Guest guest Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Good posts - one other supplement you can take is: Strontium. Strontium Bone-Maker. Strontium aids in building up new bone and also strengthens existing bone - historical footnote, Stronium was fed to the gladiators of Rome to strengthen their bones. Does NOT inhibit build up of new bone which is where the Bisphosphonate drugs fall down... And yes, correct. Bisphosphonate drugs 'can' cause ONJ, Osteonecrosis of the jaw: jaw death, phossi-jaw! There are a number of court cases in the pipe line on ONJ: check it out, Bisphosphonates - side effects and Bisphosphonates - legal cases. Some papers only stress the IV-Bisphposphpnates, but this is incorrect, more and morre cases are being reported on oral Bis drugs causing ONJ! It pays to read up on all that you can find, but don't bother with the PR papers as 'written' by the pharmaceutical cos - you won't get the correct time of day there! Another pointer. Anyone on those Bis drugs are advised to inform their dentist beforre ANY invasive dental work - such dental work can and has been known to lead to jaw problems in those persons taking the Bis drugs! Forewarned. In addition. For Europeans out there, a drug or compound, on the market and available by prescription, is Protelos Strontium Ranelate: been available on the market over here for some time now, 3/4 years? Well, how to ruin a good compound, because it is filled out, bulked with, Aspartame...and you don't want to be anywhere near Aspartame or indeed ANY sweetener (stuff is highly toxic, a by-product of formaldehyde. Hence to keep away from'sodas' - i.e. those fizzy drinks that are laced with sweeteners. Also, learn to read lables, these sweeteners are even added to yogurts! Anything that claims to be sugar free, or 'light' PLEASE read the labels for sweetenres. IF you read sweeteners, of any description, steer well clear of that product.) A new compound is being formulated by a US company, Strontium Manelate. Still undergoing trials - successful so far. But, unable to ascertain IF their compound is rendered useless by the addition of the darn Aspartame or other sweetener. (A totally unecessary additon. Daft.) I myself use Strontium Bone-Maker, available over-the-counter, both in Europe and in Nth America. Protelos Strontium Ranelate is not 'yet' FDA approved (too far into the pocket of Big pHarma...!!) But the Strontium Manelate should be released sometime 2009/2010. Meantime take the OTC Strontium Citrate/Strontium Bone-Maker. As to side effects, there 'are' some side effects to the *Protelos Strontium Ranelate*, can cause some heart problems: but, those problems will be due to the Aspartame... There are no reported side effects to Strontium per se, i.e. Strontium Citrate/Strontium Bone-Maker.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 I was at risk for breaking bones as well. I went to our very own Loretta Lanphier;s site, www.oasisadvancedwellness.com and looked up osteoporosis.. I take calcium orotate, etc. I no longer have osteoporosis.
