* estrogen is a major anti-inflammatory hormone
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein—orthopedic surgeon, sports medicine expert, and Associate Professor at Duke University—for a powerful and practical conversation about bone and joint health across the lifespan. From the challenges of frozen shoulder and arthritis to the truth about running and menopause hormone therapy, this episode is your definitive guide to staying strong, mobile, and pain-free well into your 40s, 50s, and beyond.
We cover:
* Why your joints and bones start changing after 30—and what to do about it
* The difference between male and female aging (and why 50 hits women harder)
* The role of estrogen in health, inflammation, muscle mass, and osteoporosis
* The truth about running and arthritis: myth vs. reality
* The supplements Dr. Wittstein actually recommends (and which ones she used to dismiss)
* What we’re learning about GLP-1 medications and their surprising effect on bone and joint health
Whether you’re an athlete, a parent, or entering perimenopause, this conversation is a masterclass in movement longevity and joint and bone preservation.
