Do your own research and see what makes sense is my suggestion. I am on the bone meds myself. After researching, I don't believe anything they are trying to sell you makes sense unless you are unable to google search yourself. Use Google Scholar and the NHI (National Health Institute) and ask your doctor for sources. The problem is that supplements don't go directly to building bones. I don't feel that anything I've read helps. If you need to pay someone so you will exercise, then maybe... Grifters and snake oil salesmen take advantage of people.

@loriesco, I agree. Ours is a pretty vulnerable population, and there’s so much confusion and so many conflicting opinions that few people feel confident about the best way to address the myriad concerns. It creates the perfect breeding ground for grifters and snake oil salesmen who capitalize on fear. At the same time, there are legitimate professionals and evidence-based approaches out there - but they can be hard to distinguish from the noise.
