All the drugs hijack your immune system. Plus, once you start down the drug path, they will definitely keep you on it, or else you'll lose any ground you may gain....only now your bones will be more brittle than before you started. Our bones regenerate every 10 years....so I'd encourage you to research natural ways of building bone density....diet, hydration, exercise, supplementation. We can help our bodies do what they are intended to do and do it without drugs! There's a great Facebook group, Osteoporosis Natural Remedies....a wonderful support group that will encourage you in your natural protocol journey. I'm personally doing OsteoStrong, taking a high quality supplement line, eating super healthy for bone health, and in less than 3 months already am seeing positive results.
