I had read of certain risks in taking Fosamax for osteoporosis, so I
stopped taking it over two years ago.
Instead, I started taking Jarrow Formulas Bone-Up Promotes bone density. For me, it has slightly improved my osteoporosis according to a
bone scan I had done in 2011.
I do not know if this Jarrow Formulas Bone-Upp roduct really works for strengthening bones in
the long run, but I do know that it has great side effects of bowel
consistency and settled digestive system. That would be enough for
taking it, but the bone density potential is also there. I will have another bone scan in a few
months, and hope to see further improvement.
Also, in June of 2012, I
fell off a step stool on my front concrete steps and injured my back and
leg quite severely, but I did not break any bones! If I didn't break a
bone in that fall, something must be working. I also take New
Chapter's Every Woman's Once Daily Whole Food Multi Vitamins + Herbs +
Minerals.
