I know this might be something we do not think about much, but as women, we want to keep our bones as strong and healthy as possible. My grandma had osteoporosis for the majority of her upper years. And she had an arm that she broke multiple times. It was always in a sling. This is something that I want to prevent for you guys.
While there is medication that you can take for osteoporosis, there are also some bad side effects that come with it. Like jaw problems. My aunt took this medicine and then the dentist had to do multiple surgeries to fix her jaw. And being a pharmacist, I know about other side effects also.
But you can keep you bones healthy and strong, and even sometime grow them back. If you take some natural osteoporosis supplements, before you get to the point of needing medication. So please read on to find out how to help your bones.
Bone Nutrient Essential Complex
This is one of the best osteoporosis supplements to take, to keep your bones strong. It is a bone nutrient complex that has specific vitamins and minerals specifically for bone health. It has vitamin C, vitamin D, calcium, zinc, and lots of other minerals.
My oil company has a good quality bone nutrient complex. It helps slow down the osteoclasts which removes the old bone and builds up osteoblasts which fills in the holes and builds new bone. And this is the important part, when you take the medication on the market to help osteoporosis, it just slows down the osteoclasts from removing old bone BUT does nothing to make more osteoblasts that will build new bone. So there isn’t a lot of point to take the medication.
If you want it from there my oil company’s bone nutrient, go to my website. If you don’t want to use my company’s, that is totally fine. Just make sure that you get a good quality one that will have all the nutrients you need. Most of these bone nutrients, you take four of these capsules daily to keep those bones strong.
Good Quality Multi-Vitamin
I know I keep talking about taking a multi-vitamin in my posts. But it is very important to help you with your health. And osteoporosis is one of the health problems that can be slowed down by taking a multi-vitamin every day. Go to my blog post about how to pick out a good quality multi-vitamin. And just make sure that you take it daily to help get stronger bones, and lots of other things too!
Bedtime Oil Blend
This is a blend of essential oils for to work on your healthy bones while you sleep. The oils you use are soothing blend and cypress. You can either apply 2-5 drops of each in your hands and rub on the bottoms of your feet and legs. Do this every night before bed.
If you do not want to put the oils in your hands then you can definitely put them in a roller ball bottle and dilute with coconut oil. Put about 25 drops of soothing blend and 25 drops of cypress in a 10ml roller ball bottle. And fill the rest with coconut oil. Then just roll on your feet and legs every night. Here are some roller ball bottles and coconut oil that you can try out.
Morning Oil Blend
This is a blend of oils to help your bones throughout the day. The oils you use for this blend are helichrysum and oregano. These oils are a little “hot” which means that you will need to dilute these oils when you use them. So put about 20 drops each of helichrysum and oregano in a 10ml roller ball bottle. And fill the rest with coconut oil. Then you can apply to your feet and legs. Do this everyday when you wake up in the morning.
Digestive Enzyme Complex
This one might be a little confusing as to how it helps your bones (and is considered one of the osteoporosis supplements), but it does. So when you don’t have enough digestive enzymes to digest your food, then metabolic enzymes have to come in an digest the food, instead of doing the things they are supposed to do. Which is to grow, heal, and reproduce new cells. So if you take the digestive enzyme complex (at least 4 capsules a day), then you will have the digestive enzymes to digest your food. And then the metabolic enzymes can work on your cells, which includes making new bones and making your bones stronger.
I know that getting strong bones and making them healthier, is a hard thing to see. But if you take these osteoporosis supplements and use these essential oils. Then maybe you will not even have to worry about getting osteoporosis at all. Or if your doctor has already discussed your brittle bones with you, then you can use these things to actually reverse the break down of the bones. So please think about trying these things out. If you want any of these oils or supplements, please go to my oil website!
