BUILDING BONES

Would you attempt to build on a foundation such as shown in the photo above?

The answer, as I imagine it, is, “Of course not!“

Yet this is exactly what some are doing, who are using osteoporosis drugs to make their bones denser. Bones naturally undergo a continual process of “remodeling,” which includes the breakdown of old, crumbling bone that the body disposes of in what are referred to as osteoclasts (Reminder: Osteoclasts are the part of the old, crumbling bone the body “casts” off to make room for new bone. Osteoblasts are new bone and could be thought of as cells being “blasted” onto the foundation.)

As many knowledgeable of how osteoporosis drugs work state that the drugs slow or stop the osteoclast activity and then build new bone on that existing foundation. Unfortunately, this presents a significant conflict. It is just like one in construction who would build a new building on an old, crumbling foundation. This simply doesn’t make sense.

We were created with superior knowledge that allows the disposal of the old to make way for the new when it comes to our bones, just as with every other cellular tissue in our bodies. It is our natural process. Yet, some have come to think that they know better and attempt to build on what is a poor foundation. It’s not that the drugs rebuild the old foundation first so that the new building blocks can be added on what already exists in prime form; instead, they leave the old just as it is, which is already in a state of disrepair, and then add the new atop the old.

Dr. Peter Glidden makes this point clear in this brief video. It is available here on YouTube.

Remember: It is NOT “denser” bones but “STRONGER” bones that you need. If you want stronger, healthier bones, you need to allow the natural remodeling process to take place, which includes the removal of the old bone, to allow the laying of new osteoblast cells. Strong, healthy bones require as many of the right nutrients as possible, and a targeted load put on the bones to “build” new bone tissue.
