Rating:  - If I could give it zero stars, I would
How ironic that ten years after the approval of Fosamax, we are now seeing the ACTUAL effects of this poison. Do yourself a favor...do your own research and don't believe the hype in this book. Sponataneous fractures of the femur, osteonecrosis of the jaw, atrial fibrillation. THESE are the REAL effects of Fosamax and other drugs in its class. Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance in your diet. (acidosis) A chemist once told me a couple of years back when I asked her if she'd ever consider taking ... Read More
Rating: - Some good information but....
You have to be suspicious of a book when it advertises a drug (Fosamax) on the front cover and promises a cure when there is no cure. I think the book also confuses bone density with bone strength and all too quickly recommends hormone treatment and Fosamax. Let the reader beware! I have ostopenia and osteoporosis by today's measurements.
Rating: - Cure?
This book hypes new drugs and cures for and prevention of osteoporosis. Well, they may work, but I am proof that despite taking Fosamax for 7 years since before menopause, and other drugs as well (miacalcin), it isn't the cure for everyone and, in fact, my condition has worsened to the point of fracturing my spine when I coughed. I have ALWAYS exercised, weight trained, and have a farm with lots of inherent "weight training",etc., My diet is extremely healthy- no processed foods, etc. We are ... Read More
Rating:  - Osteoporosis doesn't have to happen to you!
This book is a real eye opener. I thought it was a disease that old folks got. Now I know I need to start a plan right away for myself and my children to make sure we prevent this disease. Great book, easy to read and the suggestions on prevention are now a part of our daily lives.
Rating: - AMAZING! SUPERB!
Of all the books out, this book tells it like it is--and gives amazing hope for those with osteoporosis. It tells WHO is at risk, HOW osteoporosis destroys our bones, and HOW to resolve it--easily using FOODS, EXERCISE, LIFESTYLE CHANGES, and MEDICATIONS, if needed. Glad to have the book--hope it saves many lives. Read this--if no other--for it is easy to understand, interesting, and HELPFUL--outlining a complete program for keeping bones strong all your life. Loved it!
