Tymlos success?

@hdeff I read about MBP too. I would like to try this route (plus exercise, etc.) before drugs; Tymlos was recommended by my bone specialist; I am considering it but I fear the side-effects.
I researched a bit on MBP. I have not found MBP in the US markets. I did find a site intended for US corps to contact a Japanese (where MBP is certified as a food substance and used by many with OP) firm. MBP is derived from whey protein. The Japanese firm does not sell to individuals. I can provide more info later if someone is interested (not handy at the moment). Has anyone else found a distributor of MBP? MBP contains two "ases" (such as lactase but the names escape me) that may be found in whey based protein powders. I have not found a protein powder in the US market that specifically had the two "ases" sited by the Japanese marketer. And from the research articles I read the ratio of the two ases is important. I will update if I find out more. Maybe this conversation needs to be in a new thread on MBP - or OP diet?

@rileyf Hello. My spinal score was -3.6...shocked, but not shocked, since I have had back pain for years, though without any fracture. I am 77, and the endocrinologist advised Tymlos, since I need to build bone, rather than just slow the loss. I had had a possible TIA, so Evenity was not an option, nor was Forteo. I took Tymlos for a month, and had an array of side effects, many of which eased or stopped over time, but some came later, and were significant enough to make me stop the drug . (Terrible fatigue and leg pains every evening, and the return of frequent headaches). Many people obviously have little or none of these, so I am not hear to say anything meant to be a generalized truth. But I do think that risk and benefit always need to be weighed, but especially if one is older. For me, to take a drug that would have me feeling like that for an indefinite time (two years??) was not something I am willing to do. I do not minimize the seriousness of my osteoporosis, and am exploring other options, and taking extra precautions. I don't know if this helps at all. I just feel strongly that each individual's overall health and stage of life need to be key factors here. It is also disturbing to me that doctors can disagree so widely on this subject. As a retired nurse, it seems that there should be more uniform guidelines by now. Wishing you success on whatever path you choose.

@anatomary
Hello, Source Naturals sells MBP. It seems to be 40 mg.
I'm currently taking Tymlos, HRT and fortibone collagen and don't want to add any more variables to the mix at present, but perhaps when I'm done.

@lbrown742 should we know what MBP is cause I don't
