Could something living inside the body be quietly working against your bone health without you ever knowing it?
Nutrient depletion, inflammation, and digestive disruption can weaken the foundation needed for strong bones. By the time osteopenia or osteoporosis is diagnosed, a silent culprit may have been influencing bone density for years.
That question makes this episode especially worth revisiting.
In this conversation, I’m joined by Dr. Jaban Moore, Doctor of Chiropractic and functional medicine practitioner, to examine parasites as an overlooked contributor to bone health challenges. We cover how parasites interfere with building and maintaining bone density. Dr. Moore also shares practical guidance on parasite protocols, gut support, and detoxification strategies for those managing osteopenia or osteoporosis.
