you're an idiot! if you can see fractures in the xray you don't need to worry with scans. and if you're in pain it's a disease. if it happened to men (more often) it would be dealt with.

I am 69 yo I have been taking these meds since 1994 when a dexa scan showed osteoporosis. I have now suffered fx of all of my vertebrae except T4, and cervical spine. I also have Hashimotos. I ruptured my T 12 Dec 15, I can't get these doctors to listen to me. What can I do? I am miserable.

@@marioncochrane2138 listen to you in what way? You may try coconut oil on the painful spots or castor oil... some have claimed either of those helps. Up your minerals... horsetail herb or bamboo extract, vit D and K, vitamin C. See what others have mentioned, one mentioned prunes.

You genius, you!!! Don't you hate always being right? I know I do, lol... P.S. I told my elderly mom's doc to get her off that crap!!! P.S.S. horsetail herb builds bone...

Have you tried D3/K2? THE K2, makes bones stronger

With magnesium.

I fail to understand how being petite makes your bones different.

@@jeanetteblankenship3794 relates to FRAX score

Good for you. I took the meds for osteoporosis for a year then one week I had a pain in my thigh and jaw that woke me out of a deep sleep. I stopped taking the meds and have been taking Vit K2+M7. No more pain in my thigh or my jaw.

👍👏😊

I developed metformin induced lactic acidosis. It almost killed me.

Yes please do, my brother has been on metformin for two years now.

The Life Extension organization has done a lot of research on metformin.

Oh yes you are so right and make so much sense. I'd love to watch his video on diabetics and metformin..... Dr. Osborne ROCKS! Some doctors loose our respect, others win us over with flying colors and we esteem and respect them so very much. Don't we?

So glad to help you Jennifer!

I too have severe scoliosis. I have done yoga for almost 50 years and also my job involves heavy lifting. I really think these two things have helped me be able to move and stay strong. Yes my scan led my Dr. to suggest I get on Prolia... I chose a "Thanks but NO THANKS"

I am age 72 and have hqd osteopenia and osteoporosis for some years due to a total hysterectomy at age 36 due to severe endometriosis and fibroids. I have been successful in restricting my bone mass by 6& through using functional medicine, a nutrient rich dietary protocol AND bio-identical hormones. I have worked hard for a number of years to improve my bone health. I also do a lot of walking and weight bearing exercises. You can improve if you have the right physician and willing to do the hard work needed.

@@donnaallgaier-lamberti3933 what are bio, identical, h What are bio identical hormones? I am in my 70s, and I refuse to go on Prolia or anything else. Can you tell me what you are taking? I just had a shoulder replacement and I need new knees lol. Falling apart, had hysterectomy at 35.

I guess this is the 70+ severe scoliosis club. In my early 50’s, with an Osteopenia diagnosis, I was put on Forteo for two years. 20 years later I been told I have the big O, but have refused anything else. Apparently that was the right thing to do. I do take RX vitamin D. Thank you SO much for the video.

You are lucky. I took this evil medicine and my joints all hurt and larger.

Not going for any bone testing ever again. Was prescript Aclasta and had side effects for one year. Cost me a lot of money to get over it. On top of it my dentist won’t pull any teeth and have to go to a specialist with much higher costs.

@@hildegardstratkotter6576 I had it too! It was the most painful procedure I ever endured and it didn't help! Recently had a DEXA Scan which was worse than my last one. Now that I know what it's all about I will rely only on diet and excercise! I'm not going back to my rheumatologist!

Thanks for your kind words! So glad my info is helping you! Make sure to pay it forward by sharing it with someone you care about! #save100millionlives

will do ... stay awesome ... cheers.

Me too I was diagnosed recently and I knew I didn't want to rely on the medications I want to heal my bones naturally ♥️♥️♥️ from what I've learned about the medications there's more downsides to upsides in the upside is artificial and still risky

Thankyou for sharing. I hope you are feeling better. I just discovered Dr Osborne's most interesting & helpful podcast today. I had been told 6 months ago after my 2nd bone scan after 3 years that my osteoporosis has worsened & I had been prescribed Alendronate 150mg Daily! I am in my 70s. I was reluctant but after been spoken to patiently by Nutritionist over 3 occasions, I gave in. I was told if I don't take the drug, & if I fall & fracture I would likely die!!! After a month, I didn't feel well so I decided to stop. Now I understand Dr Osborne's explanation. Thankyou, Dr Osborne!!

so fun to hear all these great examples. when you really start examining the medical business, you can see it’s all about marketing techniques and misinformation

You are a strong woman Barb, mentally and physically... stick to your guns 😊

Me too! I’m 62

@jessw6617 thank you so much for your kind words. I feel so much stronger with all of you! I feel like we're standing strong together ❤️

@@barbh6987 Amen!!! My mom took a very bad tumble at age 75 and fell very hard on her hips, but she didn’t so much as even have a fracture!!! AND, the doctors said she had weak bones too!! We laugh now at how strong we know her bones _really_ are!! ❤ She exercises (nothing too strenuous, LOL), lifts weights at the gym with my dad, and I’d say about 90% of her diet is whole, unprocessed food, with lots of veggies. My dad is the challenge, because he’s always wanting to eat out, and he likes to sneak sweets, etc at the store. 🤪

Great story.....I hear you!!!

Yes, the less the doc's drugs, the better… none is the best. I had a bone density test 10 years ago, which showed a very bad score. At the time I was taking clonazepam for sleep and omeprazole for stomach acid. Looking back, I realize they made me stiff and anxious. Because all drugs are acidic, they are very bad for bones. Bones love an alkaline diet.

The cholesterol medication is very dangerous, and I celebrate your choices! I'm 65, no medications, and rowing/yoga every day. Take care, from Canada.

I am 71 yo, on no medication at all! Feel perfectly fine, work all day long, eat modestly, no overweight, what else...? If we look at the main health problems nowadays, there are many "illnesses" which are used to scaremonger the patients and to make them use medications (high BP, increased stroke risk in AF patients, glaucoma, preventive prostate medications, ...). Not to mention chronic disease...

Your right on!! Thanks for the truth. The legal Drug Cartels are brainwashing physicians.

I started taking B-12 injections twice a month because I have pernicious anemia and was always fatigued. Blood tests always came back roughly normal for everything. I researched what my blood levels were for many things, found out the doctor that does my labs does a very general report (Veterans Admin. doctors) and just looked at the typical range for inactive males, wow, so relevant I thought to myself. After I took 2-3 B-12 shots every 10-15 days, I started to feel like I was 20 years old again. It's been amazing.

@@doloreschansey9556 Which type of b12 did you take? A lot of doctors won't prescribe shots taken more than once a month, if at all.

Walking is the best exercise.

But the doctors are taught to prescribe prescriptions for everything. Just the warnings on the literature should be enough to scare us off but we also have been lied to since an early age.

@@lindaaurand185 i go to doctors to find out what is wrong. Then when I go home. I go to acupuncturist or naturopathic dr or I heal myself. Of course I will need to take medicine if necessary. But if not necessary and if I feel dr cares more about making money for their job or for pharmaceutical companies, I would not listen to them. This life is a fallen world. Everybody is about their own profits.

So true. Same with the covid vaccine. We just believed.

Good for you! The only med I take is thyroid medicine. I'm trying to get off of that.

I'm in my 60s too. I noticed all my friends are on the common typical over 50 meds but look & feel bad.

I was told at 30 that my spine was see thru by a chiropractic pretreatment x ray. They refused to touch me. What!? I'm 30? I was strong as a horse. Petite but plenty of muscle mass and worked and exercised hard daily. I'm now 67 over the past few years since menopause I've been on numerous meds that have only made me sicker. I took the Fosamax for a few years before having my teeth removed. This caused serious issues getting my teeth out. The ones with caps and crowns were attached to my jaw bone with bone build up. No one said this could happen. Now I'll need more surgery just to make my dentures fit. I'm now told I have severe scoliosis along with degenerative arthritis of the spine as well as osteoporosis. Good grief!

@@bonniethompson610so sorry to hear all of this, of course I don't know all the details but I would get away from those doctors and people as quickly as I could, clearly they are not acting in your best interest. If you absolutely have to have the teeth work finished then finish it and run as fast as you can away from.

Hahahahahaaha!! So true. The day you turn 65 suddenly you're treated like an old lady; no exceptions!

I had the same experience. I took Prolia for 4 years. I later learned that it's only meant to be given for a short time!

The TRUTH about Osteoporosis is that in 2001 PBS showed Stanford University researchers using stereo speakers and a laptop to histogram what is Bone and what is Marrow. Then they discovered THE CURE is "20 seconds each day at 70% Maximum Heart Rate". More time had no additional benefit. Bone grew back, Marrow shrank, in 2 months BACK TO NORMAL. By treading water in a pool! Low impact. Tread so Shoulders not just chin out of water, 20 seconds, "You are done!". Then Boneva made a pill, came and bought and buried that Stanford Research.

I'm sorry to hear that :( Mainstream medical is dangerous! No one taught us (I'm a nurse, and also a patient of multi-level gaslighting which is rampant) about the importance of K2. Ayyyy. I'm so sorry :(

My partner also had renal failure after prostate cancer , however he did not drink calcium the radiation mushed his renal pipes to the kidneys, 10 years later

I read an article about 10 years ago by a doctor ( not sure but his name may have been Dr. Whittaker) he said THERE IS NO SUCH DISEASE AS OSTOPENIA. It's all about big pharma $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ O$TOPENIA

Too late now for him, but The Calcium Paradox is worth reading.

Good grief.No one is trying to "brainwash" you. Do what your frigging doctor tells you.

Thank you, I am vegan too and have been diagnosed with severe osteoporosis and I have had four compression fractures in my spine but I refuse to take the medication. I joined a gym and I’m doing silver sneakers exercises five days a week for an hour a day, and I am walking 3 to 4 miles a day with my dog, and that’s going to have to do it for me.

Good choice! You are still very young.😊

I'm not sure how old we were but it was about 30 years ago when the doctor read the scan and said I had the bones of a 95 yr old. I just didn't believe him. Several weeks later a girlfriend was shocked to hear she had the bones of a 95 yr old. I mentioned it to my sister and she said the same thing. Not all the same doctors either. Same happened with mammograms. My sister was flipping out and I told her I got one of those letters too. I stopped getting mammograms. This was like 30 years ago too.

@@nancyfahey7518 oh wow I have heard scary things like that about doctors patience but I do trust my doctor. I know why I develop osteoporosis so my dexa scan results really didn't shock me but they did make me so sad and disappointed in myself, after you got your dexa scan results what did you do? But that doctor tell you to get on medication did you treat your bones naturally? It's been about a year later since I was diagnosed it's still so much I need to learn I think I've made some progress change my diet doing strength training taking supplements I'm just hoping so much in my heart that everything I'm doing is helping my bones I'm not able to get another dexa scan until next year

How do we keep the bones around our teeth from losing mass? Chew gum? Do you know?

​@@winniecash1654 the best way is to have a robust cleaning technique (not heavy, but detailed). Periodontal bone loss has more to do with debris, plaque, and poor oral hygiene (ie less than optimal oral hygiene) than any other single cause. Mechanical removal is the answer. Matter left behind or missed by the tooth brush or floss creates an auto immune response that creates the eventual bone loss. Tooth support structure is the only place in the body where mounted infection response doesn't wash infection away (compare with say, a splinter in your finger, which will eventually be ejected). As I used to tell my patients... you only floss the teeth you want to keep! Hope that helps. Depending on conditions, visit a hygienist (might need an annual visit or one every 3 months... can't tell! 😉)

@@HotYogaDoctor thank you for responding. I understand.

At 77 yrs old I was put on bisphosphonates for 7 weeks but had severe pain in my backside and thighs so my young keen doctor put me on prolia without any explanation. Since, I have done a lot of research and found numerous friends on prolia have had many and severe fractures. One had a complete lower jaw replacement because of osteonecrosis. Thanks soooo much for this information. Will come off prolia and have an intense chat with my recently graduated doctor!

All the best to you. I hope your bones getting stronger and more flexible.

Years ago, after a DEXA scan, my Dr. prescribed Fosamax. Three months later, I had extremely weakened quads, I had difficulty walking up stairs and stooping. Then a few months after that, my family began noticing I seemed to be depressed and not as happy as I usually am. That was a wake-up for me to really pay attention to what was happening to my body. I stopped taking the Fosamax. Within a short span, my mood was back to normal, but it took, I would say a good 2 years before my legs didn't feel like lead. D3-K2 and Magnesium for me. My current dr wants me to get a scan and I refused with a hard "no".

BEWARE OF FOSAMAX!!! Back in 2016, my family dr. gave me Fosamax to treat BONE DENSITY LOSS. As soon as I took a very small pill , I suffered a painfull health crisis that sent Me to the hospital. At the hospital , the dr. Told Me that my leg bones almost broke down.

Thankyou for sharing. Hope you are feeling better!!

​@@onyxwong7084 I can't believe this stuff is still on the market! Around the same time period I warned my mother -in-law about it. Very shortly after her Dr. called her and told her to stop taking it. At least she has a good doctor.

Encouraging news.

I am 79, soon to be 80. My Rheumatologist said to me, “if you were my mother, I wouldnt ask you to take Prolia, I would just jab you”. I had a DEXA scan two years ago and nothing has actually changed in my bone density, but it is noted that even if the bone density hasnt improved it hasnt worsened. I swing Kettlebells 3 x weekly, and apart from an ageing body, I dont have pain or am unable to walk. I deadlifted 32kgs which caused a stress fracture, possibly because I have Osteoporosis, my Rheumatologist posed the question “how many times do you have to break a bone before you’ll agree to taking Prolia”? I have refused.

@@juliehock6059 Prolia now is known as absolute poison and the FDA gave out a warning about it in January 2017. Leaving it off can cause multiple fractures. I am in a group in the UK and two poor victims each have 8 and 10 vertibral fractures from leaving it off. Good old UK trailed behind in May 2020 and then gave out a govt warning.

My doctor pushed Prolia but I refused. When I asked how long I would have to take it he said the rest of my life as it is not safe to quit. If you quit without going on another drug your bones could shatter.

So sorry this happened to you. May God grant you healing. That horrible Prolia that they lie about

Mary don't forget to take the sulfate supplements - glucosamine and chondroiton and also MSM. I am led to ask - what happened to my arthritis and the pain?

They can "push" all they want. You did it. Next time, don't let them "push you." Can't blame others. I was "pushed" to take the vent. I refused. I"m alive to tell and write the book.

The reason you have good bones at this age is because of the heavy lifting involved in cross fit training. It has been demonstrated through the Liftmore study completed by Professor Belinda Beck in Australia, that HIIT training - supervised - for people with ostoepenia or osteoporosis will lead to increased bone density. If you started cross fitting before menopause, you will have done enough to ensure a balance in the bone remodelling process.

@@magpiegirl3783 I also take 6000 ie of vit D3 and 15k of Vit K2 which I have read clearly impacts bone density

Therefore the dexascan was accurate!! This guy is off

How much bone density improvement is possible with xfit training if started after menopause?

Reclass almost killed me. When I took the transfusion I wasn't feeling good, I had tingling and numbness. I felt tired, and lightheaded. I had an appt to see my rhumotogist for routine checkup a week later, and told him what I was experiencing, and he said it had nothing to do with Reclass..after my visit I had the usual blood work done, driving home I felt worse, and blew 2 tires out because my judgment was off, and I cut too close to a pot hole, but it gets better. After getting towed home, I get a phone call from my Dr. to get to the hospital right away to have another test..It seems after the Reclass my bones sucked up all the calcium, and there was no calcium in my bloodstream. I avoided the hospital stay by having calcium infusions two nights in a row in Emergency unit..I was there 4 hrs both nights. That was 12 years ago, and funny how no mention of me having these bone medications again from my D.., in fact after having bone density tests done since then, I have improved in some areas..Weight bearing exercises is the answer.. The crappy part is that Reclass did have these known sides effects, and my Dr. Said it wasn't the Reclass. I just started taking Collagen peptides with MSM and I'm do for another bone density, I can't wait to see the results, but after this story, it will be my last bone density. I also started taking vit D3 with Vit k 2 combo. Please be careful..Its a damn shame we put so much trust in our Drs, because we think they really care about us. It's all about the money..Thank goodness we have Dr's like this one telling us the truth.

As soon as I hit menopause he told me I should have this done..Why? My bones werent brittle. Think of how many menopausal woman patients he tells should have Reclass..Its done at his practice.

The TRUTH about Osteoporosis is that in 2001 PBS showed Stanford University researchers using stereo speakers and a laptop to histogram what is Bone and what is Marrow. Then they discovered THE CURE is "20 seconds each day at 70% Maximum Heart Rate". More time had no additional benefit. Bone grew back, Marrow shrank, in 2 months BACK TO NORMAL. By treading water in a pool! Low impact. Tread so Shoulders not just chin out of water, 20 seconds, "You are done!". Then Boneva made a pill, came and bought and buried that Stanford Research. You cannot even find mention of it anywhere on the web! Greedy Bastards!

Interesting to hear that the meds did not change your numbers. That for me is the biggest reason not to take those meds.

Sooo, Dr. Peter Osborne, what are your thoughts on frame size, bone size ???

Standard sized on average throughout is my thought. Never heard any anthropologist having dug up old bones saying ooh big boned or small boned. As a kid of 14 in school I always remember a ‘larger’ girl telling me she’d got big bones and that I’d never have kids as I was skinny therefore small boned despite being 5’10” lol. But.. turned out she was right in one aspect.. 46yrs later still no kids.. but why? simple.. contraception 😂 Back to subject on hand.. yep, stress your bones then they’ll build strength, don’t use them you’ll use them.

@@carolwaller9605 - Your statements are only anecdotal to your own life experience. Your recollections may vary. The determination of stature by anthropologists is based on series of formulas that have been developed over time using either long or short bones or the combination of both. Stature is given as a range of possible values, in centimeters, and typically computed by measuring the bones. The lower extremity bones that are used are femur, tibia, and fibula. In addition to the lower extremity bones, the bones of the upper extremity-humerus, ulna, and radius have also been used. More recently researchers have estimated stature from cephalo-facial anthropometrics.21,22 The formulas that researchers used to determine stature rely on information regarding the individual such as the sex, race, and age. These should be determined before attempting to ascertain the height of the individual possibly because of the differences that occur between populations, sexes, and age groups. By knowing all the variables associated with height, a more accurate estimate can be made by the investigators. Thus, the bone is the frame of our life and the frame of the “big four of forensic anthropology” (sex, age, race and stature) because each of the big fours can be determined from the frame of life (bone). What’s Your True Frame Size? frame sizeDid you know that your ideal body weight depends on what type of body frame you have? Two people who are 5 feet (1.52 meters) tall do not need to weigh the same weight to be considered healthy. There is a wide range. Ideal healthy weight all depends on your body composition, body shape, and frame size. 3 Methods to Determine Frame Size Elbow Measurement Bend your elbow 90 degrees. You want to take the measurement of the width of the widest part of the bone at your elbow. Simply use your middle finger and thumb to get an estimate, and then check this estimate with a ruler/measuring tape. Check the chart below. elbow measurement Wrist Measurement Use a measuring tape to measure the circumference of your wrist (the smallest part just above the bone). Then, check the chart below. wrist measurement Wrist Measurement with Fingers This is less accurate. Wrap your thumb and middle finger around the smallest part of your wrist. If they overlap, you are small framed. If they touch, you are medium framed. If you can barely get them to touch or they are not touching, you have a large frame. I recommend doing a combination of these measurements get a better idea of your frame size. Ideal Body Weight In general, you can use this calculation to determine an ideal body range: Women Start with 100 pounds for 5 feet tall. Add 5 pounds for every inch over 5 feet that you are. With this number you can subtract 10% for small frames, and add 10% for large frames. Men Start with 106 pounds for 5 feet tall. Add 6 pounds for every inch over 5 feet that you are. With this number you can subtract 10% for small frames, and add 10% for large frames. Or, check out this easy to read chart from ygraph once you know your frame size. healthy body weight Overall, use your judgment when it comes to your weight. At the end of the day, the number doesn’t matter. What matters is where you feel healthy at. Do you know your frame size?
