Natural program that has been shown to
Help many people build bone density

Fracture and you’d like him to
Work along with you maybe for a year for
Example now the doctor is likely to tell
You that you should take bone drugs this
Is probably based on the bone density
And so what we always say is to explain
To the doctor gee doc if it’s serious
Enough if my situation you think is serious enough that I have to use a bone
Drug then it’s certainly serious enough
To look into the possible causes of this
Bone weakening and there is a series of
Tests that the physician should do if
They think that there’s excessive bone
Loss or excessive bone weakening and

Test for parathyroid a test for loss like calcium in the urine a test for
Cortisol many different factors are
Known to directly increase our risk of
Fracture and you can with these tests
You can find out if there’s something
You need to correct or some underlying
Cause of the osteoporosis or the bone
Loss so you always want to get the
Physician to be your partner you want to
Suggest you do these tests you want to
Perhaps mention that you understand that
He’s concerned and if you can’t hold the
Bone loss then you’re going to have to
Do something more dramatic two of the
Very important tests on this sheet are
The markers
Bone breakdown we like the CTX or the
NTX
And the markers of bone formation like
Osteocalcin or PA or pro-collagen those
Tests can help you see just how much
Bone you’re losing right at this very
Minute and you want to see those markers
Change you want to see less bone
Breakdown and more bone build-up as you
Go along and equally if your tests show
You’re low in vitamin D you correct that
If you show that you’re losing calcium
In the urine your work to correct that I
Always say it’s difficult to solve a
Problem you don’t understand so help

Help you by understanding any possible
Hidden cause of bone weakness we’ve
