Creatine is one of the most well-researched and effective sports nutrition supplements for improving exercise performance. But that isn't what I'm going to talk about in this podcast episode.

“The person who wins is often the one who is fending off the menopause the best!” Those were words of advice a fellow competitor once gave this week's guest, physiotherapist and competitive cyclist Nicole Oh. That would be something Nicole would come to learn firsthand just a few short years later, as she found herself navigating mysterious joint pain, hot spells, and concerning bone loss. This week Nicole talks candidly about how she preserved performance during the transition, why she now champions DEXA scans for midlife athletes, and the role of plyometrics in protecting bone health. She also discusses the importance of being proactive—not reactive—when it comes to training, recovery, and maintaining power, and her personal mission to crack 1000 watts. Nicole Oh is a physiotherapist from Sydney who specializes in the management of cyclists and triathletes. Nicole combines her cycling knowledge and physiotherapy skills to offer bike fitting services for all levels of riders. She also writes for the UK magazine Cycling Weekly on bike fitting, health and injury. Nicole was a late comer to endurance sports, starting as a triathlete, then switching to road racing in 2012 at the age of 35, racing in the UK, Europe, and now Australia. She has won National Masters titles in road and criterium racing, time trialling and cyclocross.

Every 11 seconds, someone ends up in the ER from a fall, and many of those are preventable. What if you could strengthen both your body and your brain at the same time, while reducing your risk of falling?  In today's episode, fellow physical therapist Dr. Mike Studer and I discuss the remarkable benefits of dual tasking, which combines physical movement with cognitive challenges to enhance balance, coordination, and bone health. This simple yet powerful approach has been shown to reduce fall risk and boost brain function, especially as we age. I'll walk you through some easy exercises you can do at home, why they work, and how they can help you stay strong, steady, and sharp. Whether you're recovering from a fall, supporting a loved one, or just want to feel more confident in your movement, dual tasking offers a fun and effective way forward. No special equipment needed—just your attention and a few minutes a day!   “When people become more confident in their divided attention, they also drop their fear. And while you're doing dual tasking, you can improve your strength." ~ Dr. Mike Studer   In this episode: - [04:43] - What is dual tasking? - [09:33] - Reintroducing play into your lifestyle - [13:30] - What physical therapists say about dual tasking - [16:21] - Four distractions that contribute to your risk of falling - [21:13] - Simple dual tasking exercises you can try - [26:44] - The link between dual tasking and cognitive function - [29:08] - Why multitasking is not the same as dual tasking - [32:25] - What is vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity? - [34:50] - The power of extreme or novel experiences - [46:01] - Integrating dual tasking exercises into your daily life   Resources mentioned - Mike's website - http://www.mikestuder.com - If you want a signed copy of Mike's book, send an email to mike@mikestuder.com, and include the address and who you would like Mike to make the book out to.

Is soy actually good for us? Have we been lied to about soy and phytoestrogens?Today I'm sharing some shocking studies on the health benefits of soy and other foods containing phytoestrogens. Soy may not be for everyone—including me (I share why in this episode)—however, it may actually help several women (and men!) in different ways. Here's what the science says… PLUS… foods that contain phytoestrogens beyond soy. STUDIES: This PubMed study found that Asian-Americans who ate tofu had a reduced risk of developing breast cancer. The more tofu they ate, the lower their risk. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8922298  Here are 11 PubMed studies highlighting how soy benefits our bones: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19367115 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11095177 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16763748 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14557449 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12920508 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15018488 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10757817 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15702593 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10479216 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15309425 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10966908 It appears that just taking a daily pill containing the isoflavone genistein may be enough to reap some of soy's bone density benefits:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17577003 People in Asia consume much, much, much more soy than those in the West:http://www.smart-publications.com/cancer/daidzein.php Interestingly, men may benefit slightly more than women from eating foods rich in phytoestrogens. These compounds are linked to reduced risks of cancer, cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and several other conditions: http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content-nw/full/294/12/1493/JOC50096T5 http://jn.nutrition.org/cgi/content/full/136/12/3046 http://content.onlinejacc.org/cgi/content/full/35/6/1403 As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.  And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app.  Sponsored By: Armra | Use code DIGEST for 15% off at tryarmra.com/digest  Fatty15 | For 15% off the starter kit go to fatty15.com/digest Bethany's Pantry | Go to bethanyspantry.com and use code PODCAST10 for 10$  Check Out Bethany: Bethany's Instagram: @lilsipper YouTube Bethany's Website Discounts & My Favorite Products My Digestive Support Protein Powder Gut Reset Book  Get my Newsletters (Friday Finds)

For too many of us Memorial Day is about picnics, bar-b-ques or visits to the beach. The real purpose for the holiday is to honor and mourn the men and women who have died serving our nation in the Armed Forces.Lt. Gen. David Fridovich, a 37-year U.S. Army Veteran, joins Manny Munoz to discuss Memorial Day. AND, May is Osteoporosis Awareness and Prevention Month....., but do you even know what it is or whether it is preventable? Munoz spoke with Dr, Laila Tabatabai, a member of the Board of the Bone Health and Osteoporosis Foundation

Our bone density is built in our teens and 20s, yet it begins to decline as early as our 30s. As our body's scaffolding, our bones play a critical role in how we move and function in daily life — and if it becomes compromised, it can affect not just our health, but our quality of life as a whole. Sandra Tadros Guirguis joins us to delve into the many factors that influence bone health — and what we can all do, no matter our age, to maintain or improve it.   Find the episode highlights, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/podcast/why-bone-health-matters-no-matter-your-age    Have thoughts you'd like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

Send us a textBONE HEALTH REVOLUTION: THE 3-MINUTE SOLUTION FOR LIFELONG STRENGTHIn this eye-opening episode, Dr. Orlena speaks with bone health expert Dr. Tracey Clissold about the "silent epidemic" affecting millions of women and the surprisingly simple solution that takes just minutes a day.Did you know we only have until age 30 to build the skeleton that must last us a lifetime? After that, we begin losing bone density—with losses accelerating dramatically during menopause when women can lose up to 20% of their bone mass in just a few years. This hidden decline puts two-thirds of women at risk for life-altering fractures as they age.The good news? Dr. Clissold reveals her groundbreaking research showing how specific "bone-jarring" movements performed for just 2-3 minutes daily can increase bone density by 3-5%—effectively reversing years of natural bone loss. And contrary to popular belief, walking and most other exercises don't create enough force to stimulate this bone growth.You'll also discover the critical nutritional triad supporting bone health: proper calcium intake (most women only get 70% of what they need), optimal protein consumption for both muscle and bone strength, and the often-overlooked vitamin D connection.Whether you're 30 or 60, this conversation offers actionable strategies to strengthen your skeleton and prevent the devastating fractures that can derail healthy aging.

Vitamin D is more than a vitamin—it's a hormone that influences everything from your immune system to cardiovascular health, cognition, and longevity. In this conversation, Dr. Michael Holick breaks down the science of vitamin D synthesis, the truth about sun exposure vs. supplements, and why vitamin D deficiency is far more common—and more dangerous—than most people realize. You'll learn how skin pigmentation, UVB exposure, and supplementation protocols impact your vitamin D levels, and why D3 is more effective than D2. Dr. Holick also dives into mood, cognition, and the controversial role of vitamin D in chronic disease and COVID outcomes. With dosage guidelines by age and weight, plus practical advice on avoiding vitamin D toxicity, this episode is a masterclass on one of the most important—yet misunderstood—nutrients in health and longevity.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 5-15-2025: Dr. Dawn provides a comprehensive overview of bone health, describing bones as the "silent architects" of our bodies that require ongoing care and attention throughout life. She outlines key risk factors including family history of fractures, eating disorders, hormonal changes, digestive surgeries, and medication use, while explaining how DEXA scans measure bone density through T-scores and Z-scores, recommending the FRAX risk calculator as a superior predictive tool. She shares practical strategies like weight-bearing exercise and proper vitamin supplementation (D, K2, calcium) alongside explaining the roles of osteoclasts and osteoblasts in bone turnover and how medications influence this balance. She addresses a caller's question about strontium citrate and isoflavone supplements for bone health after cancer treatment, clarifying that these differ from problematic boron and suggesting C-telopeptide or N-telopeptide testing to verify bone turnover rates beyond DEXA results. The program discusses a promising non-hormonal male contraceptive called ADAM, a dissolvable hydrogel implant shown in preliminary trials to block sperm for up to two years without serious side effects. Dr. Dawn addresses misconceptions about autism, describing it as a spectrum with diverse manifestations, explaining its neurological basis in atypical brain pruning patterns, and emphasizing it as a complex genetic vulnerability to environmental events. She evaluates a listener email about a supplement for urinary incontinence and metabolic health, warning listeners about marketing tactics and insufficient evidence behind many commercial products. Dr. Dawn examines "Fatty 15," a pentadecanoic acid supplement marketed for metabolic health, noting that while some rodent studies show promise for insulin sensitivity and liver health, human evidence remains limited compared to well-established benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. Dr. Dawn shares news about Orforglipron, a new oral GLP-1 medication in pill form for diabetes and weight management that appears as effective as injectable versions like Ozempic.. The show concludes with information about innovative plant-based transparent paperboard, a cellulose-based material that biodegrades within 300 days while offering a safer and more sustainable alternative to conventional plastics.

Deborah Kado is a geriatrician who believes her field is misunderstood. Her interest in the science of aging began with a childhood encounter in a nursing home but recently resulted in intriguing work in which Kado linked microbes in the gut to vitamin D metabolism and poor sleep. Kado refuses to blame aging alone for health problems, advocating for better care regardless of age. It's never too late to strive for better health, Kado tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

In this video, Dr. Doug Lucas discusses the complexities surrounding estrogen's role in maintaining and building bone density in women, particularly in the context of hormone replacement therapy (HRT). He critiques a recent study on low-dose estradiol, highlighting its limitations and the importance of individualized care based on various biomarkers rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Dr. Doug emphasizes that while low doses of estradiol can be beneficial, not all women require the same treatment, and a thorough investigation into each patient's unique hormonal profile is essential for effective care.*STUDIES*https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/197177
