Is there a supplement that really works?

Posted by debbik @debbik, Nov 14, 2024

I was diagnosed 6 years ago with osteoporosis. I thought I was doing everything possible to build bone density but my latest bone density showed it got worse by 6%. I am taking a supplement called ‘bone-up’ which is supposed to be natural and has StimuCal. I’m wondering if there are better supplements out there that really help? Has anyone seen positive bone density results? If so, I would love to know what you are taking and doing. By the way, I’m 65, and try to be fairly active. Thank you.

Well as I said. I've been taking it for 8 months. My bones stopped aching, I'm back to doing housework I wasn't able to do before, not having the daily muscle spasms from just moving, etc. The dexascan showed a 12% improvement. I believe God has given us the ability to heal through food and not always through hard narcotics. You make a statement that is isn't doing anything for me but I guess the proof is in my dexascan and the results I'm feeling. It works for me. The side effects to many of these other drugs that you are on for the rest of your life - and the many people who testify they wish they had never gone on them - was enough for me to try it. I will continue this and now plan to incorporate a muscle building program and think I might be able to go back to pickle ball. Have no idea if it will work for anyone else can only say what it did for me. Have a nice day.

I agree….big pharm is not the only answer. I would love to know the women’s name that you are seeing and referenced since I am also going your route. I have some teeth issues and all the dentists and surgeons immediately ask “are you on osteo drugs”. Many drugs do cause long term affects and they don’t always show up until they do .
Please share with me the women’s name. Thank you and I believe you are taking the right path.
Not sure if everyone knows that the drug makers crates the dexa scan?
