Has anyone purchased the Osteoporosis Reversal Program on the Save Our Better Bones website? https://saveourbones.com/osteoporosis-reversal

And if so, did you see positive results with DEXA scan?

Thank you,

No, but I do like some of the exercises she posts, and also information. Wary of spending money for something you can probably work out for yourself.

I agree with the feel of a hard core press to sell and will check out the workouts. Thank you!

My osteoporosis was reversed with the COMB protocol into osteopenia and I only took half the strontium citrate dose used in the study. I only gad used it for 1 1/2 years. Any improvement would help. Look at the study graphs which show their results before and after. There is another study from Duquesne University in the US which measured the bone metabolites. It uses less strontium but adds melatonin. I firget the name if this also successful study.

I add my bone density improved despite being too weak to exercise much. Calcium was by diet in both studies. My gut cannot tolerate any calciums on the market.

Thank you so much! The other study is called MOTS and has given the combination of melatonin, strontium, vitD and vitK the acronym MSDK. I'm so excited as those are the supplements I've been using however the melatonin only sporatically. Now I'll begin using 3mg nightly as suggested. The study used a 6 month trial. The improvements were in the areas of my concern, likely the most common . I'll continue on with the strontium and vits D&K as before. I have hope! Btw, my doctor has been of no help at all and I have found myself alone on this journey but not since I've found people like you willing to share your knowledge and experiences. 😀

I wasn't aware that melatonin was beneficial to bone density. Did the study say why this is so? I use melatonin almost every night to help with my sleep. I'm not really sold on strontium. I have multiple bottles of it. But I'm hesitant to use it. I can see that more people are using it though. Thank you for mentioning the melatonin

i googled Duequesne University and found the refered to study which can answer your questions. I don't seem to be able to include the link here.

[cardinalfan in reply to Reese4]

Thank You Very Much! I'll follow that path to Duequesne University.🙂

[Clevelandgal in reply to Reese4]

Hi, what amounts of each in the MSKD are you supposed to take daily per the MOTS study? Thanks!

[Kjdsg in reply to Karenjaninaz]

Thank you!

Hi Kjdsg, keep in mind that your bone density as measured by DXA is only one factor in your risk of breaking a bone. Other factors include age, family history, lifestyle, other medical conditions you have, and medicines you take. If you're in the U.S., I invite you to use the American Bone Health Fracture Risk Calculator to assess your overall risk. americanbonehealth.org/calc...

We recently revised and republished the Fracture Risk Calculator to add a question on diabetes.

[Kjdsg in reply to Mark_ABH]

Hi Mark, I checked out the link shared to determine fracture risk. Do you know why do they only ask for the femoral neck score? Thank you

[Mark_ABH in reply to Kjdsg]

I don't know off-hand but will ask!

[Met00 in reply to Mark_ABH]

That sounds strange, as the total hip score is considered a much more reliable measure of bone density than the femoral neck!

[lilo789 in reply to Met00]

Met00 You are quite correct!

"We focus on total hip BMD measurements in these investigations because BMD measurement at this site has been described as the best predictor of all types of hip fracture, is associated with low precision error, and represents an assessment of both cortical and trabecular bone." academic.oup.com/jcem/artic...

"Of the three central DXA examinations, precision is most difficult to achieve at the hip because of variability in positioning. The total hip assessment comprises several subregions (femoral neck, Ward’s region, trochanter, and shaft) and evaluates a larger sample, reducing error and giving greater precision.

It is therefore recommended that routinely the total hip BMD should be reported, in particular for serial assessments since the precision is greater than the femoral neck."
