Yes I take some calcium , and I eat alot of Organic Cauliflower which is high Calcium. I refuse to drink fluoridated water. or to get fluoride treatments for my teeth. Low thyroid will cause yellow teeth by the way. I take extra 74 Trace Minerals. Lots of Magnesium,D-3 ,K-2/MK-7 which without a balanced amt of Ca/Mag/and along with K-2 which directs the Calcium inside the bones and teeth and away from the blood stream which with high calcium levels in your :hot blood it I think causes hardening of the arteries and that is why doctors prescribe Calcium blockers …which I would rather take K-2 so it takes it or directs it my bones …..and K-2 is not the clot forming Vitamin K either. The Medical and Dental System we know is a very narrow minded powerful system in the USA who will not even try natural ways of healing because they can’t make money on healing the patients they have try drugs that treat the symptoms and then which end up making the person more sicker or their organs get shut down over time and they die……that is how MD.s make money on creating disease for profit……they may not fully realize that but its true if you take an objective look at what they do for our health …..which is nothing …other than tell us what not to do , without telling us what to take in the natural realm. that is what I have done for my health and for me I am better for it and my Dexa scan proved it…take care …FYI if you want more info on concerns about Fluoride uses and harms…..go to the website .Fluoridealert.org /or The Fluoride Action Network……

When my therapist has me working mildly on several pieces of equipment (eg: treadmill, bike, etc.), the lower end my lower spine has pain going left & right and I feel something that feels like an electric shock when I walk and when I sit and attempt to stand up. What’s going on and what should I NOT be doing?

And if you have any suggestions would be great

about what direction to take, suffer from a sever lack of trust in drug companies which is justified. Sharing our experiences is empowering .

My bone density results are:
Lumbar Spine – total bone mineral density 0.767 gm/cm2 (T score -2.5 and Z score -1.4) Osteoporosis, fracture risk High.
Left hip – total bone mineral density is 0.794 gm/cm2 (T score -1.2 and Z score -0.5) Osteopenia – fracture risk increased. Would you take the prescribed medicine with these results. I have read so many horrible side effect and as of now, I don’t have any problems. I know taking the meds are suppose to help but after reading some of these blogs and hearing meds didn’t help, I’m not sure what to do?

All I was told was go to Theraphy / I didn’t. I had been many times just to pass off problem. I was never explained to about the danger of the score and supposedly a great Orthopaedic surgeon!!! I now am told to have test by family Dr. and score is 1-4.85… Why would an Orthopaedic Dr. Not explain??? What do I do now at age 70 ? I suffer daily from back pain but I thought due to cervical disc surgery on C234 was the reason but mid npback now! I am so upset over the first ( supposedly great Dr. ) doing nothing!!!! I don’t know who to believe or trust!!! Why run the bone scan if no answers or recommendations ????

Now at life screening heel only was told 1.3 or -1.3 not sure which, is that worse or better if no minus? I have degenerative arthritis tissue & bone worn down in L knee worse. I started running in grass only, using spring foot inserts seem to help a lot. I felt like I couldn’t move run at all before, thank now can. Only run maybe 2-3x a wk OR about 15mins, gets my heart rate up to 82 beats(usually I am 60 or less at rest). Any web site to give weight training pictures I can do on my own? I can t afford trainer. Any retired free trainers? I swim & use Jacuzzi helps a lot when I have pain in knees or flat feet also have plantar fascia. thanks to JESUS He saves my soul & promises a new body one day I cant wait!!! thanks
