What helps improve osteoporosis without medication?

I was on Prolia and stopped in October and have been taking supplements, exercise and healthy diet. Just one comment about supplements. Be careful. Look for good ones (usually not over the counter). I have a friend who was taking centrum silver and developed a bowel obstruction. She got a colonic and it washed out a bunch of centrum silver pills still in tact in her intestinal tract that created a blockage and they were even able to read the marking on the pills. They didn’t even dissolve and caused her lots of problems. I order from Ancient Nutrition and Life Extension who I’ve researched and trust.

I've seen 5 osteoporosis specialists. You can't stop prolia. You must take something else or your bone density can plummet. My friend stopped to do dental work. She went from mild osteoporosis to severe osteoporosis. She's currently having blood and urine tests to asses what meds she needs to be on.

@username26 we are told by docs that we cannot just stop Prolia; it needs to be followed up by another med to avoid a quick drop in bone density and increase in fracture risk. Are you taking any other medication?
Apparently this is not true of Reclast because it stays in the system. Some people follow Prolia with Reclast or other biphosphonate, and then take a break and do natural methods, I was told.
