A study published in the journal Aging looked at whether a combination of melatonin, strontium, vitamin D3, and vitamin K2 could improve bone density.

The women in the supplementation group had 4.3 percent increase in bone mineral density in the lumbar spine and a 2.2 percent increase in the hip bone.

Furthermore, the treated group had a reduction in bone turnover when compared to the treatment group.

Inflammatory markers also declined in the treatment group, and mood and sleep improved, the authors concluded.

I have been treating osteoporosis/ osteopenia successfully for more than 20 years. That success has been achieved without ever prescribing a bisphosphonate drug like Fosamax. Bisphosphonate drugs are fraught with terrible side effects, and they weaken bones.

If your doctor is prescribing an osteoporotic medication to treat your bone density tests, I say that is a good sign to find a holistic healthcare practitioner who truly understands how bone support works

You can be put on a natural regimen that actually reverses faltering bone density and builds stronger bones.
