Healthy Bones with Margie Bissinger

On today’s podcast we’re talking about your bones. It’s important to keep your bones strong to prevent fractures and injuries. The choices you make today with your diet, exercise and other lifestyle factors will impact your bones today and in the future, as you age. You may be surprised to know that many of the things you do to support healthy bones are also good for your skin (and vice versa).
