Prolia: The Commercial (All Lies!) And My Parody (The Truth!)
…l script of my own, which unlike the actual TV ad, reveals the truth about Prolia. But first, let’s take a look at … The Prolia Commercial You may have already seen the commercial featuring Blythe Danner strolling confidently through an outdoor farmer’s market, buying various wares and closely inspecting and cradling a fragile glass ornament. She even climbs joyfully into a hay wagon, talking and laughing with others. If you haven’t seen it yet, h…

Alert! The FDA Issued Its Strictest Warning For Deadly Effects Of Osteoporosis Drug Prolia
…spitalization, life-threatening events, and in some cases death. All About Prolia Prolia is a monoclonal antibody administered every six months as a subcutaneous injection. It suppresses osteoclasts, the cells responsible for breaking down old and damaged bone as part of the bone remodeling process. To do this, Prolia mimics a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) cytokine named osteoprotegerin. Osteoprotegerin blocks the function of RANK Ligands (RANKL). R…

…eletal pain, bladder infection, and pancreatitis.5 And as disclosed on the Prolia website (https://www.prolia.com), it can cause serious side effects because it “is a medicine that may affect your immune system” (remember the cytokines?). These are the main side effects listed by Amgen: Low calcium levels Serious skin, lower abdomen, bladder, or ear infections Dermatitis, rash, or eczema Inflammation of the inner lining of the heart (endocarditis)…

Prolia Pros And Cons
…tive side effects of other osteoporosis medications are well-known, making Prolia seem like a welcome change. Prolia works where other osteoporosis medications fail. This ties in with Prolia being new – it’s held out as a hope for those who have had bad luck with other osteoporosis drugs. The Cons It’s new. Yes, this was listed in the pros, but Prolia’s newness is most definitely a double-duty characteristic of the drug. The fact that it’s new mea…

Scientists Discover Why Stopping Prolia Increases Risk Of Fracture
…s. Osteomorphs Likely Cause The Increased Risk Of Fractures After Stopping Prolia This discovery may explain why the osteoporosis drug Prolia (denosumab) can cause bones to weaken and fracture when treatment ends. Prolia inhibits RANKL, the signaling system that regulates osteoclasts. Until now, we didn’t know that RANKL also mediates the recombination of osteomorphs back into osteoclasts. The researchers postulated that denosumab’s RANKL-inhibiti…

Scientifically Proven: Cyanidin In These Fruits Inhibits Osteoclasts, Increases Osteoblasts And Much More!
…nes. Prolia: A Dangerous RANKL Manipulator The Medical Establishment touts Prolia as a “safer” alternative to bisphosphonates. But Prolia is far from safe. It works by mimicking a cytokine called osteoprotegerin, which binds to RANKL and prevents its interaction with RANK receptors on the surface of osteoblast cells. Essentially, it renders osteoclasts inactive. There, of course, is the problem. For healthy bone remodeling, osteoclasts must be act…

‘Vivian Answers Day’ #3
…r help? -Barbara W. Dear Barbara, You might have missed my blog post about Prolia (densumab), where I expose this new osteoporosis drug in detail. Prolia basically achieves the same result as bisphosphonates, but through a different (and potentially more dangerous) biochemical pathwyay. In a nutshell, Prolia is a twice-yearly injection that can have a negative effect on the immune system and many other undesirable side effects and long-term conseq…

Latest Osteoporosis News: The International Osteoporosis Foundation Agrees With Save Our Bones, Drug Companies Get Desperate, Another Jaw Lawsuit Won Against Big Pharma, And More!
…UCB.”3 Amgen is talking out of both sides of its corporate mouth here. If Prolia is so “wonderful,” then why are they developing a new drug? If you’re a regular reader, you’ll know that Prolia is anything but wonderful. Romosozumab apparently inhibits sclerostin, a protein with which Savers are familiar. Sclerostin is produced by cells in mature bone, and is essential in the bone remodeling process. Among other roles, sclerostin stops new bone fo…

…porosis. It sounds as though you may not have yet read my blog post titled Prolia (denosumab): My Review. I strongly recommend you take the time to read it. In a nutshell, Prolia is a new type of injectable drug designed to treat and prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis for patients considered to be at high risk of fractures. Like bisphosphonates, but using a different pathway affecting the immune system, Prolia de-activates osteoclasts, which in t…

…e health next. You can read about Denosumab in a blog post I wrote titled “Prolia (Denosumab): My Review”, where I explain how this novel drug ultimately acts like bisphosphonates, but with even more potentially serious side effects. And I also recommend that you download (if you haven’t yet) the free Natural Bone Building Handbook then get started on the Osteoporosis Reversal Program to accelerate your bone density increase without taking drugs….
