Undecided choice of drugs for Osteoporosis

I have followed your wonderful advice regarding a natural osteoporosis path. I researched collagen, Calciven, broth plus strength training exercise. I found another product called Algae Cal. I wonder if that would be better than Calciven?? I did have some heartburn from Collagen using one scoop. I’m starting over with one tsp so hopefully my body will adjust. I really want to give the natural methods a try. Since I’m 80 I don’t want to experience some of complications by adding new drugs to my body. I declined Fosamax, Prolia
and Reclast. Thank you for following a natural path.

I also declined the above drugs. I am taking Calciven and looking at Life Extension Bone Restore Elite. .y Dr wants me on 1200 mg calcium and 2000 IU vit D. I am concerned about taking that much as a problem has been shown with CVD and calcium. Also too much vit D can be toxic over time. I like the amounts in these 2 supplements as well as getting it from my diet. Has anyone any thoughts
on which one is better?
My last dexa scan a month ago took me from osteoporosis to osteopenia but I haven't been on Calciven long enough to make a difference. I work hard lifting in our barn which helps too.
