The most important point to take away from this article is that flexible bones rarely break when shocked or impacted (a change which is largely due to declining hormone levels) . The problem with bisphosphonates is that they make bone denser but less flexible and more brittle, and hence more likely to break when exposed to impacts.
Yes. I've noticed the hand waving, nothing-to-see-here of the companies about that occurring, often with a relatively short time of commencing the medication. It's mentioned in the information paper that comes with the box, or the printout from the pharmacy.
I've been seeing gleeful little articles here and there saying calcium and D3 expose women to "increased cardiovascular risks." My understanding is taking K2 with calcium and D3 keeps the calcium from ending up adding to atherosclerosis plaques.
Can you explain more? I eat fish or meat three times a day because I feel much better when I do so. And have you read about GHB, which is present in small quantities in meat and red wine?
Been taking Vitamin D for about 50 years -- my last practitioner liked a high Vitamin D count, 50 rather than 30 -- and have never been poisoned. But one must understand that D is oil-soluble and you can take too much; I take 55,000 units weekly.
I never believe numbers. How do they get the sun into those little capsules? Supplements are a scam. Nutrition and sunlight came before Rockefeller medicine. Only recently did I toss all semplements.
And if you're disabled like I am, you don't spend enough time in the sun. Adelle Davis thought getting D from the sun was basically nonsense due to the fact that we wear clothes and bathe frequently.
I live in the northeast where sunlight is limited during the winter.
My Vitamin D level was barely above 20, never mind the fact that I supplemented. I will be checking my level in another month; my expectation is that I will be -- finally -- in the normal range having faithfully used my Sperti Sunlamp as directed for many months.
My understanding is that is due to stopping the constant process of bone health: Your bones are continuously deconstructing then reconstructing in the natural process. I've always liked dairy and take a daily calcium supplement, and my bones are tough! I've fallen off a number of horses -- inevitable when you ride a lot -- last time I was 5-1/2 feet in the air with the horse running, fell on hard ground and rocks, did not break a single bone. (Fell off a horse when I was 16, heard my skull crack, never had any problem from being concussed.)
While avoiding these medications is important to avoid critical issues, one of the biggest points to reinforce is that resistance training improves overall bone density at any age.
They can twist into "greenstick" fractures, however, as happened to my femur when I was using borrowed skis with too-tight Miller bindings. A Miller binding on my own ski had come loose when I went over a high jump (actually a rock formation) a week prior, which broke the ski when the wind blew it back on the safety strap. Short moral: don't use Miller bindings, and be sure your bindings are correctly adjusted. But who can afford to (downhill) ski these days?
Bisphosphonates are just more expensive versions of fluoride. No need for either of them.
I have prepared taxes for many widowed or divorced senior women over the last 18 years. In the 2010s, big pharma came out with a drug called Boniva, pushed in ads by actress Sally Field. I recall several years when this drug, and others like it, were pushed through scare tactics and many of my clients took them. During the tax preparation interview process, I'd ask them about their year, and I cannot tell you how many of them related stories of being hospitalized for some length of time due to fractures (hip and/or leg) or other bodily responses related-to-these-bone-strenghtening-drugs. Many of them figured it out, others not so much. I broke my leg in 2011, slipped on a musty piece of wet wood, and immediately I was besieged with medical professionals telling me I needed to get bone scans done. I never did. The orthopedist who I visited during the healing of my leg was a real card, about 70 years old with decades of treating fractures. Mine was a simple one. He triple booked his appointments and then every visit would insist on x-raying my leg to see how it was healing (to bill insurance). The X-ray machine was as old as the hills (I suspect it was a discard from the hospital), and I recall a bucket next to it to catch water dripping off the machine! As an asset, the machine - I am sure - had been fully depreciated years (maybe a decade) ago, but they kept pushing this machine on patients and as an income source. There's pockets of profit everywhere in this uniquely American health care system.
Believe me, it's not just America. I'm in Australia and work for cardiac specialists. It's disappointing to realise how driven by the dollar most of them are.
My former plumber was put on statins and fortunately for him a friend told him his doc had done the same thing and the statins caused tremendous pain. My plumber was also having tremendous pain, told his doc he was done and then asked her if she was getting kickbacks!
You know it is interesting you mention the radiation. Because a year later, after my broken leg in 2011, I went in to the optometrist office to have my vision checked because I was having trouble seeing. I had been to this same office in 2011 and had received a clean bill of health (but still needed a little corrective lenses). In 2012, the optometrist practically crawled into my left eye. I asked what was going on and she said I had a cataract that was very large in that eye and she recommended I see an eye physician. Three weeks later, I saw an eye doctor and he crawled into my right eye. I said "My left eye is the problem". and he said "NO. your right eye is worse than your left eye." In a year, I had developed very aggressive posterior cataracts that I was told if they weren't taken care of, within the next year I'd "see only shadows". I was told that three things produce such rapid cataracts: one was steroids which I was not on. The others were diabetes and exposure to massive radiation. I also had just used the 360 degree X-ray machine at the dentist's office (something I will never do again.). So double whammy. At age 54 I had double cataract surgery at a cost of several thousand dollars (because Medicare covers them but I was not yet 65.) The System gets paid to break you...and the System gets paid to fix you.
That's no coincidence. Or I should say, if I were in your shoes I'd have concluded the X-rays did it. Of course you can't prove it, but... And I am really sorry you went through that because it sounded not just expensive but frightening.
And think about the radiation from mammos.. Which I had every year for 12 years because I stupidly trusted my gyn. Well they insisted if I wanted hrt I had to have those.. you put your tits in a wringer in all good faith, and then find out you probably got hit with radiation damage! I could cry.
I'm thinking of refusing the dental X-ray, which I've had once a year. I never get cavities so the hell with it.
The dentist I use - I've had to specify, no fluoride treatment for my daughter or me at each visit. And each visit, I push for no x-rays, they want to do them yearly but they will only delay 2 years at the most. Damaging the eyes is not something I have considered before! Ugh!! Sounds like returning to a holistic dentist is the best way to go.
I have a standing order with my dentist... absolutely NO xrays ... unless absolutely necessary -- and I need the necessary part explained to me before hand
Not just ionizing radiation, but also UV. Wear sunglasses. The lenses of your eyes and even the skin immediately surrounding your eyes make a negligible contribution to vitamin D. Despite the cornea covering the iris, somehow people with brown eyes are more resistant to cataract formation.
The biggest improvement in X-rays was the elimination of film and replacing it with electronic scanners that are far more sensitive and have better resolution than any film ever did.
Just a slight warning - Vit K2-MK-7 (which is the type in most supplements) can cause side effects including anxiety, insomnia, heart palpitations and allergic reactions. I was taking it for a few years and began getting heart palpitations, esp in the morning. Once i stopped the K2-MK-7, they went away and haven't returned. The safer Vit K2 is K2-MK-4, which i learned from a Weston A Price advocate. Price referred to it as his all-important "Activator X". It is found in the milkfat of animals eating green grass, so now i just rely on good grass-fed dairy products.
That's good to know about the insomnia, anxiety and palpitations from that type of k2. So many non psychotropic drugs cause psychic symptoms! You find out the hard way.
That's not my area of medicinal chemistry specialty, so I can't define the specific structural differences, but I gather "typical psychotics" are first generation, and were largely replaced because of higher risk of movement disorders with typical antipsychotics. Metabolic syndrome seems to have worsened with the atypicals.
I take no issue with your warning. I take an K7 product from Mercola and don’t have the symptoms you write about . I did a search and the K7 is supposed to be better for bone issues because it circulates longer in your blood. You have to have more doses throughout the day with K4.
Yes, Lisa, i understand your concern about blood levels of K2. With many things i do trust Dr. Mercola's judgment, but here i differ. Although it may be true that K2-MK7 stays in the blood longer, this may actually be because it is not able to enter the organs and tissues as easily as animal-sourced K2-MK4 (if at all).
According to some sources, MK4 from animal foods is quickly absorbed and then stored in many tissues and organs including the brain, bones, testes, pancreas, kidneys, placenta, eyes and other tissues; whereas MK7 is not stored in the organs.
In addition, Japanese studies on MK4 and MK7 for osteoporosis and bone fractures show that although MK7 increased bone density, it did not prevent bone fractures, whereas MK4 increased bone density and prevented fractures. This is why MK4 was approved by the Japanese Ministry of Health for the Treatment of Osteoporosis and the Bone Pain cause by Osteoporosis. MK7 was not approved.
Calcium tablets INCREASE problems, but are prescribed regularly, as is dairy products, which do likewise. The way to have one's bones match the health of the rest of the body, is to stay active, eat plenty of veggies, stay away from dairy and supplements which use calcium carbonate as a carrier, drink plenty of water, get a little sunshine each morning, and keep spiritually tuned by reading the KJV Bible every day, and be thankful to be alive and blessed with the promises of God. That's the recipe for living a normal life.
I wouldn't bother myself with that concern. Unless you swallow and not spit out! lol
There is a much more sinister ingredient in most tooth pastes: Fluoride. The calcium carbonate, if it's in toothpaste will probably be acting as a grit, like ground rice hulls, to aid in the removal of plaque.
I am very skeptical about Big pharma, they are responsible for keeping people sick for profit, they are crooks, very evil, they will be dealt with, they hide alot of cures, for profit'🖕😳💯
Thank you for another indepth article fill of valuable information. I just wanted to mention of work of the late Walter Last, a German chemist who immigrated to New Zealand .He advocated a clan diet, taking supplemental minerals and herbs to treat many common maladies, but perhaps his most important work was advocating the use of borax, a cheap household cleaning agent to supply boron, a mineral that has largely been leached out of the soil by modern agriculture. Today, fruits are still a good source of boron, but it is still a good idea to supplement. His research is summarized in a brief essay entitle "the Borax Conspiracy," which is available online. Borax is great for teeth as well.A box of Twenty Mule Team borax will aet you back about sux dollars and contains a lifetimes worth of boron. If you can't find that, boric acid is available as an insecticide ( in it 's pure form ) and also can be taken internally Big pharma would mich rather have you take their expensive ,nasty and harmful drugs and spreads the lue that borax is dangerous.
And, another not approved substance I rely upon for relieving pain is DMSO. It is basically a form of sulfur,. Derived from tree fiber. Cheap, effective and labelled dangerous ( I even drink it).
Veterinary use as topical joint anti inflammatory is common. It works very well according to a friend who was doubting it he treated alternate knees on his elderly horse and could see the difference.
Yes! I actually have a MS in Vet Science. Many many uses, arthritis, soft tissue...IV for Wobblers. Would be used more often if there wasn't more money to be made selling Equioxx and PRP...
Diluted to 70 percent in distilled water and applied to sore muscles. I've never found a trustworthy source on how to take orally. Hoping AMD will discuss
There was a doctor who wrote a book about taking DMSO. He lived in Florida--where I had first heard about DMSO in the early 1980's from a gambler who hung around the track. It was the go-to remedy for horses. Anyway, the doc recommended taking a teaspoon or so initially, rhen working up to more. It is a solvent afterall so you need to be careful.I have taken it internally for stubborn UTIs, they use DMSO for cystitis I think it is only approved for this condition.
I have taken it internally many times, but not in a regular basis.You need to put it in orange juice, rhe taste is awful !
Nature's Gift 99.9% DMSO from Amazon. Dilute to 70% with distilled water in a glass spray bottle. Dilute to 50% if using above the waist. Shake vigorously before each use. Apply to clean, dry skin. Do not mix with other topical. You can buy already diluted DMSO on Amazon but it's much more expensive.
During childhood, ca 1960's - 1970's my vet prescribed sulfur powder for my cat who kept coming home with battle bites. Sulfur worked quickly. Been using sulfur powder for cats/dogs/self, ever since.
Excellent article about bone health . When they first started raising chickens in tin barns on a production basis and we’re overfed 25% of the chickens were breaking their legs. The veterinarian scratched their heads and realize they’re missing sunshine and converting cholesterol to vitamin D, which is an essential component of bone health they solve the problem by adding calciferol to the chicken feed and lo and behold their bones didn’t break anymore! It is a balance between maintaining good nutritional intake without trace toxins
and exercising to maintain body symmetry. Two good resources to learn more are www.grassrootshealth.net and www.vitamindwiki.com. My view is if everyone in the United States had a blood level of 50 NG or more of vitamin D we would reduce medical cost by about $1 trillion easily. Oooops! Can’t grow the business that way.!
My 78 year old wife has been on Prolia (or something similar) for the last 6-7 years. In the last two years, she suffered broken bones in each arm/wrist. So much for strengthening the bones. She wants to quit this now. No more as she is scheduled for the last of two injections in December. The doctors don't know nothing about nothing. She pays $325/injection and the price keeps going up and the results are ridiculous.
Your wife just can’t quit Prolia. Stopping Prolia causes Prolia rebound which is increased bone loss that accelerates then sky rockets when the drug is stopped which can cause multiple spinal fractures from such minor things as rolling over in bed. The rebound can last from 30-44 months. She must relay onto another bone density drug from the same class of drugs. Please have your wife join the Facebook group Prolia Side Effects. They have a wealth of information that can be printed off. There is good chance her doctor doesn’t know anything about rebound. She must do a lot of research about this. I’m sorry I ever agreed to take Prolia and am now on Reclast which also has many side effects. These bone density drugs are a nightmare. Between Covid and my experience with Prolia I’ve lost faith in most doctors and drugs.
The most important point to take away from this article is that flexible bones rarely break when shocked or impacted (a change which is largely due to declining hormone levels) . The problem with bisphosphonates is that they make bone denser but less flexible and more brittle, and hence more likely to break when exposed to impacts.
I read of woman taking Boniva or Fosomax and breaking her leg by stepping off of a curb.
Yes. I've noticed the hand waving, nothing-to-see-here of the companies about that occurring, often with a relatively short time of commencing the medication. It's mentioned in the information paper that comes with the box, or the printout from the pharmacy.
I've been seeing gleeful little articles here and there saying calcium and D3 expose women to "increased cardiovascular risks." My understanding is taking K2 with calcium and D3 keeps the calcium from ending up adding to atherosclerosis plaques.
Yes, I believe this is well supported by studies. I take 3 D pills and one K2 and reduced calcium supplements.
Red meat is the best calcium supplement.
Can you explain more? I eat fish or meat three times a day because I feel much better when I do so. And have you read about GHB, which is present in small quantities in meat and red wine?
About GHB: https://substack.com/home/post/p-144785811
Cooked spinach?
D pills are poison.
Only the sun.
Been taking Vitamin D for about 50 years -- my last practitioner liked a high Vitamin D count, 50 rather than 30 -- and have never been poisoned. But one must understand that D is oil-soluble and you can take too much; I take 55,000 units weekly.
That's why doctors "practice" medicine.
I never believe numbers. How do they get the sun into those little capsules? Supplements are a scam. Nutrition and sunlight came before Rockefeller medicine. Only recently did I toss all semplements.
Can you maintain a 25(OH)D blood level between 60 and 80 ng/ml with a suntan? Most people cannot.
All numbers have been manufactured to sell the poisons.
And if you're disabled like I am, you don't spend enough time in the sun. Adelle Davis thought getting D from the sun was basically nonsense due to the fact that we wear clothes and bathe frequently.

I have long suspected that.
Consider buying a Sperti Sunlamp (https://www.sperti.com/product/sperti-vitamin-d-light-box/) Note the reviews and comments.
I live in the northeast where sunlight is limited during the winter.
My Vitamin D level was barely above 20, never mind the fact that I supplemented. I will be checking my level in another month; my expectation is that I will be -- finally -- in the normal range having faithfully used my Sperti Sunlamp as directed for many months.
I know someone who is dealing with now lifelong bone problems because of Fosomax too

Try asking a cardiologist about what evidence supports routine use of Statin drugs. Lots of squirming.
Their kickbacks support it.
My former plumber was put on statins and fortunately for him a friend told him his doc had done the same thing and the statins caused tremendous pain. My plumber was also having tremendous pain, told his doc he was done and then asked her if she was getting kickbacks!
Exactly what everyone needs to do ... nobody should just agree with whatever the doctor says
Here, in 'Merka most are probably too ignorant to have enough guilt to squirm.

I hope that rickety X-ray machine didn't put out more rays than called for. The cumulative radiation damage would worry me.

Mashing, too. Use thermography instead.
Not just ionizing radiation, but also UV. Wear sunglasses. The lenses of your eyes and even the skin immediately surrounding your eyes make a negligible contribution to vitamin D. Despite the cornea covering the iris, somehow people with brown eyes are more resistant to cataract formation.
Don't wear sunglasses.
Your eyes need the light.
Correct you are. Sunlight is beneficial to eyes. Wear a hat, but do not block your eyes completely with sunglasses.
Probably your pineal and other parts of the brain as well.
And you don't need to see until you get cataract surgery. /s Yes, I red the Popular Science article about the man with arthritis.
Link to article?
Tnx
Wearing sunglasses deprives the pineal gland of the information it need to properly modulate the melanin in your skin.
Plus they're annoying as hell.

The biggest improvement in X-rays was the elimination of film and replacing it with electronic scanners that are far more sensitive and have better resolution than any film ever did.
Hope it's properly collimated. Photographic film requires much higher exposure than digital detectors.
I fear doctors. Hence a big reason why I eat organic... take supplements... exercise... and get plenty of sleep.

Bone strength, not bone density, decreases Osteoporosis
Vitamin D increases bone strength with no side effects.
https://vitamindwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page_id=15413
Fosomax increases both bone density and profits
Only if taken with vit. k2
Just a slight warning - Vit K2-MK-7 (which is the type in most supplements) can cause side effects including anxiety, insomnia, heart palpitations and allergic reactions. I was taking it for a few years and began getting heart palpitations, esp in the morning. Once i stopped the K2-MK-7, they went away and haven't returned.

That's good to know about the insomnia, anxiety and palpitations from that type of k2. So many non psychotropic drugs cause psychic symptoms! You find out the hard way.
And atypical antipsychotics cause both metabolic syndrome and schizophrenia.
What are typical antipsychotics?

Calcium carbonate seems to be commonly in toothpastes.... should we avoid it there too?
Check out Uncle Harry’s tooth powder! It has helped my teeth and gums. Love how it makes my teeth feel after brushing!!!
Thanks! I recently purchased some tooth powder (albeit not Uncle Harry's) but haven't tried it yet.
I wouldn't bother myself with that concern. Unless you swallow and not spit out! lol

Do you floss with sandpaper?
Pretty sound advice.

Jim Humble discusses ingesting DMSO as part of one of his protocols (with Miracle Mineral Solution).
Could you please share where you purchase it. Also do you dilute it yourself, or it already comes as ready to use?
Nature's Gift 99.9% DMSO from Amazon. Dilute to 70% with distilled water in a glass spray bottle. Dilute to 50% if using above the waist. Shake vigorously before each use. Apply to clean, dry skin. Do not mix with other topical. You can buy already diluted DMSO on Amazon but it's much more expensive.
Thanks!
During childhood, ca 1960's - 1970's my vet prescribed sulfur powder for my cat who kept coming home with battle bites. Sulfur worked quickly. Been using sulfur powder for cats/dogs/self, ever since.
My ND always advocated for borax water. Search for "Earth Clinic Borax" On YT.
Rex Newham... just saying.
Same with sodium bicarbonate.
what is a clan diet?
I'm glad you asked; I was wondering the same thing!

How much do you take?
Till Death Valley? The dose makes the poison.
Sounds like South American Cats Claw
It's amazing how the medical profession ignores magnesium and focuses on calcium like a cult.
Calcium is hard and leads to brittleness when in excess.
Magnesium is a softer metal and key for many processes... If only doctors knew or cared to know.
There's other influences like pregnenolone and issues of excess estrogen.
Here's an awesome website that goes into many studies that show how modern medicine is still stuck in the past.

don't forget boron.. or borax.. that is the way to get the calcium / magnesium balance correct.
Oh yes! And it's amazing that magnesium and boron are known to be great additives in engine oil for high stress protection of bearings!
Too much calcium in spinach raw.
Boil first.
Excellent article about bone health . When they first started raising chickens in tin barns on a production basis and we’re overfed 25% of the chickens were breaking their legs. The veterinarian scratched their heads and realize they’re missing sunshine and converting cholesterol to vitamin D, which is an essential component of bone health they solve the problem by adding calciferol to the chicken feed and lo and behold their bones didn’t break anymore! It is a balance between maintaining good nutritional intake without trace toxins
and exercising to maintain body symmetry. Two good resources to learn more are www.grassrootshealth.net and www.vitamindwiki.com. My view is if everyone in the United States had a blood level of 50 NG or more of vitamin D we would reduce medical cost by about $1 trillion easily. Oooops! Can’t grow the business that way.!
it's not just the tin barns. Chickens are naturally carnivores (insects), yet they're fed vegetarian diets (often of GMO grain). Insane.
My 78 year old wife has been on Prolia (or something similar) for the last 6-7 years. In the last two years, she suffered broken bones in each arm/wrist. So much for strengthening the bones. She wants to quit this now. No more as she is scheduled for the last of two injections in December. The doctors don't know nothing about nothing. She pays $325/injection and the price keeps going up and the results are ridiculous.
Your wife just can’t quit Prolia. Stopping Prolia causes Prolia rebound which is increased bone loss that accelerates then sky rockets when the drug is stopped which can cause multiple spinal fractures from such minor things as rolling over in bed. The rebound can last from 30-44 months. She must relay onto another bone density drug from the same class of drugs. Please have your wife join the Facebook group Prolia Side Effects. They have a wealth of information that can be printed off. There is good chance her doctor doesn’t know anything about rebound. She must do a lot of research about this. I’m sorry I ever agreed to take Prolia and am now on Reclast which also has many side effects. These bone density drugs are a nightmare. Between Covid and my experience with Prolia I’ve lost faith in most doctors and drugs.
OMG that is truly shocking about prolia. Thank you for sharing your experience, and so sorry.
