Bone density improvement
After several years of investigations, I was diagnosed with osteoporosis in August 2020. My t scores were -2.7 in my hip and -2.4 in my Lumber spine. I was prescribed with Alendronic Acid which I refused to take because I was also diagnosed with hypercalcemia Upon further investigations I was diagnosed

HiMy vitamin d at last test was 141 and optimal in the range. Is this too high? Do I need to get my vitamin k tested? I'm not on d or k supplements.

Hypercoagulability and Thrombosis Risk in Prostate Cancer: The Role of Thromboelastography
A new Canadian paper {1]. A soapbox paper, but one that resonates with me Many years ago now, I ended up in ER with a double DVT (deep vein thrombosis) in my left leg ; fortunately below the knee.

Just diagnosed with Osteoporosis, rock and a hard place...
Do any of you have multiple conditions that make it difficult to treat OP? I have stage 3b chronic kidney disease, which means I have to limit my calcium and my protein. I also have chronic deep vein thrombosis for which I am on lifetime blood thinners. That means no food high in vitamin K. I'm also

Vitamin K-2 for Bone Health
I did not realize there were different forms of Vitamin K. I was doing some research and this is what I found. The two most important forms of Vitamin K-2 are MK-4 and MK-7. MK-4 has a short half life, only about 4 hours. This means half of it is eliminated from your body in 4 hours. MK-7 has a

Protein Shakes and Warfarin
Hi everyone, hope you are all doing well. I used to have regular protein shakes prior to my OHS, but since my operation I have been treading very carefully with food as trying to keep things "consistent" so not to affect my INR. I am now 19 weeks post surgery and have a mechanical valve. I am coming

Removing calcium.
Any thoughts out there on taking vit K and vit D to reduce calcium in the arteries? The idea is to take the D at breakfast, and the K at dinner time and ,over 3 months, the artery calcium should have actually reduced by some 30 to 50 %. If true, then it should be widely promulgated. Looking forward
