Whole Body Vibration for Osteoporosis

I posted above that in addition to using the Marodyne LIV platform 3-4 times daily, I take a few supplements like low doses of calcium, boron, Turkey Tail mushrooms, etc. I also walk daily and do yoga. But I’ve been walking and doing yoga for years prior to my diagnosis 4 years go with osteoporosis. My endocrinologist was shocked when my DEXA showed about 9% bone density improvement in my femur and 5% in my lumbar. This is virtually unheard of without being on some sort of Rx for bone loss. She kept asking me if my primary care had put me on fosamax or something else and I told her “no”. So that’s one experience - since it doesn’t pose any risks to me and may be helping, I will continue to use it.

@z3french9 That is great news and amazing progress! Congratulations and yes, I can see why you want to continue. I changed my collagen to AlgaeCal and am working toward BHRT and testosterone therapy. I started testosterone about a month and a half ago and hopefully will start estrogen and progesterone as soon as I follow up with the gyno next month. Before I add anything else, I want to get an updated dexa to see if there is any improvement.
