    Hi Kathleen - it is important to keep up the intake of vitamin D which helps with the absorbtion of calcium. Milk, eggs, cheese contain calcium. Also, wieght bearing exercises help strengthen bones. Lifting weights is ideal - they don't have to be heavy. Light weights with more reps will do the trick.

      Thanks Wayne. I take vitamin D3 every day and it is checked in my blood tests. Vitamin K2 is great as it aims the calcium onto the bones.

      I also take magnesium but not every day.
