S3 Episode 10 - We discuss DEXA scans and how IBD affects bone density and osteoporosis!

Send us Fan MailWelcome to S3 episode 10! Bone health is something that goes hand in hand with IBD. It can be a silent problem until it isn't. We go over how it is detected through a DEXA scan, how to understand your scores, things you can do for better bone health, and how IBD patients are affected. We also discuss intestine cookies and Mason's new Invisalign! We are family friendly and want our audience to be involved! Listen together, separately, but ultimately we hope we bring some attention to some well deserved topics on chronic illness. Go to the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation's page at https://www.crohnscolitisfoundation.orgFollow us on Instagram @TeamIBDetermined, @TheReggieProject, and @KarmatudeCandlesTo find out where to listen to our podcast visit https://www.buzzsprout.com/1911185To purchase IBDetermined t-shirts: https://www.bonfire.com/store/karmatude/To order candles:www.karmatudecandles.comLinks from show:*https://health.ucsd.edu/care/imaging/dexa/*https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4917635/#:~:text=The%20T%2Dscore%20is%20a,and%20sex%20as%20the%20patient.*https://www.niams.nih.gov/health-topics/bone-mineral-density-tests-what-numbers-mean#:~:text=If%20you%20are%20a%20premenopausal,age%2C%20ethnicity%2C%20and%20sex*https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/adult-health/in-depth/bone-health/art-20045060
