There are so many different natural no drug programs which offer conflicting advice. It’s overwhelming! I just was diagnosed a with osteoporosis (after being very close with osteopenia). I haven’t read one thing that convinces me to start the drugs.

I’m also following the concept that the Dexa is not accurate and that it doesn’t prove bone fragility. That said, I sure don’t want to risk fracture. I’m trying to avoid the twisting and bending which was part of my yoga routine for years.

I’ve started an online osteo exercise program, increasing my walking while wearing my weighted vest, and using a vibration plate.

As far as nutrition, I’m sorting out the programs and studies. What I’ve gotten so far is that getting nutrition through foods is best. Vitamin D from the sun. Natural sources for calcium not sources with added calcium like OJ. I take many supplements which maybe are not helping, or maybe my Tscore would have been worse without them. I don’t think the researchers know yet the exact nutritional needs to increase bone strength. It’s sure not pop a calcium pill, which is what most doctors tell you.

I’m interested in hearing success stories. Sending ❤️ to everyone.
