Suggest Natural Remedies For Osteoporosis

I sent my question in the email you just received. I would like to get hard copies of the resource materials listed in that email since it is difficult for me to receive, read and learn from digital copies only. I am searching for information and advice so that I can avoid being put on a Fosomax regimen and follow a more natural plan for osteoporosis. Thank you for your help.

Hi,

Since I'm unable to examine you directly or deduce your age, thus following is necessary

1. Preventive Aspect:
i. Calcium intake; 1.0-1.5 g per day [banana, grapes, coriander, raisins, milk, green vegetables, lemon, mint, papaya, amla, guava, pineapple, turnip, tomato, apple, orange.
ii. Moderate Vitamin D intake or calcitriol: [carrot, beetroot,spinach, radish, mint, amalaki rasayan, soyabean, cucumber, cabbage, vitamin D fortified: pineapple/yogurt/ milk/dry mushroom/banana/cod liver oil/sunshine.
iii. Moderate Phosphorus intake: cheese, peanut butter, chicken, nuts, caramel, whole grain bread.
iv. Avoidance of alcohol, cigarette, tobacco.
v. Periodic assessment of skeletal status and bone mineral.
vi. Single Drug which is extremely helpful in osteoporosis is 'Shatavari' which can be explained with the help of its active chemical constituent- Steroidal Saponins which are Phytoestrogens. Phytoestrogens acts as SERM's [selective estrogen receptors modulators] and stimulate osteoblastosis and suppress osteoclastosis and thus help in preventing bone loss: Shatavari Churan [shatavari powder]
vii. Prescription Medicine which is effective in your condition is/are:
BONTON [Vasu].
REOSTEO [Himalaya]: mainly indicated for post menopausal/senile osteoporosis.

In modern medicine they also have SERM's [raloxifene, idoxifene, tamoxifene], the action is similar as described.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Munish Sood, Ayurveda Specialist
