Osteoporosis is a disease of decreased bone density, with the threshold of diagnosis being 25% or more bone loss compared to that of a standard 30 year old female. Dr. Reame’s diagnosis has motivated her to learn more about osteoporosis and spread awareness about the condition to adults over 65.

On this podcast, Diana Mason, PhD, RN, FAAN, registered nurse and host of this program, hosts Dr. Nancy Reame for an in-depth discussion about what osteoporosis is, how to analyze your own risk for developing it, and her personal experience with the disease.

In an article published to The River Newsroom titled “Climate Health is Human Health“, writer Lissa Harris explores how New York’s Hudson Valley region has experienced the impacts of global climate change. Once an issue that many years ago may have seemed out-of-reach, worsening climate change is now affecting our lives on a tangible level, and is requiring a collective country, state, county, and now, local community call to action. In her article, Harris examines New York state’s current efforts and future plans to decarbonize the environment, and the many ways in which those efforts have a direct impact on human life.

On this podcast, registered nurse Diana Mason, PhD, RN, hosts The River Newsroom reporter Lissa Harris for a discussion about community health, and how climate changing actions such as the burning of fossil fuels will continue to cost communities and residents their health and wellbeing.
