I too cannot have grapefruit and I also cannot have Vitamin K because I have Atrial Fibilation. The tomatoes sounds good and I love them. If you can come up with anything else that I can have, I would be very grateful. Thank you for sharing al your hard work.

Dear Vivian, red grapefruits are one of my favorite treats. However, there is a conflict with eating grapefuits and taking medication for high blood pressure. Even though I take a minimal dosis I should consult my cardiologist. I’d love the eat them once in a while. By the way I stopped taking the Fosamax 2 weeks ago and I feel liberated.

I enjoy grapefruits occasionally Diagnosed with Osteopenia and subscribed Actonel last month. Since auto accident left me with back and leg issues, causing pain and stiffness which was severely enhanced by Actonel. Given Boniva but I have not had the nerve to take it. I am encouraged by your approach and will see how it looks after one year. Thank you. Wanda Vivian Longshore.

I read on the web that prunes(dried plums) can significantly increase bone density.
Has anyone any information about this?
