How Wearables Can Unlock Better Bone Health with Dr. Torkil Færø

What if your smartwatch or wearable ring could reveal how stress, sleep, and lifestyle choices are silently shaping your bone health? In this episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Torkil Færø, a Norwegian physician, documentary filmmaker, author of The Pulse Cure, and expert on heart rate variability (HRV).

Dr. Færø explains how wearables can go far beyond step counts — they can show us how well our body is handling stress and whether we’re truly recovering. Since chronic stress and inflammation are major contributors to bone loss, learning to monitor HRV can be a game-changer for women with osteoporosis or osteopenia.

Together, we explore the role of stress, nutrition, sunlight, and recovery in building resilient bones and creating a healthier future.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

The critical connection between HRV, recovery, and bone health
How stress hormones like cortisol can pull calcium from your bones
Why sunlight is about more than vitamin D—it’s a natural regulator for your body
Foods that can trigger inflammation and silently weaken your skeleton
How wearables provide biofeedback that helps you make better lifestyle choices

Action Steps You Can Take Today

Check your recovery, not just your steps. Pay attention to HRV data from your wearable to see how well your body is adapting.
Get mindful sun exposure. Sunlight helps regulate circadian rhythms and supports bone strength.
Clean up your diet. Reduce sugar, gluten, and dairy if they trigger inflammation for you.
Prioritize sleep and stress management. Recovery builds resilience that supports bone density.

Debi’s Takeaway
Your bones don’t get weaker overnight — they’re shaped by daily habits. Stress, poor recovery, and inflammation can quietly chip away at bone strength. The good news? By paying attention to recovery markers like HRV and supporting your body with sleep, nutrition, and sunlight, you can build a stronger foundation for the years ahead.
