Ingrid - I Concur with you about the hefty Bisphosphonate drugs that are

scripted for Osteoporosis, but, perhaps you have not heard of Strontium

Ranelate? Strontium has been around for several hundred years and was used by

the

Roman Gladiators to strengthen their bones for combat! Protelos, 'Strontium

Ranelate' is not 'yet' recognised by the FDA but, IS recognised as a first line

treatment for Osteoporosis in Europe.

 

One problem with the Protelos, 'S. Ranelate' is, that it is bulked out with

Aspartame! Totally unecessary and goodness knows WHY - daft! Made by

Servier, a French company in Neuilly - outside Paris. A Google will bring up

1670

'hits', here's one:-

New, long term data presented at the 34th European Symposium on Calcified

Tissues (ECTS) this week underscore the unmatchable, long-term efficacy and

quality of life improvement offered by the anti-osteoporotic treatment,

Protelos® (strontium ranelate). These data also provide evidence to show that

Protelos has clinical benefit in a broad range of osteoporotic patients,

irrespective of their level of bone turnover and severity of their disease.

 

Protelos is a new anti-osteoporosis treatment with a unique mode of action

both increasing bone formation and decreasing bone resorption. For the first

time, new data have shown sustained, five year efficacy against vertebral and

non-vertebral fractures, including hip fractures.1 Protelos is also the first

treatment to show an improvement in the quality of life of patients with

vertebral postmenopausal osteoporosis over four years. (more...)

 

Now, in place of the Aspartame laden Protelos SR, one can obtain Strontium

Bone-Maker - it is the Strontium that is the efficacious ingredient. This is

obtainable in the the USA and in Canada. I am on the Strontium Bone-Maker:

am scripted for the Protelos SR - the hospital where my rheumatologist

consults at, are finding too many side effects with patients taking the

Bisphosphonate drugs!! - but will not have Aspartame/sweeteners in the house

(dreadful

toxic stuff - a real good product ruined by sweeteners).

 

Getta hold of the Strontium Bone-Maker: take Magnesium Citrate and Vit-D,

eat a good diet, to include leaft green vegetables (spinach, collards, and

broccoli are all excellent) and bannanas, and, ensure that you take exercise

and

do gentle weight bearing exercises. You'll be right <smile>
