OSTEOPOROSIS TAKES MANY FORMS.
|
A simple bone scan may not be a good indicator of osteoporosis. For one thing, these scans compare an older woman's bones to those of a healthy 35-year-old. And scans can be inaccurate and yield different results from one machine to another. It is also extremely important to note that osteoporosis takes many form–and can even be misdiagnosed if the hip, spine, and arm bones are all fairly healthy.
The first place where osteoporosis becomes evident is in the mouth. The bony tissues around the teeth begin to break down, teeth become loose, and gum disease becomes apparent. In these cases a special preparation of raw bone is needed. Bone itself appears to be a very static tissue–not very active in taking up and utilizing nutrients. This however is far from the truth. Bone is a dynamo, multipurpose tissue. It is a storehouse for minerals, including calcium, phosphorus, and manganese. It also stores proteins, amino acids, enzymes, and more. |

So when it comes to breaking the osteoporosis cycle that may start in the mouth, these kinds of nutrients are needed. It is so easy task to take supplements from raw bone, Bio Dent (SP) includes even the marrow. Imagine the fatty mess of dealing with raw bones. Yet this is what is needed .to get the job done. I don't know of any other company making a good raw bone supplement. As for bone meal, it is about as useful as eating sand. After days to weeks of boiling, all of the life force has been cooked out of it.
The same can be said about most cooked foods. The proteins are altered as some of the amino acids are destroyed or rendered inactive. The same goes for pasteurization of milk. This process destroys the enzyme phosphatase, making the phosphorus in milk almost useless to the human body.
But when the raw nutritional compounds are used, amazing changes take place. Unless the jaw bones and tooth sockets are destroyed by infection, teeth will tighten up in a matter of weeks on nine to 12 Bio-Dent daily. The deteriorating bone will regenerate itself. And this can be seen on pre and post x-rays.

Arthritis?
Lots of arthritis is or has its basis in osteoporosis. You may wonder, how can a disease of calcium buildup be caused by a disease of lack of calcium? As bones become weak and osteoporoic, the body will try to bolster itself by calcifying or making hard some of the cartilage and even some of the ligaments around bones. Often this buildup of calcium is the real cause of arthritis aches and pains. When a raw foods diet and supplements of raw bone are used, the body will slowly reabsorb the excess calcium buildup in the soft tissues. Rheumatoid arthritis is usually a different condition. It may or may not be associated with osteoporosis. A good raw bone protocol, along with potential treatment of bacteria in the joints, is the treatment of choice. |
What about calcium supplements? Doctors simply dismiss their patients with a prescription to take 1,200 mgs of calcium daily. While calcium is critical to good bone health, it is only one in a long list of nutrients needed. Raw bone, like supplies calcium along with the ancillary nutrients the body needs, in the right combinations and fractions .
When it comes to calcium, Lactate calcium is the form most easily assimilated. It is sometimes used in conjunction with the other products mentioned for treatment of people with osteoporosis and arthritis. But calcium is used mostly to supply bicarbonate (calcium bicarbonate) in the blood. This helps buffer all the acids from grains and cereals. It also balances the phosphoric acid from these same foods in order to provide for proper bone development and muscle activity.
This is particularly true with infants and young children, who need a constant supply of foods rich in calcium. The child who is deficient in calcium is indeed an unhappy child. This child will not be able to sit still because of excess nervous energy. And an acute deficiency of calcium in the blood leads to fevers~the end result being a child who is susceptible to infections, colds, flu, ear infections, and more.
Treatment of choice is always Congaplex by Standard Process, which combines Calcium Lactate, the whole vitamin C complex (Cataplex ACP) and a Thymus gland extract (Thymex). One an hour., even in infants, will usually resolve acute fevers and colds in eight to 12 hours. Thereafter a steady supply of Calcium Lactate is always needed.
For kids who are hyper and uncontrollable, be sure to supply them with adequate Calcium Lactate and the riboflavin~rich B vitamin complex. Six each of Calcium Lactate and Cataplex. G (the 8 vitamins needed in this kind of case) can often produce Miracles.

Allergies and Pain
In a strange way allergies, arthritis, and osteoporosis are all related. The patient who is too alkaline (suffers from alkalosis) is usually also prone to arthritic pains, bursitis, and allergies. Alkalosis is necessary for any allergic condition to develop. People who are too alkaline are often longtime antacid users, women in menopause, and folks who eat a 100% cooked-food diet. In a chronic state of alkalosis, calcium will not be utilized properly in the body. Instead it will settle into joints producing bursitis, neuritis, and arthritis. This type of person is usually nervous, irritable, allergic, has problems with lots of foods and drugs, suffers from insomnia, and will get much worse with any kind of heavy breathing exercises (which will make him or her more alkaline). |

The answer in these kinds of cases is of course to get back into an acid/alkaline balance. This will usually require eliminating antacids and eating at least one third of your foods raw. If you don't have ulcers, you may need to use one to two Cal-Amo tablets per meal for three months, slowly diminishing this dose to one per day. This will help you achieve acid/alkaline balance, maintaining calcium where it is needed and stopping its deposits from forming in the joints and causing bursitis, etc.
If you have trouble with bursitis that flares up from a bruise or overwork, it is another sign that you may be overly alkaline. Again, resolution of the alkalinity with diet changes and Gal-Amo will correct this condition. The same is often true of the pan-allergic person (allergic to almost everything). Cat-Amo and dietary changes accomplish this balance by supplying the acidifying chloride compounds to bring acid/alkaline balance at the cellular level. This in turn supports healthy joints, better respiratory and breathing function, and stronger bones. The opposite of the alkaline person is the acid type who is often diabetic and suffers from heart problems and rapid heart beat. These people need alkaline minerals including potassium and a low carbohydrate diet that excludes most grains and cereals.
So remember that osteoporosis is a lot more than just a bone scan. With everything related to the skeleton, the whole picture must be examined, and the whole nutritional spectrum must be employed. Anything less than that will give suboptimal results, if any at all.
