Hi Teri..
I was interested in the vibration plate since seeing a fascinating interview with the inventor. YouTube video by Margaret Martin (on her channel) called “Does Vibration Therapy Improve Osteoporosis “ .. sounded so promising and I do remember him saying there is a vibration frequency that is the limit ..after that it is useless…and it seemed so little!
The Algaecal… Is that the supplement I’ve seen advertised? Any info on the legitimacy? Goodness, the supplement industry is just the Wild West and unfortunately you have to dig ..thus I seek out sites to read stories from like minded individuals to help. I just got my diagnosis Saturday and have had 3 days of overload!
Also, FYI, Margaret Martin specializes in osteoporosis exercises..(and others… but this is her specialty now) I have started and enjoy so much.
I have enjoyed your input..and any info you have on the vibration machine.
Thanks! Barb

Hi @barbakp, I stopped using the high intensity vibration exerciser I was using (twice a day for nine months) after watching Margaret Martin's video on vibration plates exercisers. Both she and Sara Meeks endorse the Marodyne LIV, but it costs about $4k (last time I checked) so I'll stick with Dr. Fishman's yoga routine, and walking. I also have a stepper I should hop on once in a while, but I help my husband with his hip exercises. Not enough time!!! I don't know anything about Algaecal. I just heard about this study yesterday, posted on National Institute of Health, "Combination of Micronutrients for Bone (COMB) Study: Bone Density after Micronutrient Intervention" but I haven't read it yet. A physivcal therapist from Bellingham WA has a video on it, if you're interested. You'll have to search, I didn't make a note of it. Sorry!
