They include: hai xiao piao (cuttlefish bone), long gu (fossilized bone), mu li (oyster shell), shi jue ming (abalone shell). Personally, I'm happy to pop a few Tums as my calcium supplement. I like their taste, like candy. Don't forget the value of weight-bearing exercise. When you stress the bones, they'll thicken up automatically. Also, there are some acupoints that influence the bonessuch as Da Zhu (big hammer) or UB 11. It is adjacent to the first thoracic vertabra (actually adjacent to its lower border). This T1 bone is larger than those below and thus gets the name of " big hammer " . There is also an ancient theory that says something to the effect that the Gall Bladder channel dominates bones. Not sure what the reason is for this, though. -al. -- , DAOM Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 Qigong. Exercise is the best. There are herbal formulas that can also likely help you. - " G SMALL " <gjsmalltt <Chinese Traditional Medicine > Friday, June 05, 2009 6:49 AM [Chinese Traditional Medicine] Brittle Bone Disease > > Anyone in this groups know of a treatment for brittle bone disease > commonly known as ostereoporosis? > > --- > > Post message address: Chinese Traditional Medicine > http://health.Chinese Traditional Medicine/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 I use a high vegetable diet, no dairy products, bone maximizer III, and strontium. Vitamin D is even more important than calcium. This program has improve results on a DEXA scan significantly. Alicia Johnson, NMD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
