070 - Bone Health & World Osteoporosis Day - Julia Thomson & Dr Louise Newson

In this podcast released on World Osteoporosis Day, Dr Louise Newson welcomes Julia Thomson, who manages the Royal Osteoporosis Society's Specialist Nurses Helpline.

Together, they discuss what exactly osteoporosis is and identify some of the major risk factors of osteoporosis. Julia and Dr Newson also talk about the various treatments options available for people at high risk of fracture; including hormonal therapies and non hormonal treatments such as bisphosphonates. DEXA scans are also an effective method of diagnosing osteoporosis and Julia discusses this along with the importance of a well balanced, calcium rich diet and regular exercise throughout life.

Dr Newson chats to Julia about her work at The Royal Osteoporosis Society and what the charity can offer people with concerns about their bone health and World Osteoporosis Day.

Julia's Three Take Home Tips:

  1. Make sure you and your family are getting the nutrition you need to keep your bones healthy.
  2. Remember that bone likes to be exercised! Always try to keep as active as you can.
  3. Talk to your GP if you feel you may be at risk of osteoporosis.
