Another cause of declining bone health

[HeronNS]

Have just come across this article:

link.springer.com/article/1...

which links SARS-CoV-2 infection to increased osteoclast activity and consequently increased risk of osteoporosis.

(Also, please note this info about the production of the article, a statement near the beginning: "This is one of many articles evaluating the utility of using AI to write scientific review articles on musculoskeletal topics [1]. The first draft of this review was written by humans and ChatGPT4.0 whereby humans selected literature references, but ChatGPT 4.0 completed the writing. Importantly, the article was edited and carefully checked for accuracy resulting in a final manuscript which was significantly different from the original draft. Refer to this edition’s Comment paper for more information")

Thanks for posting this, HeronNS. I've not read it closely. The effect on bones from muscle weakness and decreased loading during prolonged illness seems obvious, but this article highlights the complexity of bone metabolism, and is further argument for avoiding Covid. The increased incidence of vertebral fractures is certainly a concern. The use of ChatGPT is an 'interesting' aspect.

not sure if any of the people who had the sars cov2 had also been given a covid injection,so that's a whole factor unmentioned.

similar to OP stats, xyz number of bone breakages per year in australia - it isn't said how many of the people are on OP drugs,

how long they have been on them,

and how many of those injuries are drug-related.

the mice studies mention effect of spikes, and guess what's in spike vax (formerly astrazeneca),

so this is more story in an effort to keep 'covid' relevant

[HeronNS in reply to MayGodBlessYou]

With respect, Astra-Zeneca is not an mRNA vaccine. Moderna was renamed Spikevax.

The point of my post is not to promote (or otherwise) vaccination, but to bring attention to some research which determined that a SARS-CoV-2 infection can cause increased risk of developing osteoporosis. Just something that people should be aware of so that they can take steps to protect their bone density.

Now I know why my Osteoporosis is worse then ever. I had Covid 3x.

[HeronNS in reply to Deb967]

I'm sorry to hear that. Are you feeling okay now otherwise?

[Deb967 in reply to HeronNS]

No I’m still getting side effects from Prolia.

[MayGodBlessYou in reply to Deb967]

may i ask if you had a covid injection. or have you been on other medications.

i check medications, just searching <(the drug name), bone>

e.g recently i have read that frusemide, prednisone, thyroid medication are bad for bone health

plus antidepressants.

[Deb967 in reply to MayGodBlessYou]

Yes I have had 4 covid shots and still got Covid 3x. I am on Meds and Thyroid is one of them. But I had Gastric Bypass and that gives you Osteoporosis

[MayGodBlessYou in reply to Deb967]

i had probable covid over a year ago, and no injections prior, yeh not fun (great sleep though!) can you see how the injections may have made you sick, or at least did not help.;

i'm on a carbimazole (for hyper).

i read that drugs for hypothyroidism are harsh on bones,

but of synthroid and the natural (pig's), synthroid is more consistent;

pig's thyroid may be treated as a foreign body by our immune system, that then comes across as autoimmune flare but is simply foreign material and variable.

[Deb967 in reply to MayGodBlessYou]

Yes I had Covid in 2020. Took the Covid shot after. Then took 2 boosters. So total of 4 shots

[MayGodBlessYou]

ah yeh looks like i got the mrna mixed you with az, which was renamed something else. vaers usa will show the damage and death the injections have caused,

my point was that the injections cause covid symptoms which are then put in the covid column instead of ill-effects column,

as well as putting flu in the covid column,

[MayGodBlessYou]

sars cov2, rsv, flu a, and flu b - they're the same test

same test for sars co v 2, flu a, flu b, and rsv

[HeronNS in reply to MayGodBlessYou]

The test can detect different viral strains in the single sample. You aren't likely to be sick with more than one at a time, but with confusing initial similar symptoms this test can tell you if you have one of the diseases and if so which one. I think it's pretty clever of the scientists to have figured out how to combine the tests into such a convenient package, although I've only seen them in pictures. We are still able to get free covid test kits.

[Deb967 in reply to HeronNS]

Each time I was tested through blood test and diagnosed with Covid.

[MayGodBlessYou in reply to MayGodBlessYou]

same antigens

[HeronNS in reply to MayGodBlessYou]

I don't know how these things work but I'd have assumed the antigens are different which is why a positive line will show up in a particular part of a combo test depending which disease a sick person has, and the other parts show negative. If they were all the same there'd be no point in the test. They've designed the test to be able to detect antigens of more than one disease.

Anyway, good night!

oh i see what you're saying there
