Strong Bones Support Group

Posted , 13 users are following.

A few of us have been discussing ways to make our bones stronger without resorting to bisphosphonates.  This seems like a good place to carry on the conversation.

    Curious too about this seed that starts with "h" and the other unmentionable one....  biggrin   Someone message me what those are??!?!?

      The seed happens to share a name with a plant which has an unfortunate reputation of being used only by people who want to get high although there is a strong movement to decriminalize its use, and it is already an accepted and very safe medicine used in a number of diseases. It is also a useful fibre for making a coarse fabric not unlike jute.  There is an oil made from the leaves which is completely non-psychotropic, as are the seeds, and yet I cannot name the oil either or I get censored.  The oil is supposed to be very good for treating inflammation.

      Hi Evelyn, You can definitely get caliun and vitamin D3 as Adcal-D3. If you're in the UK you can get these on prescription but check the prices first.

      As far as I know, the K2-7 vitamin is only on it's own but there's plenty of sources with different values. There is no fixed dose of K2-7. Apparently it has a few days half-life so even with the 75 microgram dose that I get I can guarantee that my body will have an adequate supply.

      We mention K2-7 because without this, the calcium will only be clagged on your bones in miniscule amounts. K2-7 is essential and gives it a good start. You'll also need zinc and various other things. I have a link to a site which tells you about these things and I can private message it to you if you want it. The moderators won't let me put it on this forum.

      The moderators grabbed my post even though the only thing I mentioned was a composite of Calcium and vitamin D. I'll private message you.

      It just occured to me that being new here you may not know about private messages.

      You can access messages sent to you by following the notification email but if you want to send one, you need to click on the small grey envelope below one of the receivers posts star number.

      If you already are aware of this, just ignore this message.
