Product Information

Interestingly, one study showed that there might be a sweet spot for alcohol consumption and bone mineral density (BMD). While drinking four times a week or more was associated with reduced BMD, lighter drinkers (one to three times per week) had higher BMD than those who didn’t drink at all [ 19]. We recommend Now Foods MK-7 plus K1 and MK-4 because it contains both K1 and K2, both of which may be important for bone health. Now Foods is also known for its rigorous in-house testing for purity and potency, so you can trust that what’s on the label is what’s in the supplement. It’s also gluten-free, vegan, dairy-free, soy-free, and egg-free. Harvey NC, Biver E, Kaufman JM, et al.

If you try a slow reintroduction and identify that AlgaeCal Plus is causing your loose stools or diarrhea, this is likely due to the magnesium.

In a study of women 50–65 years of age, those who took MK-4 maintained bone density, whereas the group that received a placebo showed a significant decrease in bone density after 12 months ( 39). However, one study found little improvement in bone density among older men who performed the highest level of weight-bearing exercise over nine months ( 15). Eating to promote bone health is one of the most powerful things you can do as you get older. As you’ve probably surmised, many of these suggestions will extend to an overall well-balanced diet that can promote many areas of health (metabolic, heart, an cognitive health), so getting your diet in line always pays dividends when it comes to feeling your best.DiNicolantonio, James J., et al. “Not salt but sugar as aetiological in osteoporosis: A review.” Missouri medicine 115.3 (2018): 247.

I do believe I need quite a few test done for my bones and everything else before the next break or fracture, etc.? Would be my hip or more than my hip! Overall, repeatedly losing and regaining weight appears particularly detrimental to bone health, as well as losing a large amount of weight in a short time.

One major risk factor for osteoporosis in older adults is increased bone turnover, or the process of breaking down and forming new bone ( 7). In addition to slowing down your metabolism, creating rebound hunger and causing muscle mass loss, it can also be harmful to bone health.

Soy foods are often recommended for postmenopausal women because of the phytoestrogens (known as soy isoflavones), which may provide some estrogen-like effect in the body as estrogen levels decrease. Because estrogen plays an important role in bone density, researchers have looked at the connection between eating soy foods, bone density, and osteoporosis. The raw algae ( Lithothamnion superpositum) is USDA certified organic and certified kosher, though the final product is not. Fortical and Miacalcin contain the active ingredient calcitonin, which is a naturally occurring hormone that inhibits bone loss. It is available as a nasal spray or injection. Undesirable side effects include nausea and skin rashes.

Get enough calcium and vitamin D

In healthy bones, your cells carry out a delicate dance of breakdown and rebuilding. This is happening all of the time, even at this very moment. In osteoporosis, the cells responsible for rebuilding bones (called osteoblasts) cannot keep up with the destructive cells (called osteoclasts). The result? Your bones become weak and fragile.
