Your Price $0.00 - $54.00

Studies have shown that daily prune consumption can have a positive impact on the bone health of postmenopausal women. Building on this, researchers are actively exploring the role of inflammation mediators in these bone-related outcomes. In this session, Connie Rogers, Ph.D. reviews the existing body of research on prune consumption, bone health, and inflammation, and will discuss their implication in her upcoming study. Following this, Lauren Manaker, MS, RDN, LC, CLEC, CPT, discusses practical ways that clients/patients can incorporate prunes into their lifestyle to reduce inflammation and support their bone health.
