Re: fosamax - again -- re: soy

I would say get the calcium citrate, and take it. Get it with the

magnesium, the D, and get the ipriflavones from soy. Stay away from

carbonated beverages, caffiene, and get the exercise the bones need. Others

on this list will tell you exactly what soy you need. If you can avoid the

Fosamax, do so.

I don't want to speak for alice, but i do want to clarify one thing -

ISOFLAVONES are from SOY. IPRAFLAVONES are considered a herb and are

synthetic and are for bone building.

I personally would not suggest anyone add extra soy or isoflavones to their

diet as there have been studies linking the extra soy to estrogen builders

which cause breast cancer. but thats a whole other subject.

What i and others suggest you take a Ipriflavone also known as Ostivone. It

is a herb that has been involved in numerous studies and research in Europe

and proven to help build bone and reduce breakdown. it is synthetic and does

not cause any side effects.

*IPRAflavone is a synthetic compound derived from phytoestrogens but do not

react or act like estrogen in the body. Japan, Hungary and Italy now

consider ipriflavone an approved treatment for osteoporosis.

*ISOflavones are a form of phytoestrogen and act like weak estrogen in the

body. only animal research has shown that a diet high in soy can improve

bone.

*info from Strong Women, Strong Bones by Miriam .

Boron is another mineral you want to add to your calcium, along with D and K

to boost the absorption. remember the magnesium needs to be in a 2:1 ratio

to the calcium and preferably taken at a different time than the calcium.

Magnesium taken AWAY from the calcium??? I take mine with my calcium and most

of the calcium has it in there! How far away from the calcium? If you take the

magnesium and calc at the same time, does that affect the absorbtion of the calc

or just the magnesium?
