been ignoring best in search of short cuts to skinnier obsessions so many women have. You can support a young woman from making the same mistake. Her bones could be better thanks to you.

After undergoing several tests, I've discovered that I have low levels of DHEA, progesterone, and estrogen, as well as low thyroid function and dysbiosis.

Additionally, I'm not sure if stress might be contributing to all of these issues. I feel like I'm going in circles, and I would really appreciate any advice you may have on how to proceed.

My question is, I found out I have a vagal schwannoma in my neck right next to the carotid bi-furcation. We have been watching it for 2.5 years with MRI's every 6 months. After slow growth we've decided I should just remove it and move on with my life. We looked into radiation as well, but for some reason, despite all the risks I face with this location being operated on, I'm leaning towards surgery. But I would really love to know what you would advise. Also, should I do the surgery which is scheduled for this summer, how would you suggest I prepare for the surgery and how are there certain things I should have ready to help heal from the surgery? Thank you so much for your advice.     Kristen: Are sparkling waters bad for our bones? I drink about 2 Spindrifts per day (in addition to plenty of plain water, small amounts of coffee in the morning, and tea several times per day). I was diagnosed with osteopenia so I need to be extra cautious. I've already made so many changes (including the decrease in coffee- just to name one of MANY). I really enjoy the sparking waters and do not want to take them out unnecessarily, but I worry their higher acidity is bad for my bones. From my understanding, there are not any solid ‘studies' that show non-cola carbonated waters are linked with low bone density BUT rationally speaking, they probably do. Please tell me I'm wrong though! Thank you!     Zach: Since 2020-20221 (when I got sick) I have been having different sensations take place on my skin. It feels a penny is being heated up and pushed onto my skin making it feel like a burn or cold-water dripping. There are no visual marks on my skin when these take place. The sensation can show up anywhere from my arm, chest, leg, hand etc. and only stays in a spot for seconds. It doesn't hurt but is extremely annoying as this has been going on for a few years now. Do you have any idea what this is? I recently sent my test in as I purchased the big 5 and a consultation with Jenn.     Jessica: My mom has debilitating sciatica pain. She had an injury in her back 30 years ago where she twisted her back and pinched a nerve but the pain is only coming back terrible now … nothing is helping including acupuncture, physical therapy, chiropractic adjustments etc. What do you recommend??     Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!      - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3116 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Stuart McGill, Ph.D., a distinguished professor of spine biomechanics at the University of Waterloo and a world expert on spine anatomy and physiology, back pain, and rehabilitation. We discuss the most common sources of back pain, how back pain can be assessed (including self-assessment techniques), and how to design a personalized recovery plan to reduce back pain. We discuss how to train for lifelong fitness, reduce injury risk, and protect your back and joints based on your age and personal goals. We also discuss how to prevent back pain, build core stability, and explain how “McGill's Big 3” exercises protect and strengthen the back. Dr. McGill, who is exceptionally fit in his late 60s, describes his low-time investment, personal training routine, and the specific exercises he uses for mobility, strength, and cardiovascular fitness. We also discuss controversial issues in the back pain and rehabilitation field, including how pain originates, the biopsychosocial model of pain, and treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP). This episode provides clear, actionable tools to strengthen, prevent, and remedy back pain and injury so you can be pain-free while enjoying sports, exercise, and daily activities at any age.
