Re: Supplements I take and why

This is interesting. I’ve done so many things and don’t know which one is the most important. So I dint want to stop anything. I regards to iron I never researched that. However 2 years prior to my improved bone scan my bloodwork showed my ferritin at 156. I and my doctor thought that was high. I fi...

Re: Supplements I take and why

Geez I should proof my posts!! I meant I take 1000mg to 1200 mg of potassium citrate in morning and again at night. I found that with estimating how potassium I was eating did not come near the 4700mg rda. Even with supplementing and diet I’m probably still not getting there but I’m a lot closer. Th...

Re: Supplements I take and why

I just read my reply and meant I eat more salad and veggies. I also take a lot of potassium citrate, about 1000 to 12000 mg in morning and before bed either in pills or powder added to my lemon ginger water. I did reduce my calcium in my supplements. I get about 400 to 600 mg with alkaline balance a...

Re: Supplements I take and why

Hi circular Sorry I haven’t checked back in to see your questions. I read a great deal on urine ph and there are a lot of doctors that think that it’s normal to have an acidic urine ph and some say your blood ph is always in a normal range. However the body will keep your blood in the normal ph rang...

Re: Supplements I take and why

I’ve never read dr browns book. I just follow her on Facebook. She is mainly about doing it all with diet. Fruits and veggies. I do that but I just can’t eat as much as I would have to do to get that much potassium. I also follow dr berg on Facebook and a few others. Everybody sells their supplement...

Re: Supplements I take and why

I’m not sure if my collagen has helped my bones either. I was doing that prior years and it didn’t change anything but not sure if it’s all cumulative. It’s hard to tell when we do so much. I use hydrion test paper I will also try to link some research I have found My observations of people that hav...

Re: Supplements I take and why

I finally figured it out!! Duh. I re read my unedited reply and see it might be confusing. I was taking 99mg capsules of potassium and now I’m doing the powder. I also had added the phosphatidylcholine one year prior to my last scan. I think this may be essential too. I was taking one that soy deriv...

Re: Supplements I take and why

Hi Brain I kept getting worse too over the past 12 years until my last DEXA scan. I went from my worst vertebrae at -3.3 to a -2.5. The rest all moved into osteopenia. One part of hip even went -07. I was ecstatic. The two years prior to this scan I started following Better Bones Better Body. Here a...
