This week on Health Matters, Courtney Allison is joined by Dr. Erica Eldon, physiatrist with NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine.

They discuss how our body builds strong and healthy bones, and what happens to our bones as they age—including why they can get brittle and contribute to things like breaks in hips or wrists, and even losing height in our spine.

Dr. Eldon describes the key factors in maintaining bone health over time. She explains why it’s especially important for women to incorporate resistance training into their self care, and offers some practical steps for everyone to take toward strong, healthy bones at every phase of life.
