Want to rebuild bone strength, relieve joint pain, and prevent osteoporosis after 40?

In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein, a leading orthopedic surgeon from Duke University to explain what every woman over 40 needs to know about bone health during menopause.

Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein is an orthopedic surgeon specialized in sports medicine and associate professor of orthopaedic surgery at Duke University School of Medicine.

Dr. Wittstein is co-investigator with Dr. Anne Ford of Duke Women’s Health for the Duke Musculoskeletal Systems of Menopause Registry. She is president of the Forum: Women in Sports Medicine, co-author of The Complete Bone and Joint Health Plan and a mom of 5! Her husband is also an orthopaedic surgeon.

Dr. Wittstein breaks down:

• How estrogen loss affects bones and joints
• Why frozen shoulder and arthritis spike after menopause
• How to reverse bone loss with strength training and nutrition
• When to get a DEXA scan (and what it tells you)
• What foods and supplements support stronger bones
• Whether hormone therapy or GLP-1s can help
