mother diagnosed with osteoporosis

[Guest guest]

My mother who is 53 years old has just been diagnosed with osteoporosis. She

recently had a benign tumor removed from her thyroid after blood tests revealed

elevated calcium levels and kidney disfunction. She was also sent in for a bone

density scan which resulted in this diagnosis. She is scared to death as am I.

My request is for any insight into natural treatment for osteoporosis. I do not

want them putting her on boniva or other big pharma treatments until I know

there are alternatives. She does take lythium and tofranil for bipolar disorder

and has since her 20s. Any help is greatly appreciated!!! Loving this group and

so glad I found it. Love, Health, and Peace to all. Namaste' Sheree

The fact that your mother has excess calcium suggests a magnesium deficiency.

She needs to take magnesium taurate in amounts at least 400 mg/day. Also, the

thyroid issue is a sign of an iodine deficiency. Take Iodoral (Lugol's solution

in pill form) at 13 mg/day initially. If no severe detox symptoms occur, then

ramp up to 50 mg/day for full body sufficiency. After that, return to 13 mg/day.

When taking iodine, it is also advisable to take selenium, in the amount of 200

mcg/day. You can easily achieve this by eating two Brazil nuts per day.

I was diagnosed with osteopenia (the beginning of osteoporosis) and signed up

for a strength training exercise class. After only nine months my bone density

scan has returned to normal. I don't know if it is too late for strength

training with the osteoporosis dx, but it certainly cannot hurt. Good luck to

your mom. Janet
