    The Truth About Bone Loss: How to Strengthen Your Bone Health at Any Age Naturally

    Are you doing everything right and still struggling with your bone health? You’re not alone.

    In this solo episode of Talk to Vicky, RHN: A Total Approach to Wellness, I get personal about my own borderline osteopenia diagnosis and what it’s taught me about the journey to stronger bones—and a stronger life.

    From the foods we eat (hello, plain Greek yogurt) to the sneaky nutrient thieves in our diet and lifestyle (we see you, soda pop and stress), I break down why bone health isn’t just for women “of a certain age”—it’s a lifelong mission. Whether you’re in your 30s or your 60s, this episode is a heartfelt wake-up call to take your bone density seriously and start making informed, empowering choices for your body.
