For years now I have been struggling with osteopenia and now osteoporosis. I always thought I could handle it with food. Eating more greens, of the dark leafy kind, and I would be good. With each bone density my numbers kept going down.
My OBGYN called me a couple years ago with urgency in her voice that I had to start taking something for it. As I started to read up on these drugs the more I was convinced not to take them. The side effects were daunting. This is what I found.
- Tymlos – can cause bone cancer. During animal drug testing it caused some rats to develop a bone cancer called Osteosarcoma.
- Fosamax – spontaneous fractures of the thigh bone. They knew and were supposed to put it on the label. They’ve been sued for not doing it.
- Prolia – disintegration of the jaw and atypical femur fractures.
I reached out to a colleague of mine and asked her what she would recommend. That’s when I heard of Algaecal – all natural ingredients. I went on their site, read up on it and listened to many testimonials. Check it out.
Algaecal Plus – 16 Bone-Supporting Nutrients
A plant-based calcium with 16 bone-supporting nutrients. Clinical studies demonstrate these nutrients will not only protect your bones from age-related weakening – they’ll actually make your bones stronger.
Strontium Boost – Triple Your Bone Density Increases
Strontium Boost naturally accelerates the bone-building process. In clinical studies, participants who took this natural product alongside AlgaeCal Plus tripled their bone density increases.
Here’s the good news…..
I’ve been taking it for the past year. I just had my bone density done – my numbers have improved significantly!
While I am still osteoporotic my numbers are now on the upswing. Yay!! I will most likely be on this for the long term and I’m ok with that. I like the odds a lot!
Here’s their website. Check it out for yourself.
