Faith in a system that isn't providing desirable results does seem to fit the

label of fanaticism.

From my current version of my D/calcium paper:

" Our nutrient guidelines were developed in the 1940’s to help make K-rations

that could keep our soldiers strong and healthy under conditions of war. The

original work has been reviewed and modified by the Institute of Medicine. The

calcium guidelines were increased in 1997 and while they have been reviewed

they haven’t been changed since. The increase was based on an estimation of

how

much calcium might be needed for better bone absorption.

Do we have stronger bones now as a nation then we did in 1996? That is a simple

question with a simple answer – no. Our nation’s diet was changed in 1997

and

since then chronic illness, obesity and osteoporosis rates have been expanding

quicker than our budgets or belts. "

How many bone spurs have to be surgically removed before we notice that calcium

supplements aren't building strong bones - they are building weak bodies over

time.

We cannot blame a health problem on dietary guidelines if the vast majority of

Americans don't even follow those recommendations.  Bone health is a good

example - it's far more complicated than just one or two individual nutrients.

For example, soda intake & high protein in the diet is associated with increased

risk for osteoporosis. Along with decreased weight bearing exercise. 

Both have

changed in the past few decades (for the worse).

It is sad how much time babies spend in those car seats - weight bearing

exercise is what rolling, crawling and getting in toddler trouble is all about.

I have been reading about the importance of weight bearing exercise. Perfect

health without that will still eventually lead to reduced bone mineralization. A

friend who has been successful in her ten year osteoperosis battle (no meds yet)

swears by weight bearing exercise. She walks, jogs, and takes care of a couple

horses. Based on her research that type of exercise helps the rest of the bones

more than the spine. She said that for the vertebrae to have the positive effect

that the inverted yoga poses are the only thing she's found research showing

bone remineralization benefits in the spine itself.

The inverted yoga poses are also supposed to benefit the thyroid. I need to roll

out my abandoned yoga mat and abandon this chair instead.

Does anyone have any links about soda or phosphorus and bones? I have thought

that is probably part of the problem but I haven't searched it specifically.

Protein load would increase renal load and magnesium losses.

Stupid moment - of course the pop is very acidic and it isn't just phosphorus

load to consider, it is phosphoric acid load combined increasing renal losses of

magnesium - and calcium probably. The pop drinkers aren't typically the milk

drinkers, so double whammy on their bone stores.

How else will we know what’s out there? What our clients or potential

customers hear and believe? I always want to know what the competition has to

say. It’s like war, and that’s why there are spies.

[Guest guest]

Sometimes it feels like some MDs are our enemies. I have found that

they want to give the patient any Rx for the new weight loss fad and

tell them to eat 500cal:( Some docs just say that patients do not want

to see a RD. Patients want hormone injections and appetite

suppressants! So many docs do not want to even think about nutrition.

One client called me wanting a consult, but then thought nutrition

would not really help since his doctor and his sister who is a MD

never told him about nutrition. On his first visit, he looked terrible

and malnourished. A week later he is in the hospital with multi organ

failure, anemia and bed sores! His nurse care taker and two MDs were

clueless!

That’s too bad. I wonder if this is a regional, state or location problem.

Since I left my employment and started my own practice/business, I found that

there are many docs wanting RDs to be in their clinics/offices to provide

nutrition consults.

It is national and if most primary care had RDs in their office, there

would be a shortage of RDs!
