Trixiegirl, I'm no spring chicken either. I'll be 75 in 2 months. Started Ostesostrong in Aprill 2022 and my Dexa in April 2024 showe significant increase in bone mass without any drugs or heavy weight lifiting. And Dr. Lucas was an Orthopedic surgeon who really got into bone health. He also does regular zoom calls that anyone who is a member of Osteostrong is invited to attend...they're very helpful.

It's a lot of self study and research. But I've been doing my research and saying no to big pharma for my various issues since my 20s. And here I am nearly 75 and I've never been on any ongoing prescription meds. I've taken antibiotics for a SPECIFIC thing, like staph infection or sinusitis or after a tooth extraction to prevent infection. I've taken an antiviral when I got a very mild case of shingles 2 years after I took the vaccination! But all of those things were finite...10 days or 3 days, etc. I've rejected Boniva, Fosamax and Reclast and after 2 years of osteostrong I got a very similar result that someone who took osteo drugs for 2 years would have had. And as I said, MY BONE INCREASE did not include WEAK OLD BONE forced to be left behind by the chemicals in osteodrugs that suppress Osteoclasts - thus changing the normal body chemisty and bone remodeling processes.

I would have been sad if Osteostrong had been unsuccessful...Not just for the time and money but because I'd have to do more research into another alternative. So I was thrilled with my result. Lately I've had some spinal arthritis pain and I'm treating that with FASCIA STRETCHING and it works. NO MEDS. I WISH I could trust our pharmaceutical industry but I simply cannot. I've read too much and I know too much.

Congratulations on doing your own research re the pharmaceutical industry. The damage some of these osteoporosis drugs do to our bodies is somewhat shocking. And because many of us have trusted our doctors (who know very little re nutritional education and natural healing because there is huge profit for themselves in NOT knowing), we continue taking them experiencing the results of the damage done. (And in this forum one can read about that damage done through Boniva, Fosamax and Reclast.) But if people do their research they will find the truth of what it is that can rebuild bones. And that we don't need to be at the mercy of Big Pharma and our doctors telling us that bones can only be maintained using these powerful meds. We live in a society that has been hoodwinked into believing that a natural alternative is only new age nonsense. Check out Barbara O'Neil and Dr Susan Brown who offer proven studies and suggestions indicating otherwise.
