In honor of the month where skeletons take center stage, we want to talk about our own skeletons. Did you know the human body has 206 bones? Or that there are 26 bones in the human foot? Join us as we explore fun facts about bones and answer your questions about bones. Have you ever wondered what foods are best for supporting the health of your bones? What puts you at risk for osteoporosis? Why do our bones pop sometimes?
