My friend has been taking tablets for quite a while, she also has bone density tests etc. Recently she had a dental implant and she' had no end of problems.She read an article that said an ingredient in her tablet had a side effect that can cause a jaw condition, whereby the bone decreases. Does anyone know anything about this ingredient (Its phos or fos something)and what is a reliable and safe product for her to take?

Reply:I think that you should get lots of calcium through milk, cheese and other dairy products.
Reply:Surf the internet there is a mountain of information regarding supplements for this condition - I take calcium with magnesium to help with absorbtion.
Reply:Has your friend tried Calcichew-D 3
Reply:exercise is always good for increase bone strength. Many ppl as they get older get increasingly sedentary
Reply:I have slightly reduced bone density - other than the obvious answer of speak to the Dr, I was advised to eat three portions of dairy/calcium containing products anything from milk, cheese, yogurt, even tofu is good! Also you need Vitamin D to absorb the calcium - we can absorb this through the sun so time outside helps. Also very important is weight bearing exercise - anything that pounds through the body ie walking, aerobics running etc.
