Bone health is often overlooked until it becomes a problem, but for thyroid patients and women in midlife, it’s a now issue. 🦴

In this episode of Thyroid-Healthy Bites, I sit down with Dr. Susan E. Brown, PhD, a medical anthropologist, clinical nutritionist, and founder of the Center for Better Bones, and Alkaline for Life. Together, we unpack what you need to know about supporting your bones naturally, especially if you’re navigating hypothyroidism, perimenopause, or dairy-free living.

You’ll learn:

How much calcium women really need—and when to supplement
Why Vitamins D, K2, and magnesium are key co-factors
The truth about dairy-free diets and bone health
How thyroid and parathyroid function influence bone health and metabolism
Simple lifestyle shifts that make the biggest difference

Dr. Brown also shares her holistic approach to bone health, including the surprising role of emotional well-being in maintaining strong, resilient bones.
