Hi - no, he gave no pushback. I weighed 138 at the time, about 5’ 4 1/2”. My sister had a terrible time on it - granted she weighted a lot less, like 105. But I was concerned about bad side effects. It’s working. My scans are much better - more to be revealed in February, when my next scan is.

There are alternatives Algaecal, sesamin, strontium, weight bearing exercise. From a study In Journal of natural medicine. We screened 22 plant extracts for the
promotion of osteoblast diferentiation and mineralization in
MC3T3-E1 cells. Nine extracts showed enhanced ALP activity and mineralization in MC3T3-E1 cells. Furthermore, the
inhibitory efects of these candidates on osteoclast diferentiation were evaluated. The results suggest that D. carota
(No. 8), Vitis. spp. (No. 11), S. veitchii (leaf) (No. 14), E.
polyandra (No. 15), and S. indicum (No. 22) have potential
as efective plant extracts against osteoporosis because they
promote osteoblast diferentiation while inhibiting osteoclast
diferentiation without cell damage. In a future study, we
plan to identify the active components of these plants and
clarify their underlying mechanisms

My sister had to go off of it due to side effects. Doctores love to hand out pills rather than look at alternative to improving bone health.
