Stop Waiting on Your DEXA: How to Track Bone Health in Real Time

In this video, Dr. Doug breaks down the most powerful tool for monitoring bone health beyond a DEXA scan: bone turnover markers. He explains how CTX and P1NP reflect real-time bone breakdown and building, and how using a simple ratio can show whether you’re trending anabolic or losing bone. Through drug trials and diet research, he demonstrates how these markers predict outcomes long before imaging changes. The goal is faster, smarter decision-making so you can protect and potentially improve bone density with confidence.Study Linkshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27641143/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38544922/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25827453/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30635696/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39791502/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39657000/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4425157/🦴 Stronger Bones.
