[quote=Anonymous]Gut biomes run in families stronger than genes..... diet and biome dictate calcium absorption.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like Kelly and Mark, but she is too thin. She looks unhealthy. She’s probably at a higher risk for osteoporosis. [/quote]

She could already have osteoporosis. I’m Kelly’s age.

I was diagnosed at 48. For me, a family history but like Kelly, I was extremely thin throughout my entire adult life, mostly naturally but as a teen I had an ED. My doctors think menopause, genetics & ED all contributed to my osteoporosis at a relatively young age.[/quote]
Did you weight train or do cardio regularly? I’m curious about how much exercise can overcome genes when it comes to osteoporosis. [/quote]

PP and no weight training but HS and college cheerleader then aerobics instructor and student. More adult life was active. My late parents each had osteoporosis and now my older brothers (60/58) and younger sister (51) all have osteopenia and got scanned at my insistence around the time I got my diagnosis.

I now take Fosamax, walk 3.0 miles 4-5 days a week with a weighted vest and likely due to menopause, have added 15 + lbs to my frame. Recent Dexa scan showed significant (“remarkable”) improvement per my doctor. I had been told post-pregnancy loss by an endocrinologist that I needed to gain some weight before trying to become pregnant again. I did (maybe 5 lbs) and got pregnant soon thereafter. I’ve had 3DC.

So here I am in my mid 50s and am literally uncomfortable with my new 
body (this is the heaviest I’ve ever been) but know that to even attempt to be the weight I was as a young adult is futile and will wreck my health.

Clearly I have so much to say about all of this.[/quote][/quote]
