NatureWise calcium citrate? I just got diagnosed with osteopenia 😞 so I'm listening to these episodes again

I may even need to revise those episodes.

Melissa — have you read Estrogen Matters? I can’t recommend it highly enough. Even if you read only the chapter called Breaking Bad. Do not fret, but there is more to say (particularly about the benefits of HRT on preventing osteoporosis — more than calcium citrate could ever do). Just read it and we can discuss. 🙏

Thanks Colleen!

Thank you, this was so informative and saved me hours of research trying to navigate all the information out there!

Is there an app you would recommend to help track daily intake of protein, calcium, sodium, etc?

I’m intrigued and hopeful about your closing words of being able to reverse osteopenia. I look forward to the next episode!

Thanks so much, Sara! The app I like is MacroFactor. I used to use another, but this one is better for me. More soon. Got my DEXA scan and will share the results! :)
