Menopause & Bone Health Nutrition
As estrogen declines during menopause, women experience an increased risk of bone loss. A balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, coupled with weight‑bearing exercise, is key to maintaining bone health. As a state‑registered dietitian, I’ll guide you through dietary and lifestyle strategies to feel your best during this transition.
