What the research actually shows
The numbers that put it in perspective
People in the UK have osteoporosis
Most don't know it — until a bone breaks.
Women over 50 will break a bone because of osteoporosis
It's not bad luck. It's preventable bone loss — and it starts decades earlier.
Fragility fractures every year in the UK — one every minute
A fall from standing height. A simple movement. That's all it takes.
About Slowing the Clock
A practical health guide built on established research in longevity, fitness, and metabolic health. We translate research into clear, honest guidance — designed to help you make informed decisions about your health. Written to inform, not to steer.
What's inside the guide
15 chapters covering everything you need to protect your bones and stay independent
Why bone strength declines — and what actually drives it
Ageing, hormones, inactivity, nutrition — this chapter explains why bones weaken over time and which factors you can actually influence.
Chapter 2 — understand why it happens
The exercises that genuinely strengthen bone — and how to do them safely
Not all exercise helps bone equally. This chapter explains what weight-bearing and resistance training actually do — and how to build strength without unnecessary risk.
Chapter 8 — exercise for stronger bones
What your bones actually need from your diet — and where most people fall short
Protein, calcium, vitamin D — the three nutrients that matter most for bone health, why UK adults often don't get enough, and how to fix that without overcomplicating things.
Chapter 9 — nutrition for bone health
A 12-month plan to build stronger bones and reduce your fracture risk
Phase by phase, habit by habit — a structured plan that builds strength gradually over a year. By the end, bone protection is part of your normal routine.
Chapter 14 — your 12-month bone health plan
Most people don't act on bone health until a fracture forces them to. This guide helps you act before that moment.
