Dr. Doug takes a closer look at OsteoBoost and the research behind its claim to reduce bone loss, including the NIH-funded clinical trial, FDA clearance, and what the data actually shows for women with osteopenia and osteoporosis. He also compares targeted vibration to whole-body vibration, discusses using OsteoBoost alongside osteoporosis medications and hormone therapy, and explains who may benefit most from this device.*Previous Osteoboost videos on the Dr. Doug Show*https://youtu.be/zXldEexcWmYhttps://youtu.be/pdGGMERl6VAhttps://youtu.be/zt_0evLeOqQhttps://www.osteoboost.com/drdougUse promo code DRDOUG50 to save $50 on the osteoboost.🔗 Explore Dr. Doug’s Bone Health ResourcesRegister for the free bone health masterclass, learn more about The OsteoCollective, and find additional ways to connect with Dr. Doug: https://drdouglucas.com/start-here

In this video, Dr. Doug explains how estrogen dose, estradiol levels, and bone turnover markers can help show whether HRT is truly supporting bone health. He breaks down why DEXA and REMS can take 12 to 24 months to reflect change, while markers like CTX and P1NP can offer earlier insight.

This video from Douglas Lucas breaks down how osteoporosis medications should be used strategically, not just prescribed in isolation. He explains that drug sequencing matters, with evidence showing the best results come from starting with anabolic (bone-building) drugs before transitioning to other therapies. He also highlights how bone turnover markers (P1NP and CTX) can guide treatment decisions and track whether you’re building or losing bone.Previous video discussing Bone Turnover Markers: https://youtu.be/1yc46jLwkD0🦴 Stronger Bones.

In this video, Dr. Doug Lucas revisits bisphosphonate drugs, explaining that while they can effectively increase bone density and reduce fracture risk short term, they are not ideal as a long-term solution. He emphasizes that these medications can still play a role when combined with lifestyle, nutrition, and hormone optimization rather than used alone. The key takeaway is a “both-and” approach, using medications alongside natural strategies to support bone health. He also highlights the post-drug “holiday” as an important window to maintain or even improve bone density with the right interventions.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7477143/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17190893/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25990354/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12919708/🦴 Stronger Bones.

This episode tackles a common belief that hormone therapy and osteoporosis medications should not be used together. Dr. Doug reviews available research showing that hormones and bone drugs often work synergistically, supporting bone metabolism rather than interfering with treatment. He explains how different classes of medications interact with estrogen and progesterone, and why treatment decisions should focus on improving overall bone biology and reducing fracture risk.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40363988/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16418784/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10487668/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10690882/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11932272/🦴 Stronger Bones.

In this video, Dr. Doug breaks down the most powerful tool for monitoring bone health beyond a DEXA scan: bone turnover markers. He explains how CTX and P1NP reflect real-time bone breakdown and building, and how using a simple ratio can show whether you’re trending anabolic or losing bone. Through drug trials and diet research, he demonstrates how these markers predict outcomes long before imaging changes. The goal is faster, smarter decision-making so you can protect and potentially improve bone density with confidence.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27641143/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38544922/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25827453/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30635696/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39791502/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39657000/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4425157/🦴 Stronger Bones.

In this episode, Dr. Doug sits down with orthopedic spine surgeon Dr. Nick Birch to break down why the T-score alone is not an accurate measure of fracture risk. Dr. Birch explains how REMS imaging adds bone toughness and the fragility score, giving a far clearer picture of real-world bone strength. Together they explore how misinterpreting T-scores leads to fear, misdiagnosis, and unnecessary lifestyle limitations, and how better data can help women stay active and confident.*Get the science behind changing T-scores and REMS results in this live webinar with leading experts.* Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/sI1HCl8vSuuWKfapFN6Fpg?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwMEpFeW1HeW12NzdXSGZPSAEeZXcxUyBosU4K09yxVS2yRX5_pt7aB76KvOjYJLsAhrbbXSJy8Hu0TbeKj2M_aem_G467WAHSeZOk5H9IRxNyrQ*Connect with Dr. Nick Birch*Osteoscan UK: https://www.osteoscanuk.com/International Institute of Musculoskeletal Health Education (IIMHE): https://iimhe.org/🦴 *Stronger Bones.
