On The Better Yoo Project, host Lexi Yoo, NP talks with Dr. Doug Lucas about why he walked away from a decade of orthopedic surgery. He realized the operating room was where metabolic problems showed up 20 years too late.

Dr. Doug argues that bone loss is not a normal part of aging. When bone is disappearing, there is usually a specific cause that can be found. They discuss why the screening guideline at 65 fails most women, why common calcium advice is often misunderstood, and how bone, muscle, and hormones work together in midlife.
