Guest guest Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 The post about ADF (eating alternate days) vs. CR every day was interesting to me because the mouse subjects showed greater gains on many biomarkers and also retained a bit more body fat, which I think would be an advantage in osteoporosis. Is anyone here doing that type of diet currently? My other plan for osteo and low body weight is to use a weight vest with an amount of weights that would equal what a " normal " weight person would use. So far I am using about 5 lbs. of weight and plan to go up to ten pounds max. I am not trying to be in the Incredible Hulk! I just want to imitate the body weight of a person at the mid-range for my height group. I don't want to add high amounts of weight because I am concerned about possible effects of axial loading on my spine. I plan to wear it at least 2 hours a day for the rest of my life except when circumstances don't permit. Any thoughts? I don't have osteo as far as I know but my mom, who does, told me to " plan on having it " so I am making my plans. a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
