Dr. Millman dives into the research behind genistein, explaining how it supports bone formation and reduces bone resorption, making it a great natural alternative for those looking to improve bone health.

With solid research backing its effectiveness, genistein is a promising option for enhancing bone health naturally. Tune in for a closer look at this groundbreaking supplement.
