"Significant increase in bone mineral density since previous study done in March 2018"
Those words were music to my ears. Back in 2018 I was diagnosed with osteoporosis and put on generic fosamax. I was a good soldier and took the medicine but after 2-3 weeks was so sick to my stomach on this medication that I stopped. I consulted with my GP and he wanted me to try Prolia. I said I wanted to see if I could get results using other methods and we agreed to a two year trial period. I did the following: First, found this supplement and took it 2x daily (recommended 3X daily but because I eat lunch in a busy office, I just knew I would not have it together to take it then.) Second, every AM started with large glass of water with lemon squeezed into it - google Dr. Pier Boutin, orthopedic surgeon. Third, started a regular and consistent exercise regime including jogging, walking with a weighted vest and doing push ups. I just got my results back from 2020 bone density report GREAT NEWS: "There has been stability or improvement in bone mineral density at the spine and hips since previous study and patient does not meet criteria for pharmacologic therapy." I am over 65 and have taken medication that has a correlation to bone density loss for almost 20 years, so to get these results without prescription bone meds is miraculous. I really hope this information helps another person.
