I am also in the 90 - 95 percentile for women on my heart, but not one of the three cardiologists I've seen has mentioned not taking calcium. The only concern came up when I started investigating Evenity, The rheumatologist I saw recently found two studies that showed that Evenity can potentially make coronary calcium worse. He wasn't quite willing to take a hard line against Evenity for me based on those studies, though.

I am impressed that you have been able to make improvements to your bones with a WFPB diet and exercise. My brother is a huge fan of this diet and has been trying to get me to try it. I'm quite okay with just eating plants and grains, but I'd have a hard time giving up my kefir, yogurt, milk and cheese. Those are my staples.

Also, thank you for the advice on kale powder. I will have to look for that.

It's been over a year since your last post. Would you please give us an update on how your next DEXA scan went?

Take good care!
