What is Osteoporosis?
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become fragile and are more likely to break. If not prevented or if left untreated, osteoporosis can progress painlessly until a bone breaks. These broken bones, also known as fractures, occur typically in the hip, spine, and wrist. Any bone can be affected, but of special concern are fractures of the hip and spine.
A hip fracture almost always requires hospitalization and major surgery. It can impair a person’s ability to walk unassisted and may cause prolonged or permanent disability or even death. Spinal or vertebral fractures also have serious consequences, including loss of height, severe back pain, and deformity.
Do you know that women have a higher risk of dying from osteoporosis than from breast cancer?
Though both men and women can develop osteoporosis, it most commonly strikes women, especially in the U.S. As the population continues to age, the prevalence of osteoporosis will only increase. It is already a widespread condition, with 1 in 4 women and 1 in 8 men suffering from the disease. In the U.S., the risk of women developing osteoporosis is greater than the risks of uterine, ovarian, and breast cancer combined, making osteoporosis the fourth leading cause of death for American women.
Women are much more likely to develop osteoporosis than men because their bodies have proportionately less bone mass compared to men’s bodies. They also begin to lose bone mass at a much earlier age—typically starting around age 35. Most men do not start to experience noticeable bone loss until around age 70. Bone loss in women becomes more rapid in the first five years following menopause, which can begin as early as age 45 or younger. During this five year period, nearly all women in the U.S. will experience a five to ten percent reduction in bone mass. Once men start to lose bone mass to osteoporosis, their conditions can be equally as severe as those of women.
In addition to bone loss and bones becoming more brittle, fragile, and porous, other symptoms of osteoporosis include bone fractures, brittle fingernails, distorted posture, insomnia and restless behavior, joint pain, leg cramps (especially at night), loss of height, periodontal (gum) disease, and tooth loss. Often, these symptoms can manifest before people know that they have osteoporosis and can therefore act as early warning signs that bone loss is occurring.
What can you do to prevent osteoporosis?
There are natural cures for Osteoporosis that do not involve the use of dangerous pharmaceutical drugs. We at AlignLife recommend that you see your chiropractor regularly and do the following:
- EAT YOUR VEGETABLES! Vegetables help to preserve bones, and help fight this bone-thinning disease. Juicing is an excellent way to make fresh vegetables a major part of your healing diet.
- Take a good calcium supplement, one which is also rich in Magnesium.
- Consider supplementing with vitamin K or eating foods rich in vitamin K, such as leafy green vegetables. Vitamin K helps to send calcium into the bone matrix.
- Get enough vitamin D, ideally from proper sun exposure. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and therefore helps build bone density.
- Exercise. Studies show that exercise is just as important to bone health as eating a calcium-rich diet.
- Avoid sugar and sodas. These deplete bones of calcium.
Builds Your Bones or Your Money Back!
Bone Matrix is more than a calcium supplement. It is an advanced bone building formula that is so innovative it is guaranteed to increase bone mass or your money back.
Many calcium supplements are nothing but calcium. But if you asked one of the most renowned researchers on osteoporosis, Dr. Mildred Seeling, she would say that high levels of calcium with minimal magnesium will leave you with hard, yet brittle bones. Probably not what you bargained for.
This formulation will build the bone strong and hard because it is a revolutionary combination of 14 uniquely balanced, energized, and alkalinizing bone builders.
BONE BUILDING GUARANTEE:
If your bone health, as measured by DEXA or equivalent bone density assessment, does not IMPROVE after two years taking Bone Matrix, Alignlife will refund your money.
