Morgan Tuohy is seven days into the launch of Dera, a trail running belt brand built around a BOA-style dial closure that nobody's tried before in the category. He sold out of two sizes in under eight hours, shipped hundreds of belts from his living room until 3 AM, and had $500 left in his bank account two days before launch. He's 27 years old. In this conversation, Morgan walks through the full founder journey — from stitching prototypes in his attic with fabric from old running shoes, to convincing one of Osprey's largest factories to take a chance on him, to the moment Tim Tollefson told him he wasn't allowed to NOT do this. He also talks openly about his first failed brand, why he set three rules for himself this time around ("I know nothing, everyone else knows everything, and they all want to help"), and how seven members of the Second Nature Slack channel played a direct role in getting Dera off the ground. This is a brand launch captured in real time — and a reminder that sometimes the best businesses start with a sewing machine in an attic and the willingness to ask for help.

This is the first episode of a three-part series that teaches you how to use BETTER DATA to reverse type 2 diabetes.  In this episode, we will cover the most accurate, accessible tool--the DEXA scan--to understand WHAT your body is made up of.  You will learn why understanding your body composition is SO powerful for healing insulin resistance, how to get a DEXA scan, and how to read your report.We also get into the difference between visceral fat and under-the-skin fat and how to preferentially burn visceral fat using lifestyle strategies, a critical step in healing from type 2 diabetes.Work with SarahGet the Food Guide

This podcast is listener-supported. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.In today's episode, we take a closer look at DEXA scans — what they measure, what the numbers actually mean, and whether getting one is worth it.These scans are becoming more common in fitness and wellness settings, providing insight into body fat, muscle mass, visceral fat, bone density, and even something called “biological age.” But how should we interpret those numbers? What can they tell us about our health — and what can't they tell us?Using my own recent scan as a starting point, we explore how body composition data can serve as a baseline for understanding our bodies, tracking changes over time, and making more informed decisions about strength training, fat loss, and bone health.In this episode, we talk about:* The difference between total-body composition scans and clinical DEXA scans used to diagnose osteopenia or osteoporosis* What body fat percentage actually measures — and why it's different from BMI* The concept of body recomposition: reducing body fat while maintaining or gaining muscle* Why visceral fat matters for metabolic and cardiovascular health* What biological age means — and why it should be interpreted cautiously* How to understand T-scores in bone density reports* Why the hip and spine are the gold-standard sites for diagnostic bone density scansAnd we close by talking about what really matters most: what we do with the information once we have it — including how strength training, nutrition, and lifestyle choices influence fat, muscle, and bone as we age.

What if you did absolutely everything right: the hormones, the biohacking, the exercise, the nutrition…and STILL ended up needing hip replacement surgery at 54? That is exactly what happened to gerontologist Zora Benhamou, founder of the Hack My Age podcast, and her story is one of the most important and relevant bone health conversations we have had on this show to date. In this conversation, Zora breaks down the critical difference between osteoporosis (bone density loss) and osteoarthritis (joint degeneration) that too many women (and even many doctors) get completely wrong. She walks through the risk factors that set her up for surgery despite a lifetime of doing things right, what an early warning sign of osteoarthritis actually feels like in your body, and why the DEXA scan your doctor ordered may only be telling you part of the story.  We are discussing the REMS scan, a newer ultrasound technology that measures bone quality and strength rather than just density, and she shares the jaw-dropping story of her husband whose results would have landed him on medication he did not need. She covers the science of what forces bones actually require to rebuild, why jumping off a step beats the treadmill, how hormones and bone health are connected, and what protein and minerals actually have to do with fracture prevention. This is also a conversation about bone loss fear and why understanding the full picture is far more powerful than a single scan result. Key take away: bone loss is not a life sentence. Osteoporosis is reversible. And midlife is exactly the right time to take action.  Learn More About Zora Benhamou Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/hackmyage  Website ➜  https://hackmyage.com  Thank you to our show sponsors!

In this powerful and eye-opening episode, I sit down with Dr. Susan Brown, medical anthropologist, clinical nutritionist, and founder of Better Bones, to unravel the truth behind modern osteoporosis care. We explore how the DEXA scan became the gold standard—despite its limitations—and why so many women are being mislabeled as “high risk” when the full picture of bone strength has never been evaluated.Dr. Brown brings a rare combination of science, global anthropology, and decades of clinical research to explain why bone density is not the only indicator of fracture risk, why stress is one of the biggest bone disruptors, and how minerals, digestion, muscle strength, and lifestyle patterns create a much more accurate blueprint of true bone health.If you've ever felt overwhelmed, confused, or frightened by a diagnosis, this episode will help you breathe again—and understand your bones in an entirely new way.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy DEXA scans are often misleading, especially for petite womenThe history of osteoporosis and how its definition was createdThe 20 essential nutrients your bones require dailyWhy chronic stress and cortisol silently dissolve boneHow muscle strength reflects bone strengthThe surprising accuracy of ancient healing systems like AyurvedaWhy heavy lifting is not the only path to stronger bonesHow digestion, mineral balance, and oxidative stress influence bone remodelingHow to build confidence and reduce fear after an osteoporosis diagnosisAction Steps You Can Take TodayReduce stress daily through breathing, meditation, nature walks, or groundingSupport digestion to improve nutrient absorptionAdd bone-supportive nutrients, including magnesium, vitamin K2, trace minerals, and potassium-rich foodsBuild muscle gradually using movements that feel safe and functionalShift toward alkaline-leaning eating patterns with more fruits and vegetablesGet your Vitamin D and hormone levels checkedLearn the “witness practice” to observe thoughts instead of internalizing fearExplore your medical osteoporosis workup to uncover underlying causesResources & LinksBetter Bones Website: https://betterbones.comHealthy Gut, Healthy Bones ProgramStronger Bones Lifestyle Programs & ResourcesDebi's TakeawayYou are so much more than a T-score. Your bones are alive, responsive, adaptable, and deeply influenced by how you eat, move, think, and live. Don't let fear of a diagnosis shape the rest of your life. When you nourish your body, calm your nervous system, and support your digestion and mineral balance, your bones can—and will—respond. Healing is possible.

Your bones, brain, and muscles are having the same conversation—and nutrition is the translator. Duke orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein breaks down how midlife hormone shifts accelerate bone loss, cartilage wear, and muscle decline, and why training + food choices can improve all three at once. We cover earlier DEXA timing, the bone–brain crosstalk (osteocalcin, agility, balance), and a practical plan: progressive strength, safe impact/jump options (step drops, heel drops, rebounders), grip and toe work for fall prevention, and weighted vests/rucking basics. On the nutrition side, we get specific: prioritize protein, aim for food-first calcium, and use targeted support where appropriate—vitamin D, omega-3s, magnesium glycinate, collagen, and turmeric—to lower inflammation, protect joints, and support cognition. Expect clear modifications for cranky knees/shoulders, plus why consistent movement is linked to reduced dementia risk. This episode is your integrated blueprint to build bone, protect your brain, and keep muscle on your frame—so you stay strong, steady, and independent for decades. Actionable, hopeful, and BS-free—use this episode to build stronger bones, happier joints, and real confidence for the next 20 years.Follow Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein at https://www.instagram.com/jocelyn_wittstein_md/Her book, The Complete Bone and Joint Health Plan, is available at booksellers._________________________________________1:1 health and nutrition coaching or Faster Way - Reach me anytime at mailto:mfolanfasterway@gmail.com If you're doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, it may be time to look deeper.

In our chat, Dr. Ben White dives into why DEXA scans are agame-changer for understanding body composition, going beyond the usual BMI. He breaks down how these scans give us a full picture by measuring bone density, visceral fat, and lean mass. We also talk about why strength training is crucial, especially for women after menopause, to keep bones strong and healthy. Plus, Dr. White stresses the importance of keeping an eye on body composition to catch any health issues early on.Dr. White is a residency trained and board certified orthopedic clinical specialist physical therapist, husband, father, and general nerd. He is in private practice for physical therapy and as of last year opened up the first and only Dexa Scan body composition testing facility in North East Ohio, DexaFit Cleveland. You can find him at www://cleveland.dexafit.com and on Instagram at Dexafit Cleveland

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! In this episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses the importance of strength training during the off-season for athletes, emphasizing its benefits for longevity, performance, and overall health. He shares a case study of Dave Pray, a 70-year-old cyclist who improved his lean body mass by 8 pounds and reduced body fat by 35% through a combination of high-intensity intervals, low RPM cycling, and strength training.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Raina: Hi Dr. Cabral! Hope you're feeling groovy and vibrant on this fine day! :) I recently had a baby.. I was planning for a home birth but things didn't go as planned. After 100+ hours of labor I went to the hospital and ended up with an emergency c section. My baby was taken to the NICU because of struggling to breathe - she had swallowed meconium which quickly came out and she was then breathing fine. While I was in recovery from surgery and she was in the NICU the med team gave her a vit K shot, despite the fact that i previously told them no injections. Now I'm trying to right their wrongs. Is there anything I can do to help her body after receiving the vit K shot? Also, how could I best support her body after a c section and not getting the benefits of a natural vaginal birth? Thanks!!!!!                                                                     Jennifer: Hi Dr. Cabral! I would like to get your thoughts on mesenteric panniculitis. I am a healthy 50 year-old female, currently IHP level 1 student. I had a CT abd/pelvis a few months back for a pretty bad GI virus. Scan showed enterocolitis however incidentally noted “mesenteric panniculitis, likely chronic”. I have read this (mesenteric panniculitis) can be autoimmune related and wanted to get your thoughts and any recommendations. By the way, I will be completing my first Dr. Cabral 21 day detox in 2 weeks and already feel great! Thank you so much for all you do!                                                 Jill: Dr. Cabral, I enjoy and learn so much from your podcast and appreciated learning about mammogram alternatives in episode 3049. Similarly, I'd love to find DEXA alternatives with no radiation and wanted to get your feedback on REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry). This technology has no radiation and is made by the Echolight company in Italy. It is currently available through Precision bone imaging in CA and AZ and because the technology is portable was also available to book at my local OsteoStrong location in Las Vegas, NV. Additionally, can you give your feedback on the FDA cleared device called OsteoBoost?                                                                                       John: He doc. Just wondering if you read the book the one minute cure and if you did what did you think about it . Thanks keep up the amazing work                                                                                                                                                                   John: Hey doc . In one of your previous podcast you mention how good the sauna is to do post workout, I'd like to know iif that's only after an anaerobic workout or if it's good after an aerobic workout to .

Endocrinologist Joy Wu says that osteoporosis can affect more than half of women and a quarter of men over 50 – often without symptoms until a fracture changes everything, leading to a loss of mobility and independence. Wu explains why bones weaken with age and how to strengthen them through exercise and smart medicine. Her lab is exploring innovative drugs and turning skin cells into new bone-forming osteoblasts. We're delving into the great mystery of building new bone and making old bones stronger, Wu tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

The day my DEXA scan results revealed osteoporosis was a wake-up call I dreaded. No symptoms. No warning signs. Just a family history of poor bone health. The casual “take medication and see you in two years" was a no-go for me. Like so many women in midlife, I knew there had to be another way.In this episode, I share my personal journey of reversing bone loss and improving my DEXA scan results—without relying solely on pharmaceuticals. If you are being presented with an option of drug therapy, please have the conversation with your doctor about what steps are best based on the severity of your disease. From strength training with proper form and lifting heavier weights, to increasing protein to 110–120 grams daily, optimizing supplements like vitamin D3, K2, calcium, magnesium, and collagen, and making lifestyle shifts around alcohol, sleep, hormones, and daily sunshine—this holistic approach has transformed my health in many ways.You'll learn:Why osteoporosis is called the “silent disease” (and how to catch it early)The nutrition, supplements, and workouts that actually support bone densityHow lifestyle choices—sleep, stress, and hormones—affect bone remodelingThe real results from my follow-up DEXA scanIf you're a midlife woman worried about osteoporosis, fractures, or staying strong and independent as you age, this episode will give you practical strategies and hope. Don't wait for a fracture to get serious about your bone health—start building stronger bones and a stronger future today.Supplements/Hormone Therapy I am taking: (Please consult your healthcare provider before adding any supplements.)Solaray Magnesium Glycinate https://amzn.to/4oCSXwR Solaray Calcium Citrate with D3 https://amzn.to/3HFEzTI Thorne Zinc https://amzn.to/4mLwATUOsteo-K Minis - NBI Health https://amzn.to/45UnNtfCollagen Peptides - Healthy Bones Co. https://amzn.to/419VNPLEstradiol 0.05 Transdermal PatchProgesterone 100 mgTestosterone 5mg. - Transdermal (compounded)Past shows on OsteoporosisEp.21 Kevin Ellis -  The Bone CoachEps.63 & 118 Rebecca Rotstein - The Buff Bones MethodEp.126 Dr. John Neustadt - Osteoporosis Research & NBI HealthEp.156 Dr. Doug Lucas - Orthopedic Surgeon and Osteoporosis Specialist _________________________________________Are you ready to reclaim your midlife body and health?

I'm about to share something that completely changed how I think about bone health – and it might shock you, too. For years, I've been getting DEXA scans and feeling confident about my bone health because my scores looked great. Then I discovered a revolutionary new test called REMS (radiofrequency echographic multi-spectrometry), and guess what? Despite my "perfect" DEXA results, I actually have mild osteopenia. This was my wake-up call, and it's why I'm passionate about sharing the complete truth about bone health supplements women over 40 need to know. Here's what no one tells you: traditional DEXA scans only measure bone mineral density – how much bone you have – but they miss the crucial piece of bone quality. You could have normal bone density but still have fragile bones if your bone architecture, turnover rates, and collagen integrity aren't optimal. That's why I'm diving deep into the cutting-edge strategies that go far beyond calcium supplements, including specific exercises that load your spine and hips, the power of creatine for postmenopausal women, and why a simple weighted vest might be one of the best investments you'll ever make for your future self. What you'll learn: Why waiting until 65 for your first bone density test is setting you up for failure (and when you should really start testing) The game-changing difference between bone mineral density and bone quality – and why you need both for truly strong bones How REMS testing provides a radiation-free, real-time assessment that's revolutionizing personalized aging care The specific exercises that create the bone-building stress your skeleton craves, including the magic of weighted vest walking Why bone health supplements women over 40 should include creatine HCL and how it works synergistically with resistance training The hidden risk factors stealing your bone strength (hint: it's not just menopause) My complete protocol for women 40+ to build and maintain strong bones from the inside out How to overcome anabolic resistance as you age and why protein timing matters more than you think Love the Podcast?

The episode with Big DEXA Energy!After achieving his weight loss goal and losing almost 30 pounds, Pete brings on Friend of the Show Evan to talk about his DEXA (Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry) results, or at least that's what they try to do and not get distracted by his, uh...gynoid area. There's also some nutrition and fitness chat as well.Props to Evan for helping put together this episode's thumbnail and the Radiomedic clinic in Saint-Léonard for the DEXA scan.

In this episode, I share my full DEXA scan results, including a visceral fat score of 0.38 pounds, which I’m determined to drop to “0.0 fricking zero” through sprinting—shown in research to preferentially burn visceral fat. My body fat is 21 pounds (12.5%), and I break down the fat and lean mass distribution throughout my body, including minor asymmetries. I was advised to gain 2–3 pounds of muscle for longevity, though my sprinting and high jump goals favor staying lean. I discuss why chronic endurance training can increase visceral fat due to cortisol overproduction, while short, explosive workouts like sprints or strength training create a healthy stress response. You’ll also learn why bone density suffers in cyclists and astronauts, what makes muscles a glucose sink, why Dr. Ron Sinha and Dr. Gabrielle Lyon emphasize maintaining muscle as the key to long-term health and metabolic flexibility, and I end the show with a plug for muscle-centric medicine—focusing on building and maintaining muscle as the key to longevity and leanness. TIMESTAMPS: There are three types of body fat. Brown fat is what cold therapy tends to activate. [01:07] The viseral fat collects in and around the abdominal organs and is extremely health destructive. [03:05] Testosterone replacement therapy is popular however one can also choose to focus on lifestyle optimization before you consider it. [04:20] The accumulaition of viseral fat is a sign that the body's fat storage systems have become overwhelmed. [10:34] Subcutaneous fat is soft and squishy. [12:38] The DEXA scan can examine the inside of your body. Sixty-eight percent of Americans are classified as overweight or obese. [13:31] If you have competitive goals, your body is going to respond to the training stimulus and create the body that is optimal for what you are doing to it. [22:40] For endurance training for a marathon or Ironman Triathlon, you to store visceral fat. [26:47] Our hectic stressful life causes a chronic overproduction of stress hormones. [28:41] More summary of the DEXA scan shows bone density, the weight of the skeleton, and how the viseral fat surrounds your organs. [30:01] The Tour de France cyclists lose bone density because they are sitting on their bikes instead of doing weight bearing exercise. [31:54] One can check out you viseral fat score by measuring your waistline. People have experimented with changing their body weight in a single day. [35:48] Focus on muscle mass.

In this episode, Dr. Doug Lucas and Sarah Glicken delved into the complexities of bone health, emphasizing its crucial role in longevity. Dr. Doug noted that while osteoporosis is often seen as a condition affecting older adults, its roots can be traced back to earlier life stages, making early intervention vital. They shared the limitations of DEXA scans, particularly their inability to assess bone quality, and why they advocate for the use of REMS technology, which offers a more comprehensive evaluation by assessing bone density and microarchitecture. We also touched upon the potential dangers of conventional bone medications, such as bisphosphonates, which can lead to side effects like jaw necrosis and atypical fractures. They emphasized the importance of exploring alternative therapies that focus on lifestyle modifications that include osteogenic loading and supplementation such as vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 (not calcium!)

Today we are going over the basics of DEXA. This will help patients understand the test and what is being measured. It will also help clinical providers understand this test better. Let's dive in! The BasicsDEXA stands for Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry-              Xray machine used for analyzing body composition-              Great at telling the difference between bone, fat, and lean tissue (mostly muscle)-              Uses 2 xray beams of different energies for this, hence Dual (via subtracting attenuation coefficients….or something like that)-              Most studied and widely used tool for looking at bone density-              USPSTF recommends all women over age 65 get one-              But 65 is way to late to get your first DEXA. The Cliff of old age is already luming at that point.-              I recommend getting one in your 20s or 30s to get a baseline and to help plan for the future. This will give you decades to improve things like bone density or get more muscled.Check out FullScope.org or Longetrics.org for the complete blog posts.
