@mpc1 From the information that I have been exposed to, the greatest concern is fragility fractures and fortibone seems to be effective there. I also understand (humbly as a lay person) that type 2 collagen is also important to strengthen tendons and ligaments. I am 73 and my skin could use help so I figured I would throw that in to the mix too.
AlgaeCal is about the same price as osteonaturals and it contains all three peptides. (I dont endorse any particular brand as long as it gets us where we need to be).
How long have you been taking fortibone, if I may ask? I have been taking some form of fortibone for 2 years now and feeling much stronger and less frail. I am glad that you are feeling stronger. If your scores did not change, that is improvement.
18 months on the fortibone. My gram per m2 did increase, but my trabecular bone score was borderline low quality. Different machine because I wanted a TBS. Lower T score but higher gm/m2 in spine. Hips are all -1–1.4. I never felt frail.
Thanks so much!

There is no problem taking it while taking meds.
Look for collagen peptides containing Fortibone. If you Google "collagen fortibone", you'll get what you need.
