As a start for the inflammatory/anti inflammatory... Omega 3 have an anti-inflammatory role (among other roles) Omega 6 have an inflammatory role (among other roles) We need both. We get both from diet only. The research says the best ratio is between 1:1 and 1:4. The standard western diet...

From the same paper... "...The passive deposition of calcium with aging into the valve leaflets was assumed to constitute a permanent degenerative mechanism associated with vascular calcification. It has been established that it is an active inflammatory process related to atherosclerosis..."...

This may not be much different than the link and quotes on the last page. I either absorbed a little more from it being a little less new to me or it has some different info. Either way, I want to study both papers again later. I did not realize how connected kidneys are to minerals in the body...

I've also started taking a pinch of Celtic sea salt when I drink a glass of water. Not every time because I don't have much trust the source of that idea. My sister shared a video of a woman teaching a workshop. I don't know who or where. She says taking the salt at the same time helps the water...

I just finished reading it. I agree it is well worth reading. Dh read it too, the next day, he asked me to empty all the salt shakers and fill them with celtic sea salt. I also saw that the Amish store carries Redmond Ancient Sea Salt, so we will try that too. An added benefit is these taste...

Since I can't find much info on osteoporosis relative to kidney donors, Dh suggested looking for info on the effects of mild kidney disease on bones. This Link is sort of a metastudy. In addition to collecting relevant studies "...in this study, we investigate the correlation between CKD and...

Yes. My son-in-law. So far, I've found quite a bit of information on the higher risk of bone problems for the recipients (well, people with kidney failure) but not much information about the donors.

Oh. This needs more looking into before I start taking much apple cider vinegar. I was about it for other reasons - I'm trying to get myself ready to be a kidney donor (lol, preferable a live donor). The transplant center cares about the cholesterol levels of the donors. That is what is keeping...

How is your vit K level? Vit K is needed for Vit D to do its job. I don't know how it is needed though. If it has to do with generating vit D, it might matter. If it is letting vit D function then it might not.

Source "..,A recent hip hop study—no not the music, we literally mean hopping—has shed some light on how to reduce fracture risk, specifically fractures from osteoporosis. The study, conducted through a special mapping technique at the University of Cambridge, demonstrated that just two minutes...

All spring and summer, I did pretty well at getting vitamin D by exposing my arms and legs to sunlight. I'm willing to get cold to get Vit D via sunlight but the cloud cover has consistently been too thick to allow that. Besides, the sun has to be high enough in the sky or it won't matter if...

This source says the skin of eggplant promotes bone density. And has many other benefits.n Nasunin is what provides the benefits - or one of the things that provides the benefits. The source above have a link to peer-reviewed papers about this. We tried eggplant in the garden for the first...

https://discernreport.com/why-the-new-york-times-advises-complete-avoidance-of-sunshine/ I would prefer a more positive title but the info on the advantages of sun exposure, how to do it safely, and the risks of avoiding the sun are well worth the read. I avoided the sun pretty much entirely...

Fyi, if you get a "screening" and they find what they are screening for then it becomes a "diagnostic" instead of a screening. Which means you pay for it because only screenings are covered. Any screening, not just bone density. When I went in when it was originally scheduled (last Jan or first...

I haven't looked any further. I'll let you know if/when I do.

A side effect of Synthroid (Levothyroxine) is osteoporosis. In looking at this source for other reasons, I noticed: "...Selenium is an essential nutrient for humans and other organisms, including bacteria and algae. As a constituent of 25 selenoproteins, it plays key roles in the immune...

According to the Salt Solution cookbook, "...When sodium intake increases, calcium excretion increases. Researchers think that your body leeches calcium from your bones to replace the calcium lost and keep your blood calcium levels stable. High-salt diets have been shown to increase calcium loss...

To help with getting enough vitamin D via sun exposure while reducing risk of sun damage.. Rule of thumb is "Rule of Nines" for adults: Head is 9% each arm is 9% abdomen is 9% Chest is 9% Back is 18% each leg is 18% That is both side of each arm and each leg, and the whole head. Elbow up is...

this website has some nice rules of thumb - like if your shadow is shorter than you are tall, then the sun is high enough to make vit D. Or check a weather app for UV index over 3. Notes from several websites about how much sun exposure for enough Vitamin D, and assuming healthy liver and...
