The headache, well, probably a meridian and/or energy channel in the brain.. I 
found Prill Water pops open all of your meridians, including the clogged ones 
in your head.. It also apparently harmonizes your chakras. I'm drinking it 
constantly now, I love it.

I leave the beads in always, and just tap off it, then refill it. Using RO 
water in my case, but distilled is fine too.. Not sure tap water is a good idea.

[Renee] We were just discussing silica from DE on another list. Here is a
message that is very pertinent to this, that someone posted. I just talked
to Dr Galen Knight who conducted the original research on DE as a metal
detox. He also did the lab analysis that appears on Earth Works Health site.
His opinion is that the Silica from DE is not absorbed, does not show up in
hair analysis and that the health claims made as to it being a good source
are not valid.

[Annie] I don't know that I agree with all of it. DE isn't sand. It's made
from the skeletons, bones if you will, of tiny creatures. So they can say
what they will, a lot of people taking DE have reported greater bone density
after taking DE for a while. And from what I've read DE is 80% or more
silica.

Farmers feed DE all the time to their animals for parasite control and also
to improve the animals' coats.

Weight exercises have been shown to be the best for rebuilding bone strength
  Which is exercising where you use weights with the body.  There's even a
vest for women that is weighted and you wear it for a few hours daily.  It
puts 'stress' on the body/bones, and the bones, like muscles, rebound by
building strength.

Also, you may want to look at Dr. Christopher's BFC tincture.  I believe
they call it something else now, but if you Google you will find it.  It
stands for Bone Flesh and Cartilage.  It does wonders for building
bones--BUT, I believe along with the name change they also took comfrey out
of the formula--and that is the very reason it worked so great!  Comfrey is
also called bone-knit because it rebuilds bones.  

If you Google comfrey you will see that the FDA has a rant against internal
use of it.  I believe there are very certain situations where ingesting
comfrey needs to be done carefully, since it MAY effect the liver.  Which
would mean that a person that already has a liver disease would not want
oral comfrey.  But--for everyone else, comfrey has been used internally
safely for centuries for just this very thing--building bones.

You should supplement with the building blocks of bone. These include: calcium, 
Vitamin D, Vitamin K, Vitamin C, boron, manganese, zinc, silica, strontium, B 
vitamins and magnesium. You may want to include Hyaluronic Acid and Boswella 
Serrata. Resveratrol is also beneficial. (Information links provided below).

From what I have seen, you need to increase IGF-1 levels to really reverse 
osteoporosis. Studies have shown that IGF-1 levels can be increased by 
exercise, prunes, creatine, whey protein, dairy products and zinc oxide. 
Information links are provided below.

 - Steve N


Hyaluronic Acid and Boswella Serrata:

http://www.wellnessresources.com/tips/articles/tips_for_building_strong_and_healthy_bones_new_breakthroughs_in_bone_h/

It has long been known that bone exists as a matrix of protein mainly in the 
form of collagen to which minerals are attached.  The protein matrix is 
responsible for the toughness and the minerals are responsible for the 
stiffness of bone.  In order to have strong bones it is vital to have a healthy 
relationship between the protein matrix and the attached minerals.
Up until the end of 2007 it was taught in all bone biology classes that the 
minerals were directly attached to protein molecules.  U.K. researchers from 
the University of Cambridge have quietly shocked the entire bone world and 
opened up a treasure-trove of natural options for individuals to strengthen 
bone. 
In a recent study they showed that it was actually sugar molecules that linked 
the minerals to the collagen-protein matrix.  These sugar molecules form the 
structural blueprint and the adhesive connections that make bone strength 
possible.  This is a dramatic new discovery.
Specifically, the sugar molecules identified by the researchers are called 
glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which means many sugars strung together in repeating 
units - a type of complex carbohydrate.  Using advanced imaging technology, the 
researchers proved, for the very first time, that these sugar molecules are 
responsible for the linking attachments between proteins and minerals that 
enable bone to form.  In fact, they are directly responsible for the 
symmetrical formation of bone that enables bone strength.  GAGs are directly 
responsible for modulating mineral size and crystalline structure.
The most important GAG is called Hyaluronic Acid (HA).  It is a combination of 
two sugars (D-Glucoronic Acid and N-Acetyl-Glucosamine) that form one unit 
referred to as a disaccharide.  One molecule of HA has as many as 10,000 
disaccharide units, making it a very large and long molecule.  For many years 
scientists thought this simple long molecule didn't do much of anything except 
fill space and provide joint lubrication.  Now scientists understand that HA 
acts as a template to assist in the formation of new body structure.  In other 
words, HA is to the human body what soil is to a crop.  
HA is the fundamental GAG, but it is used as a building block to form other 
types of GAGs that play unique and important roles in different body 
structures.  These other GAGs have an HA spine, and then use sulfur to form 
more specific GAG structures such as chondroitin sulfate (cartilage), keratin 
sulfate (cartilage and bone), dermatin sulfate (skin and blood vessels), and 
heparin sulfate (cell membranes).  GAGs are the fundamental alphabet that 
enables any kind of body tissue to form and have shape.
The new research is groundbreaking as it proves that GAG molecules are the 
essential glue that not only holds bone together but also guides the formation 
of a bone's proper three dimensional integrity and crystalline shape.  Without 
enough GAGs bone crystals form in an unregulated manner resulting in weaker 
bones.  
In practical terms this means that adding Hyaluronic Acid to a basic bone 
support program


 One of the major problems in maintaining healthy bones over the course of a 
lifetime is keeping a proper balance between osteoclasts (the demo crew) and 
osteoblasts (the new construction crew).  Both most act in harmony.  In cases 
of bone-related stress and wear and tear it appears osteoclasts get carried 
away and osteoblasts take a nap.
An answer to this problem has emerged from the new field of osteoimmunology.  
And once again, the discovery is of immense importance to any individual 
concerned about maintaining healthy bones.
This new science shows that macrophages (immune cells) and osteoclasts (the 
demo crew) come from the same parent cell.  Thus, as cells begin to take form 
from basic stem cells there are options as to what they might become.  A key 
switch has been identified called NFkappaB.  If the NFkappaB switch is too 
active, then too many osteoclasts are made.  If the NFkappaB switch is in more 
normal operation, then osteoclasts are produced at a more optimal level, likely 
in better balance with its companion, osteoblasts.  Once again, this is a 
revolutionary discovery in bone health.
The NF KappaB switch

Protein, milk and coffee:

http://www.2-bodybuilding.com/articles/1849-increase_igf-1_levels_natura
lly.html
 Recent studies in adult humans have consistently shown that high milk
consumption is associated with a 10 percent to 20 percent increase in
circulating IGF-1 levels in humans.10, 19-23 Even more interesting is
that a head-to-head study comparing milk to meat as a protein source has
shown that milk increases IGF-1 more profoundly than meat proteins.
Before I dive into the research, here is a brief summary of IGF-1 basics
and why increasing IGF-1 levels are important for increasing muscle
mass.

IGF-1: Anabolic And Anti-Catabolic
A number of studies have associated age-related declines in circulating
anabolic factors, including IGF-1 and testosterone, with the muscle
atrophy of aging, suggesting that these serum factors are important for
the maintenance of muscle mass. Scientists wanted to see what would
happen to muscle satellite cells of older mice if they restored their
serum levels of IGF-1 to those of young mice. Using a parabiosis model
(a parabiosis model surgically attaches the circulatory system of two
animals in this case, an older and a younger mouse), these researchers
showed that the circulating IGF-1 plays an important role in the
regenerative capabilities of skeletal muscle, including satellite cell
recruitment, as regenerative capacity was restored in aged mice provided
a young circulation.33 This study clearly shows that satellite cells of
aging muscle are influenced by serum levels of IGF-1, as chronic
exposure to serum from young animals restored the regenerative
capacities of satellite cells in old mice. Furthermore, exogenous IGF-1
applied to atrophied muscles in rats has been shown to significantly
increase muscle mass and satellite cell activity.

Protein Influences IGF-1 Concentrations
Concentrations of IGF-1 appear to be influenced by total calories,
protein intake and certain micronutrients (potassium, magnesium and
zinc), as shown in both animal and human studies.3 It has been reported
that the nutritional status, not only energy and amino acid restriction,
are critical regulators of IGF-1. For example, one study examined the
effect of protein or carbohydrate supplementation in conjunction with
strength and conditioning training on IGF-1 over a six-month period. The
results of this study indicated that a protein supplement consumed
during a strength and conditioning program led to an increase in plasma
concentrations of IGF-1 in those subjects compared with the
concentrations in a group of persons who also trained, but consumed a
calorically equivalent carbohydrate supplement.27 Endurance runners
represent the perfect diet model for how diet modifies IGF-1. Endurance
runners who consume a diet low in protein yet high in carbohydrates have
lower IGF-1 levels compared to sedentary adults consuming a Western
diet, which was high in protein and calories.15 This in conjunction with
other studies that have also found a substantial depressing effect of a
persistently used low-protein diet on circulating total and free IGF-1.
A certain amount of protein and carbohydrates are needed for IGF-1, but
the traditional high-protein/low-carbohydrate diet bodybuilders follow
causes a drop in serum levels of IGF-1 and insulin; however, muscle gene
expression of IGF-1 actually increases.34

Got IGF-1?
Most bodybuilders know that milk contains casein and is known as a slow
protein for its unique ability to coagulate in the small intestines and
release slowly into the bloodstream. Approximately 80 percent of the
protein in cows milk is casein and the remaining 20 percent is whey.
Casein proteins clot in low-pH solutions. Hence, the acidity in the
stomach makes casein clump into a gel, whereas whey remains soluble.
Both whey and casein contain specific proteins and peptides that may
have growth-stimulating effects. Additionally, the degradation of milk
proteins when they are exposed to the acid in the stomach results in
many other peptides that also may have specific effects.

Casein May Protect IGF-1 Degradation
More than just proteins, milk contains many other growth-enhancing
components. Milk

the traditional high-protein/low-carbohydrate diet bodybuilders follow
causes a drop in serum levels of IGF-1 and insulin; however, muscle gene
expression of IGF-1 actually increases.34

Got IGF-1?
Most bodybuilders know that milk contains casein and is known as a slow
protein for its unique ability to coagulate in the small intestines and
release slowly into the bloodstream. Approximately 80 percent of the
protein in cows milk is casein and the remaining 20 percent is whey.
Casein proteins clot in low-pH solutions. Hence, the acidity in the

  Kathy you need HEAPS of Magnesium, taken in the morning and if you are 
compelled to take any Calcium at all take a small amount as you go to bed, they 
counteract each other so if you take them together, as you have been for years, 
 you get no benefit

  I just bought two books to recommend to people:

  Author: Carolyn Dean
  Title: The Magnesium Miracle


  Author: Mark Sircus
  Title: Transdermal Magnesium Therapy

  If you need more details about Calc/Mac let me know

Hi All, I'm looking for treatment of Osteoporosis:  My Ob/GYN Dr. had a 
bone density test done on me , and I have Osteoporosis in one hip and my spine. 
 She put me on Bluebonnet Cal/Mag, but I've been taking Cal/Mag all these 
years.  Has anyone been through this?  Any suggestions?
Thanks..Kathy
