Non RX Route

I contacted a Naturopath and discussed diet/ exercise, lifestyle. He thought my habits were good, and suggested Methyl B12- 180 mg daily, and MK7.

Also, some herbs used in Oriental Medicine have been used for many years in Asia, and have been shown through trials to help build bone. I am considering starting two formulas. For this route, it is best to speak to an herbalist trained in this field.

Good luck!

Making a correction-The MK7 was 180 mcg, daily. The Methyl B12 Plus is 1000mcg daily.

Also, I found a helpful yoga series for osteoporosis in Forever Yoga with Susanah. She has several sessions on line with and without weights. Check it out!

The B12 product is Methyl B12 Plus recommended by a Naturopath. A company called Fullscript sent it to me. I'm guessing other sources are also available.

I am considering "Bone Health" from Mediherb and " Bone Health Pack" from Standard Process. These need to be ordered by a health practitioner who has studied herbs.
