Thank you for your share.
In addition to all of the experiences that make up our individual bodies: oxalates, overactive parathyroid, cancer, stress, etc.
What I am realizing for me is that a healthy, optimally functioning digestive system is very important. I don't believe I am getting nutrients from even the healthiest foods, calcium and mineral supplements to my bones and the rest of my body and brain, if my digestive system is not working properly to break down, absorb and effectively release these elements into the body.

"optimally functioning digestive system is very important" could be a direct response from my sister who was a Registered Dietician for 30+ years (Michigan State and internship at Mass General). Because of her I'm on Tymlos as her advice was that anything that would disrupt or hurt the digestive system would prevent healing.
It is now on the record that there two of us with osteoporosis who believe that the digestive system is important!
