I know that bonebabe and others on this site recommend not doing any forward or side bends (twists). However, you may want to consult the literature, as there are differences of opinion in the matter. I, too, have osteoporosis - severe osteoporosis. However, I have always done bending and twisting in every direction, with absolutely no problem. As a matter of fact, I feel excellent when I do them, and have never had a fracture or break.
Good luck!!View Thread

Has anyone used Evorel conti as a second-line treatment for osteoporosis? If so, have you/did you experience any unwanted side effects?
Thank you.View Thread




I hope everyone out there knows that calcium is best absorbed along with vitamin C and away from dairy, so I am sure to take my supplement at a meal which doesn't include dairy, and, if possible, with a glass of orange juice.
I plan to have my bone density checked this summer, one year after the last check-up, and am keeping my fingers crossed that my numbers will have improved.
Good luck.View Thread
