They're almost all defying it.
I don't think we can avoid it forever.
But I don't think that we have to accept it as something that is inevitable throughout the majority of our health span.
And what I've really come to identify bone loss as is a biomarker of health span, meaning if we're losing bone,
there's probably something wrong.
Like something's going on.
We don't know what it is yet, but we can use this as a red flag to say, Hey, your body's talking to you.
Something's going on.
We need to figure out what it is.
Yeah, I think it starts a little bit before, but they're going to coincide.
I think the underlying mechanism is probably very similar.
I think we just can measure it in bone faster.
So actually, the seven-year-old child is a great example of this.
Our bones are a dynamic organ system.
Imagine what happens in a seven-year-old's body, right?
How quickly are they growing all of the open growth plates, all of that growth?
That doesn't stop when you reach your peak height or even your peak bone density in your late 20s, early 30s.
that metabolism continues on.
There's this funny statistic.
I actually don't know where this comes from, but there's this statistic floating around that says that we have enough bone metabolism to generate an entirely new skeleton every 10 years.
