The Best Lab Tests for Osteoporosis in 2025 With Dr. Kim Millman and Margie Bissinger, MS, PT, CHC

Osteoporosis is often diagnosed during routine screenings, with doctors relying on bone mineral density (BMD) tests to assess bone strength in the spine and hip. While BMD testing is valuable for detecting low bone density early, predicting fracture risk, and monitoring treatment progress, it only tells part of the story. Understanding your full osteoporosis risk requires a deeper look at the underlying factors affecting bone health. In this episode, Dr. Kim Millman, an integrative medical doctor and founder of The Millman Clinic, discusses the updated lab tests that provide deeper insights into bone metabolism, hormone balance, gut health, inflammation, and nutrient levels—all critical factors in osteoporosis prevention. She also shares the surprising link between cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. Join us as we discuss the latest updates on osteoporosis lab testing. Discover which tests matter most and how they can help prevent fractures before they happen. With the proper testing, you can start your journey to healing and take control of your bone health! “Just the mere fact that you have bone loss makes you more likely to have cardiovascular disease... Once I realized and understood that, I knew I had to understand where the links were coming from and how we could test to figure out where in the pathway we could intervene so that we could prevent and also have the opportunity to improve the strength and resiliency of our bones." ~ Dr. Kim Millman In this episode: [00:00] - Intro [03:27] - The link between heart health and bone health [05:12] - Studies about coronary artery plaque and bone density [10:12] - Shared risk factors between heart disease and osteoporosis [13:32] - How to use Dr. Millman's interactive testing tool [16:03] - Webinar: Essential Lab Testing for Unbreakable Bones [46:52] - How to get help from Dr. Millman [50:19] - Details about the next Restore & Rebuild class Resources mentioned RESTORE & REBUILD – 100 DAYS TO HEALTHIER BONES - https://themillmanclinic.com/randr (Early bird price $797 until Feb 28th; Use coupon code HAPPYBONES25 $100 off until Feb 28th) Dr. Millman's free lab testing guide: https://themillmanclinic.com/bonestes...
