STOP! Don't do this if you have osteoporosis
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: 2 days ago | Replies (255)Comment receiving replies
I too am not taking any medication for my bone loss.
I’m 74, active by doing Pilates and Yoga 3-4 x week, garden, started intermittent gentle jogging wearing a 4-8 lb weighted belt or vest on land and in pool, eat lots of greens daily , lots of protein, take red algae calcium 600 mg daily, extra magnesium, vitamin D3, and B complex. I recently started taking Bone Health Peptides with FORTIBONE. I’ve been to two endocrinologists.
My t-scores aren’t outrageous except for my Femoral Neck is -2.5 .
So far the Dr.s say without taking meds I will NOT gain any bone density.
I’d like to prove them wrong!
I will retest in early spring if 2025 to see if I have improved.

Meri8181, Which brand red algae calcium are you taking? Also regarding magnesium - how much do you take daily and also which brand? Do you take any other supplements like a multi, K?
I too am not taking drugs. I think i can feel my bones getting stronger. I will redue my dexscan in January to see what it looks like. Did all the bloodwork Keith McCormick wanted and i think he was surprised at some of thevresults. Been doing Bone Stim Liquescence along with Supra Silica and vitamins. Started PT 6 weeks ago and feeling stronger every day. I too am not taking any medications. We will see what story is in January.
@meri8181 I sure hope you’re right but aren’t you playing Russian Roulette with your bones? If you’re wrong you may not be able to gain back what you lose. Good luck trying to fight nature.

@meri8181 if femur neck at -2.5 is your worst score, then your spine and hip do not have osteoporosis- is that right?
For those of us with more severe bone density loss, the activities you list are scary 🙂 I cannot do yoga (twisting), garden and the thought of jogging is laughable. So I hope you can continue as you are.
I took a master class with Lani Simpson in 2021 when she was about to go on Tymlos. Keith McCormick, another expert n holistic approaches, took Forteo and Fosamax.
You are 74 and doing well and fingers crossed you never need meds!
