I took Reclast for 2 years and increased my spine bone density from a -4.5 to -4.1 in my spine.  I just finished my first year on Prolia and did not expect to get a big gain. I was shocked when my spine bone density increased to a minus 3.6. Left femoral neck increased from -2.4 to -2.2. Right femoral neck stayed the same at -2.5. Reflecting on what I did different after reading everything I could find, I began eating 5-6 prunes throughout the day, walked 3 miles 5 times a week, did a leg press machine and a pull down T-bar 4 times a week, made a fruit and kale smoothie daily with 1 scoop of Collagen in it, took 2 Triple Action Osteo-Biflex, 200 mcg Vitamin K2-Mk7, 250 mg Magnesium, 2000 IU Vitamin D, 1 Mature Multi Vitamin and ate or drank Calcium all throughout the day. I try to keep myself hydrated. I also have increased the amount of protein I eat to 60. I use 1/2 scoop of Vital Proteins (3 Types of collagen) and 1/2 scoop of Dr. Axe's (5 Types collagen). Read about prune studies.

pami, may I ask your age? You've made remarkable gains in what your doing.

I took Alendronate for 4 yrs, stopped in 2019 on med holiday but lost all gain over pandemic. I now walk 3 miles 5-6 days/week and just restarted gym weight machines. Although I haven't tried a leg press or pull down T-bar. I'm now looking into my diet and supplements. I know the benefit of prunes. I'm taking 3 a day, however, considering adding at least two more/day.

Are both Collagens - Collagen Peptide? Is Dr Axe's now called Ancient Nutrition? Is the Triple Action Osteo-Biflex the UCII collagen formula? What brand Vit K2-MK7, Magnesium, D and Mature multivitamin? You mention ate or drank calcium all throughout the day. What food and drink, all milk/dairy products?
