How can I improve my bone density results
T&Z scores
Lumbar spine -1.8 and 0.6 BMD 0.786
Left total hip -2.0 & -0.1 BMD 0.697
Left neck -1.2 & 1.0 BMD 0.716
Are there vitamins I can take to improve?

@houls1 Make sure you are getting sufficient calcium and vitamin D3. Many people also take vitamin K2.

Weight-bearing exercise is important. Walking is NOT enough. Many people here recommend Dr. Lisa Moore's YouTube channel for osteoporosis exercises.

P.S. with those scores, you have osteopenia, not osteoporosis.
