It’s busy here as usual as I’m wrapping up some exciting upcoming projects. I truly never expected such an overwhelming response to my book and my website. It turns out that spreading the truth about Osteoporosis is a full time job… and I love every minute of it.
Our circle of friends is growing by leaps and bounds and I’m thrilled to share this special announcement with you.
Over the past year, I’ve been hard at work expanding the Save Our Bones website. The end result is something that I would have loved to have when I was diagnosed with Osteoporosis a few years ago. Finally, SaveOurBones.com is a comprehensive resource and support center for you and others that are seek natural solutions to Osteoporosis and Osteopenia… and it’s just getting started.
Now when you visit, SaveOurBones.com you’ll notice a brand new design with links that guide you through the new pages of the site.
Here on the Save Our Bones Blog, I post the latest articles, news, updates, videos, and much more. You can interact with me and others in the Save Our Bones community by leaving your comments on my articles (at the end of each blog post you’ll find the “Leave a Reply” form).
You’ll also notice the “Ask Vivian” category (click the “Ask Vivian” link below the green bar). This is a fast growing collection of questions and answers about Osteoporosis from our community. I think you’ll benefit from it greatly.
Stay tuned, because there’s more to come in our bone health revolution. Let me assure you that I couldn’t do all of this without you.
Talk to you soon,
Vivian
What a pleasure to hear that someone else is aware of the wonderful alternative solutions to osteoporosis. I too suffer from this disease and have worked very hard to build bone back. Through exercise, nutrition and stress reduction (I’m a psychologist), I was able to stop the loss. Yes, I was checked for malabsortion but that didn’t appear to be a problem. No family history. I got this disease as a result of taking too much thyroid medication. It’s a long, sad story. It wasn’t until I took strontium citrate, 454mg daily, that I was able to increase my bone density. My 2 year gain was 15% and 16% for hip and spine. I’d welcome the opportunity to talk with you about the mission we share. My partner and I are attempting to coordinate a research project with 1000 women with holistic treatment which includes strontium citrate. We are also both using the Juvent vibration machine which is another wonderful alternative to pharmaceuticals. I share your concerns about the current available drugs. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you so much for your website. I have not had a chance to read your book, but look forward to it. I am also a researcher (medical anthropology and public health), and have always believed in ‘natural medicine’. Two years ago I was diagnosed with a very aggressive breast cancer (BRCA-1) and was told by both allopathic and naturopathic physicians that I needed to have chemotherapy to save my life. The chemotherapy had wonderful results and I have been cancer free for two years. I had osteopenia before starting chemo and severe osteoporosis runs in my family (whether due to genetics or nutrition is moot at this point–I don’t want to break bones!). I follow Dr. Andrew Weil’s nutritional program and am satisfied with it. My naturopath recommended that I take strontium. The research and usage in England is on strontium renalate (sp?). I can only find strontium citrate in the US. Do you know how I can order strontium renalate–and should I even be concerned about the difference? Also New Chapter has a fermented product out on the market which mixes strontium w/calcium. Can you comment on this? The literature suggests taking them separately for maximum absorption.
Thank you so much! Good luck with your projects.
