The session will be led by Susan Brady, MPT, Integrative Health & Nutritionist, and will address common misconceptions about osteoporosis and bone health. Participants will learn evidence-based strategies for reducing fracture risk and maintaining strong bones through nutrition, movement, digestion, stress management, and appropriate supplementation.
