Quercetin shows promising potential for supporting bone health and counteracting osteoporosis-like bone loss based primarily on preclinical (cell and animal) evidence. 1 First, Quercetin supports gut health primarily through prebiotic-like effects on the microbiota, strengthening of the intestinal barrier, increased production of beneficial metabolites, and anti-inflammatory/antioxidant actions in the gut. Most evidence comes from animalContinue reading “Quercetin”

Are You Overdoing Supplements and Finding It is Costing You More Than It Should?
I fear far too many are still attempting to get all their nutrition from supplements and not paying attention to what they get from their food/diet first. The rule is sunshine first for vitamin D, then food (ONLY), and for everything else, food first, then supplement only what you lack each day, except vitamin DContinue reading “Are You Overdoing Supplements and Finding It is Costing You More Than It Should?”
Low B12 and Your Bones
Low vitamin B12 (cobalamin) levels are associated with an increased risk of lower bone mineral density (BMD), osteoporosis, and fractures. Multiple observational studies support this link.

PROTEIN POWDERS
Finding a clean protein powder can be a challenge.

Some have sugars or artificial sweeteners, such as the example below: (Note the Acesulfame Potassium and Sucralose, bothContinue reading “PROTEIN POWDERS”

Review of Beyond Osteo-fx
As with most other Osteo Bone Support Supplements, Beyond Osteo-fx is no different in that it has synthetic vitamins, cheap minerals, antinutrients, and disproportionate dosages. Let’s take a look . . . As you can see, we start off with (synthetic) D3, a hormone made from lanolin in this case. Unless Cholecalciferol is marked “from”Continue reading “Review of Beyond Osteo-fx”
Jarrow’s Bone Up
So what’s up with this bone support product? Here’s the scoop! As with most similar products, we start off with (so-called) Vitamin C, which is in the form of Calcium Ascorbate, which is not even vitamin C but synthetic Ascorbic Acid mixed with calcium, likely carbonate. Too few know why to avoid Synthetic Ascorbic Acid, but itContinue reading “Jarrow’s Bone Up”
Aluminum’s Effects On the Bones
Impact of Aluminum on Bone Health Aluminum accumulation in bones can lead to oxidative damage, affect blood vessel tone, and cause apoptosis of heart muscle cells, potentially impacting bone and cardiovascular health. Studies suggest that long-term low-level exposure to aluminum can contribute to chronic bone and cardiovascular diseases by disrupting mineral metabolism. 1 In aContinue reading “Aluminum’s Effects On the Bones”
