The Natural Way to Reverse Osteoporosis

Posted by: Muryal | Comments (0)

Yes, there is a natural way to reverse osteoporosis and I am a living proof!

Recently Jenna remarked, “Oh, but my doctor said you can’t reverse

osteoporosis.”  To which I responded, “I know you can, because I did it – -the natural way, without any drugs.”

Jenna insisted that her doctor had told her she should take a bisphosphate to prevent osteoporosis. And that if she did get osteoporosis she would be unable to reverse it.

How sad that there is so much ignorance about this condition.

I sympathized with her fear. No one wants to get osteoporosis.  The statistics predict that…

  1. One half of all women over fifty will have an osteoporosis related fracture…
  2. The most common bone factures are the hip, spine, or wrist…
  3. Of those who sustain a fracture due to osteoporosis, many will never completely recover…

No wonder Jenna was worried…

Recent Bone Density Research

Greek Athlete

When you hear of the need for weight lifting to increase bone density, do you imagine something like the Greek  athletes in the picture at right?

You will probably be relieved to read the following quote from  a post December 4th, 2009  on the blog of: Not Just A Man’s World–

“I originally started lifting weights to build up some bone density, so I’ve been fascinated to see that there have been several bone density studies carried out, published, or reviewed recently.  Several of these have also piqued my interest because they have focussed on studies done in older men and women, especially those in their sixties.  This is the population where osteopenia and osteoporosis start to reveal themselves.

Osteopenia From Lack Of Exercise?

Posted by: Muryal | Comments (14)

Is it really possible  to get osteopenia from a lack of exercise?

Does the word exercise really frighten you? Do you immediately think of all the reasons you can’t exercise… You “can’t afford to join a gym”.  You” don’t have the time.”  You”don’t want to be out in the evening alone”…

Many years ago, when running became the popular fad, I heard an enthusiastic jogger say that anyone who did not run at least 5 miles a day was a “slob”.

As I resisted the idea of running at all, because I hate to sweat, I decided I would settle for “slob”.

Sedentary Lifestyle Contributes to Osteopenia

But after realizing that  a sedentary lifestyle contributes to coronary heart disease, many types of cancer, type II diabetes, osteoporosis and osteopenia, I finally realized I needed some type of exercise.

And after suffering 2 broken hips, I began gathering all the information I could find about how to prevent bone fractures. Exercise was one thing that was absolutely necessary.

The more interested I became in health, the more anxious I was to find an exercise that I would enjoy.  I tried exercise machines that I could use at home as a gym membership was not an option, but they required a lot of time and effort.

I  wanted to find some kind of exercise that would not require hours of my time.   I agree with Benjamin Franklin who said, “Do not squander time because that is the stuff life is made of.”

Slow Burn Fitness Revolution

So, I was thrilled when I learned of the Slow Burn Fitness Revolution by Fitness Expert Fred Hahn, Dr. Michael Eades and Dr. Mary Ann Eades.This book  combines medicine, exercise science, and weight training, is the result of a collaboration between a pair of physicians with a long history in weight control and a well known fitness expert.

A Good Osteopenia Diet

A Good Osteopenia Diet and a Healthy Weight Loss Diet are The Same

good-osteopenia-diet

Your diet to correct osteopenia should be the same as a diet that provides healthy weight loss and maintainence.

A friend of mine was very worried when a bone scan showed that she had some bone loss.   She asked me if I had any suggestions for a diet that would correct osteopenia and if a weight loss diet would interfere with her healthy bone goal.

She was surprised when I assured her that a healthy weight loss diet is exactly the same as  a diet to prevent or reverse bone loss.  One of her greatest errors in trying to lose weight was that she was avoiding fat. We need good fat in our diet to be healthy, to lose weight and also to have strong bones…

Eat Plenty of Eggs!

I encouraged my friend to eat lots of eggs for one of the best sources of protein to help her bones and her figure.

Have You Tried All The Weight Loss Programs With No Long Term Success?

Keep Healthy Weight Loss

My sympathy goes out to anyone who has a problem keeping weight off.  As a teenager,  I was a “Yo-Yo Dieter”.

I tried all the weight loss methods of  my day. And I really did lose weight! Every time!

My problem was that I gained it back easier than
I had lost it.  Every time!  I kept wondering, “WHY?”

After I got married and had my first child (that actually was “children” twins),  I was constantly so busy and had so little sleep that I actually
lost weight.   So I forgot about dieting  for several years.
