Guest guest Posted April 10, 2002 Report Share Posted April 10, 2002 Doggone, I went through a very trying time with wasting syndrome, bone problems, etc. This very well is caused or contributed to by inability to absorb vitamins and minerals thru the gut. When that happens, the parathyroid gland (in the absence of boron, etc.) is unable to mineralize our bones. An article on Osteoporosis and another " Boron & Arthritis " from the following site educated me several years ago. I strongly recommend you read them. Go to these sites for these and many important articles: http://www.arthritistrust.org/resources/topics.htm http://www.arthritistrust.org/links/index.htm Last year, my physician had me do a bone density test. I was amazed when the machine showed my bones in the high range of normal -- and I have a bunch of years on those bones. bg > I don't " talk " much but I wanted to ask if anyone has successfully > treated their osteoporosis.
