The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
And I think that earlier for me, you know, I was doing it as a a young girl. So important, right? because you're kind of banking that that bone density early on, which is important because at some point, you know, menopause will hit and and uh estrogen goes down and and so you start to lose more bone.

bone mineral density is very important for both sexes but women are at a greater risk and the reason for that is um the way bones work and I'm oversimplifying a little bit but you know bones effectively have strain gauges in them and they respond to tensile stress so when a muscle is Contracting the muscle via the tendon is attached to the Bone and as the muscle contracts the bone is compressing so imagine a strain gauge inside the bone that senses that well that's a that's a mechanical signal that gets converted converted into an into a chemical signal so mechanical to chemical via estrogen estrogen is the hormone that does the signal transduction and that tells osteoblast and osteoclast which are the bone building bone reabsorbing cells to make the bone stronger not weaker so in other words the the use it or lose it philosophy is at play here and estrogen is the key link now men and women have estrogen and it's very important for both sexes um the difference is women lose estrogen precipitously in midlife and therefore women are more at risk for osteopenia and osteoporosis
