The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show

Dr. Doug Lucas joins Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to reveal five hidden causes of bone loss and what actually rebuilds bone at home.
Episode date:

Everyone on a GLP-1 is watching the scale, but almost no one is watching their bones. On The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and Dr. Doug Lucas explain why bone loss is a reversible signal that something deeper is going wrong, and why it starts much earlier than most people are told.

Dr. Doug covers why bone loss often begins around 45 during perimenopause, the blind spots in the standard DEXA scan, and the bone turnover markers (CTX and P1NP) you can test in blood. He also clears up myths about protein and alkaline diets, and shares what rebuilds bone at home: resistance training, real impact, and vibration plates.
