I don’t know about you, but when I was a little girl, all of my teachers and my parents used to tell me to drink my milk! Why? Because they said it’s good for my bones.

Well, I have come to realize as an adult, and as one who works with other adults to become and remain Visibly Fit, that the health of your bones is one of the key indicators of your overall health. And you need far more than a glass of milk per day to get your bones healthy and strong! In fact, milk DOES NOT do the body good and I certainly steer my patients far away from it.

My guest on today’s episode is an absolute expert on all things bone health. Dr. Charles Price has specialized in the health and vitality of human bones nearly his entire career as a doctor, and his story is born out of personal tragedy which projected him on his current path.
