Reverse/Prevent OSTEOPOROSIS (Get Stronger Bones) 2024

- Is it possible to reverse osteoporosis and have stronger bones? I have seen it happen many times with my patients. You can prevent/reverse osteoporosis with the tips I give in this video, as well as prevent/reverse osteopenia. Large drug companies would rather you not know this, but you deserve to know.
Bones are living tissues that are constantly being remodeled, and they are built of what you have eaten over the past few years. Osteoclasts are specialized cells that remove old & damaged bone tissue. Following behind them are Osteoblasts which are cells that lay down new bone matrix in a very strategic way. Your diet and lifestyle determine if this remodeling process leads to stronger or weaker bones; what you do and what you eat literally decide how strong your bones will be. These specialized cells down dissolve old bone and lay down new bone in some willy-nilly fashion, they are very wise in this process of increasing your Meaningful Bond Density.
Most of the prescription medications for Osteoporosis Treatment/Prevention hi-jack the actions of these specialized cells. Although these medications can increase your overall bone density; this increased density often does not lead to meaningful increases in bone strength and flexibility...

Have BONE PAIN? Here's how to fix it: czcams.com/video/wJIRQkgTRh8/video.html
How to have collagen in diet if one is vegetarian/vegan coz all ur suggestions were meat/bone/fish/egg related. Plz advice
@@rredding thanks 🙏🙏
Thanks for the information.👍👍👍👍👍⚡⚡⚡
I know you said don't take calcium supplements but what if you had a gastric bypass? What do you do? So I thought about taking red algae for calcium and collagen supplements. Can I ask your thoughts?
@@sarahjenkins8963 Hi Sarah, I am not a doctor, but I would say that you try to avoid the artificial calcium supplements like calcium carbonate, other "pill forms" or calcium fortified foods..
You'll get a useful list if you Google "calcium rich natural foods".
I myself like yoghurt, cheese, dark leafy greens, seeds (hemp, pumpkin, sunflower), sardines, wild caught salmon...
Probably discussed here already: study vitamin D3, K2, magnesium, boron, protein, proper exercise.
"Even though Web MD says that you dannot reverse osteoporosis, ive seen multiple patients in my clinical get better from year to year!!"
I'm 83 years old and I've been osteopenic for a couple years. I've started eating egg shells, taking a multivitamin,Vitamin D3 and K2 and a keto diet. I've always been a carnivior so meat is no problem. My one failing is I don't get enough exercise. I'm a retired Nurse so as a Supervisor I walked many miles every shift in a big Hospital. Now I make myself watch Dr. Berry over and over, And I'm back into my walking routine and lifting canned food for my arms. I'm determined to reverse this oseopenia before I leave this earth. Thank you Dr. Berry.
Could you please explain how you do the lifting canned foods routine to strengthen your arms? God bless you, keep on keepin' on!!!
Egg shells are calcium carbonate. Look that up. It's not very good for you
Hello from Australia. Have you reversed it yet. How are you going? How do you eat the egg shells and is that form of calcium absorbed. Can you be sure the egg shells are clean enough. That is do the chickens get fed GMO corn or the like? Here in Aus it is practically impossible to get healthy enough eggs.
I had to explain to my clinician why I'm taking K2 with D3 today. She said you can't be taking too much of that it thickens your blood. I said thats K1. - K2 helps D3 into the bone out of the bloodstream. She said 'well I've learned something new today!' I told her that I was surprised that this information wasn't automatically added to elderly patients advice to offer notes.
@@tanmusicch my understanding of carnivore is only animal products. No cereal. No grains, rice, or lentils. No vegetables. No fruit. So meat, animal fat, dairy, game. Not honey. Dr Berry has good videos on what is carnivore diet.
1. Collagen friendly diet (fatty meats, bone broth)
2. Exercise (walk, resistance, jumping on trampoline)
3. Stop smoking, soft drinks, alcohol (no more than 2 daily)
4. Take Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2 (MK7)
5. Fix your hormones (only with bio-identical)
6. Decrease your stress
7. Protect your sleep
Thanks so much ❤️
Exactly what I was looking for: a list summary to post on my fridge. Thanks.
Thnx for the talking points. Am on it!❤️
All but the alcohol sounds like a good plan. Alcohol will destroy your bones, along with just about everything else. No amount of alcohol is safe.
Bioidentical hormones were horrible for me. Never again!
I reversed my osteopenia 🎉🎉🎉
How, Nancy ? Thank you.
Please tell us how? What did you do?
Can. I ask how you have managed this, what are you doing, taking.?😊
@@lizziesparks2952 I ALSO would like to know, please !
@@irinathomas6390 keto
I am 69 years old, and I have lupus along with its partner-in-crime, osteoporosis. I take vitamin D3 and K2 and Zinc+. I also do weight-bearing exercises at the gym, along with weight lifting. My bone density has improved; 30% in my spine, 10% in my hips and 5% in my neck. I'm looking forward to my next bone density test early next year.
Happy for you ! however you also need magnesium and boron .
May you be be blessed more & more !
@@mzaffar111 Are you talking to me ?
@@bgueberdenteich5206 I reckon I intended it for Phyllis.

This doctor is what a doctor *_should_* be, but _very few_ are.
Amen and AMEN!!!! ❤
What does this mean?
@@stretch1807 Really, you don't know?
@@stretch1807 it means HONEST.
So true. What has happened to the medical field? Dr. Berry talks like he really cares...
The OBGYN is always trying to get me on the meds that cause jaws to break. I told the doctor's assistant that I would not take them. She hugged me on my way out of the office and she whispered in my ear that she wouldn't take them either.
Are those the shots?
@@MFV77 It's a side effect of both the pills (bisophosphates) and shots like Prolia.
@@musicfan1427 thank you!
@@MFV77 No its Zometa, bisphosphenates; avoid them
That doctor is harming people. Sad
And THIS is why CZcams is (often) my doctor!
Yes, I DO have a doctor (a naturopath) who I see in real life, but if I’m not also educating myself, I’m never going to get the best results.
God is an amazing Creator. His wondrous works! And this man is a good doctor. Kudos!
Amen
Yeah, he is. I wish I could find a doctor like this who takes my insurance. Those A.Hole doctors had me take Fosamax about 11 years ago, increasing my risk of fractures. I wish I knew then what I know today. Of course, God is AWESOME and hopefully Jesus is coming back soon!
@@aprilmay1700 Are you saying that humans are smarter or more educated than God? Really ?????
@@aprilmay1700 so science makes our bones bend and not break? Science creates the rotation of good and bad bones to keep the body going? Science is what puts the cartilage in between the bones to prevent them from rubbing so we are not constantly in pain? I could keep going btw. Tell me something that man (Science) made that is more organized than what was naturally made. That in itself should tell you something.
@@aprilmay1700 The God in the King James or New King James Bible. Crack it open once in a while.
I enjoyed hearing some positive reinforcement about reversing osteoporosis. I am 82 and refused to take medications five years ago.
THANK YOU! Today I was diagnosed with osteoporisis and as a Christian I ALWAYS go against a doctor telling me I have something irreversalble because scripture says 'By HIS stripes I am healed'. I am on NO medications and lean more towards Chiropractors. I'd been indoors a lot and sendentary due to music productions and hot weather in Arizona. 2 years ago, I moved to Virginia where they have more townhomes and stairs. I fell down, broke wrist, which is when they discovered Osteopenia. I began taking Vitamin D3 as they said, but they never told me about the Vitamin K. Or Keto diet. I prayed in faith today to find answers and found your video....thanks for the hope and direction. Blessings
I was just diagnosed and I’m afraid to take meds . I’d rather do it naturally if it’s possible .
🙌🏾🕊
I pray and agree with you that you are healed by His stripes. Please pray also for me. Thank you!
So you trust an imaginary person over a doctor? Ok.
@@dragonwithagirltattoo598 I trust words that sound like HOPE. WHAT makes you think he's 'imaginary' and NOT a Doctor??? Do you not know that he could get sued for putting out bullcrap??? GEEZ. Are you a doctor that's pissed cuz you're losing patients or something?? Probably. I'm 65 and got to this age by using sense, not stupidity like a lot of young people. If it doesn't sound like hope, it's NOT coming from God. I was diagnosed long ago with LUPUS and would not accept it. Got prayer from lots of people and churches and within 1MONTH, they couldn't find a trace of LUPUS. Your name says alot about who YOU follow.
I just did my bone density today and they told me I am borderline osteopenia. I’m scared to death so listening to you made me feel better that I can reverse this.
Why would anybody put a thumbs down on this? Everything he mentioned is true and informative. Explained so very well so it can be understood. This is more information in one video than I have found in other videos I have watched so far or other social venues. I thank you Dr. Berry. I am now going to watch your other videos.
Good info but his videos are always WAY too long. He can not ramble and make it shorter
Only an evil person will do that, don’t worry evil 👿 are everywhere
People don’t like the truth.
@@donnaweigel1032 his videos are not way too long, he tells us exactly what we need to know nothing more, nothing less
Like they knew half of what he said 🙃
Doc, you are BRILLIANT in the content you present and the way you talk to patients. I've been an R.N. over 20 years and have never seen another doc with 10% of your good info and good sense. You are a true healer, so rare.
beverly fuller ditto from me Beverly! 🙌 👩⚕️
Bonnie Hoff next
beverly fuller I totally agree!
Mary agrees 100% What a wonderful, kind
Caring doctor!!
RN here I'll second that and then some. We don't have the bio identical stuff available here though. ( in the middle of nowhere and then go out some more and you'll find us. )
I just found out I have osteopenia in my spine and osteoporosis in my right hip ... do not want to take medications for this and have been looking for normal ways to improve my situation ... have been looking for two months for good information and finally found it here ... Dr Berry, you are the best !!!!!!!!!! ... you covered everything and in a way that it's understandable for the common person ... thank you !
I was diagnosed with having osteoporosis in my lower back in my 30s. That was 30 years ago. I haven’t had any issues. At the time, they gave me a prescription for something for the osteoporosis but I didn’t feel good about taking it. I found out later that one of the side effects was a chance of broken bones!
Crazy… a warning sign for sure!
I hav osteoporosis and recently had two severe wedge fractures at T6/7 really painful and it’s still painful 7 months later
My skin feel numb to
Most of the pain is around my left shoulder blade
I am now taking vitamin d
and aldrenateacid I think Iv spelt that wrong
Can I take any other supplements to build my bone
I can only walk 10 min a day as I have severe emphysema and can’t walk far
I’m also have an eating disorder so I don’t have a god relationship with food
I don’t drink I stopped smoking 8 months ago due to being very ill with a chest infection respiratory failure and pneumonia I then got covid just after recovery but I lost my mobility an awfull lot after covid
I get very breathless doing nothing somedays others I can walk just just distance
I need sone advise on what supplements to take I’m really scared my spine is going to fracture again and my kyphosis gets worse
I didn’t have kyphosis last yr so I’m assuming it caused by the fracture this yr ? Help please and are dried prunes food
This should be required viewing for every kid in high school, before they adopt poor lifestyles and habits.
Telling my kid about this and other habits all the time. Do they listen?
When you're a kid it feels like aging and sickness will never get you, only when you get your first backache around 30 do you go "so the legends are true..."
Parents are childrens first teachers
Loving (being strict with yourself first) example wins.
Wish i was told,Right?!!!!!
My son has really taken on the keto lifestyle and does a good amount of weight lifting. He doesn’t just take my word for stuff but does his own research.
Hi, Dr. Barry, my name is Grant and I am 75 years old male and I consider you one of my doctors even though you don't know me. One of the wonderful benefits of CZcams.Your videos are like having a doctor's appointment that I wished I could get from my own medical caregivers. I have followed your advice and even though I am 75 years old I believe that I could outwork out run out left and win a racquetball game Against 98% of anyone my age. Thank you keep up the good work.
Òi have osteoporosis I am in tablets for acid reflux have tried to half tablets and was cutting them own but I got very sick and had to take full tablet against I started vomiting and quiet sick HOW DO I GIVE THEM UP PLEASE I EAT WELL IRGANIC VEG NEVER ATE JUNK FOOD WOULD BE GREATFULL FOR ADVICE PLEASE
Dr. Berry you are the only one I have found to explain what we can do more naturally than any other research I have studied. I am 75 yrs old and was once a certified herbalist. I have certifications in natural healing but none in nutritional healing with food only herbs. Thank you so much for this video. My God bless your practice. I have just been told I have osteopenea so your video has helped me a lot.
,
I am a retired psychiatrist and I agree with you.
Hi doc trunks for such a important information .God bless u .
I am a 76 year old woman diagnosed with osteoporosis. Two specialists want to start me on a regimen of Evenity/Reclast OR Tymlos/Prolia infusions. None of them explain what these drugs do/don't do for me like you did in this video. My 'gut' has been screaming at me not to do these infusions and I will now follow my 'gut'. Thank you for such simply given information. I've never heard about K2-MK7 before. Will add that to my supplement regimen. I walk 2.5 miles every day and have for 30 years.
I’m 75 also doctors are annoyed even angry because I won’t take the bone meds! I agree.. my gut screams at me “ don’t take this stuff!”
I'm in a similar situation. I'll be 72 in 3 mos. I usually walk a mile 5x a week but an injury had me home bound. Up until this year I never was even diagnosed for Pina, but porosity now. I want to try a regimen before taking those infusions, my gut doesn't want to take them either!
@@catherinecrow5662 Not one doctor that I've seen locally has mentioned osteoclasts or osteoblasts. I didn't know about them at all or their jobs. Do doctors get a kickback from pushing infusions and the like? Catherine Crow, if you're unable to walk, maybe consider lifting light weights with your arms. Even cans of soup will do in a pinch. I walk AND do small weight-lifting with real weights.
@geneandbobiallard9089 I've wondered about the BigPharm push myself.
Just looking at the side effects of these infusion, heart attacks, 'death', etc !!!
My doctor discussed options and I made the decision to take Evenity. I had 12 months of injections. The injections are slightly uncomfortable but not awful. The first couple months I had a headache that lasted a day or so after the injections. I was also tired and had insomnia for a few days after the injections, and a little swelling near the injection site. I completed my last injection this month, and received my DEXA results today. DEXA improved in the spine by 41%. I meet with my doctor in a couple weeks to discuss all results and the plan going forward. I continue to eat a healthy diet, exercise, take Vitamin D, K2-MK7, magnesium, and calcium from my diet.
He speaks so sincerely, i love his accent.
My last DEXA test, I was 68 had changed a tad bit from the previous year. I refused to take the Drugs for Osteoporosis because of the horrible side effects. She got so mad at me she walked out the examine room (needless to say this was my last visit to that office). I also do not take calcium because it can build up in your arteries and cause blockages.. I do take Vitamin D 3 &K 2. Dr. Berry I'm glad I found your CZcams on Prevent or Reverse Osteoporosis.
what's your point ?
Good for you Elaine.
Vitamin k?
DEXA recently ?
@@lilliemoss6895 K2 - it activates to proteins; one to keep calcium out of soft tissue and arteries; the other to actually direct and drive calcium that we already have enough of, just need to carboxylate and activate those proteins. D3 is to help pull the calcium out of the gut. Not K1, that is found in leafy greens, and is for blot clotting, so not to bleed to death. K2 is the opposite, with a mild blood thinning. Best wishes~
The explanation about the meaningful relation between osteoclasts and osteoblasts and how medication can alter it is very helpful.
I agree. I had never heard this explanation before. Good info.
I'm only 29 but 10+ years of having an eating disorder and poor digestion as well as a few years of being vegan have reduced my bone density. I'm hoping that I'll be able to reverse at least some of the damage.
You can do it, go for it! ❤
@@newschaser6414 thank you!
You absolutely can do it… You have youth on your side👍
You have the gift of now learning about good health at a young age! I did not discover Dr. Berry and all the others until age 62, three years ago, and I have been able to reverse many things already. My mantra now is “ eat a Proper Human Diet”! Thanks to Dr. Berry❤
Here are the main points summarised and the approx time in the video the point is raised. Thanks a lot Dr Berry!:
Increases risk of osteoporosis:
*
Drinking more than 2 glasses of alcohol a day increases your risk of osteoporosis 5:50
*
Smoking 6:00
*
Vitamin D and K2 deficiency 6:20
*
Lots of grains, sugars, and processed foods in your diet 6:35
*
Inactivity 6:45
*
Drinking soft drinks 7:15
*
Consumption of Proton Pump Inhibitors and H2 Blocker medications that reduce atomic acidity 7:30
*
Low hormones 8:35
*
Diabetic, steroid and lithium medications 8:50
DEXA Scanner shows bone health
How to prevent or reverse osteoporosis:
*
Avoid sugar and processed carbs and eat collagen and minerals from fatty meats and the skin from the meat as it contains collagen. Eat the gristle in meats. The membrane on the back of ribs is gristle. The membrane on a hard-boiled egg is pure collagen. Make a homemade bone broth. 11:05
*
Eat good sources of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and boron minerals. Can take a supplement for the minerals, but don't take a Calcium supplement as they don't help. Calcium-rich foods are green foods. Using egg shells in bone broth adds more calcium. 12:20
*
Weight-bearing and resistance training exercises like walking, lifting weights and strenuous activity (like a bit of jogging). Lots of running can decrease bone density. 13:05
*
Stop smoking and drinking soft drinks 14:40
*
Get off Diabetic, steroid and lithium medications 15:00
*
Stop drinking more than 2 alcoholic drinks a day 15:10
*
Take vitamin D if you're not eating enough pastured fatty foods and sunlight 15:35
*
Have a vitamin K2 supplement like a MK7 15:55
*
Fix your hormones. Get a hormone panel check if you are over 40. Low testosterone in men increases the risk of osteoporosis, as does low testosterone, progesterone, and estrogen in women. If your hormones are low take bioidentical hormones, not synthetic hormones as these increase the risk of cancer and heart disease 16:25
*
Try to keep stress low and get adequate sleep. Chronic high cortisol decreases bone density 17:10
*
Don't depend on prescription medications for osteoporosis 18:20
You deserve a medal..
You sure do deserve a medal or two. 🎖 🏅 Thank you!
thank you, you made it much easier for me to follow and notes i didn't get, you provided. thank you so much.
Thank you! for summarizing this

I have been taking D3 with MK-7 for some time. I recently began taking this combination just before going to bed after listening to videos by Dr. Stasha Gominak. I do not get up as often at night to take care of my bladder. I wake up in the morning feeling as if I actually slept. Taking D3 before the body's repair cycle (sleep) may be very helpful for overall health.
Dr. Berry, I owe you more than I can express in mere words. I was blessed to find you 6 months ago on CZcams.
I stated BBBE shortly after and feel amazing!
I have lost 41 lbs, have increased energy, and skin is clearer & brighter.
I will be 70 in September!
THANK YOU, DR. BERRY!
YOU ROCK!!! I have shared your channel with everyone I can think of.
It's time for people to become educated to the truth of the PHD!
Hello Dr Berry I was diagnosed with Osteoporosis some years ago and I have been doing my best to reverse it. Your video was very useful. Thank You.
How do you feel now?
Thank you so much :) Just to let you know that I had an appointment with my doctor yesterday following my dexa scan and it's confirmed. No more osteoporosis, so I know it can be done.
Oh--good for you! Could you tell us the steps you took?
Louise
What did you do??? PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, let us know. Have a Blessed day🌹
Yes please. More info
Obviously lying, if she can't reply to you all.
@@seasands3486 Sorry I took so long ;) I just followed a strict ketogenic diet since january 2019. I reversed my T2 diabetes, my hypertension, my cholesterol and my osteoporosis and I didn't mention my arthritis ;)
This was a good video, I can feel it in my bones.
Lol!
☝🏼😎🤣🤓
Lol 😆 cute 🥰
Dr Berry - thank you so much for this video. I recently broke my wrist after an horrendous fall in the garden and was subsequently given a DEXA scan. The results indicated severe osteoporosis of the spine and osteopenia in my neck and hip. I’m 69 years’ old and the only treatment I was offered was a Zoledronic acid (Aclasta) infusion. The diagnosis was scary and I was very upset about it. I’ve been reading the literature I was given by the hospital about the Zoledronic acid and the side effects listed are numerous and very concerning ie, the jaw bone exposure risk, thigh bone fractures and a common one being Atrial Fibrillation! (1 in 10 people). I understand this can lead to strokes. After watching your video, I have decided not to have the infusion and will do my best to improve/reverse my osteoporosis by natural means. Thank you again
Had a fall 6months ago open fracture so reduced mobility my exray is suggestive of low bone density your video is very helpful and will follow your advice thanks
Thank you for sharing this!
Me too! Not taking any meds. I've had three spinal fractures in 4 years. The healing process can be 3 months each time but I do get better, not perfect i still have pain. It started when I was 62. I'm going to try this carnivore diet and see if I can get more improvement.
How are you doing now?
@@iowafarmgirlinPA I’m doing ok but getting lots of flack and negativity from doctors and physios who keep trying to persuade me to have the infusion. I’m still resisting it, though. I have unexplained pains in both my lower legs which is a bit concerning and which stopped me walking for a while but despite the pains I’ve started walking again and am trying to ignore the pains. I’m very aware of any trip hazards around and I keep alert to that. I do weight bearing exercises with a stretch band and take various supplements. I do my best not to bend over from the waist (as I always did) so as to protect my spine. I’m just basically keeping my fingers crossed. 😊🤞
I totally agree with all of this as a nurse. And if fact, I even wrote a book called “Peace Management” because of the negative impact of stress on the body. Thank you for this video!!!
Oooohhh just checked it out!😍 Going to try & get myself a copy! Sounds like exactly what i need at this point in time 🙏❤
Where is book listed to review and purchase?
Cat we talk about just how this happens truthfully if diet is s key then we need to find the lock
I have a friend who is 93 years old. A former scientist, he strongly recommends taking borax diluted in filtered water every day. He showed me his bone density scans before and after taking borax. He had osteopenia before taking boron. He showed me his scan after taking borax for awhile. His bone density is better than mine and I am 25 years younger than he is! He is very active for his age and looks much younger than his age.
Hi can you remember how much borax your friend took ? Please ,8m just starting chemotherapy for 5 years and a side effect is osteoporosis ,
How 🤔
borax or boron? They're not the same
Borax? Do you mean boron?
@@lisag18 Some people take Borax therapeutically. Alternatively, you can use boron.
i'm 62, work as a gardener, frequently load-bearing work. I also metal detect! Great exercise because you are walking and swinging a detector and carrying a spade for hours. In my outdoor work and hobby I often trip and fall and I always bounce.
Women after menopause have to do load bearing exercise. Carry that shopping.
Respect !
At age 42 a bad auto accident left be pretty bad shape, I had to give up my nursing career of 31 yrs & have a hip replacement, now I have cervical & lumbar degeneration of the spine due to being ejected from the truck when it rolled. So far I’ve lost 1.5” in height and I’ve been getting? (Steroid) injections in my spine for pain. Just recently I noticed my thigh muscles we’re getting very soft, I’ve read where steroids will do this. Any advice? I’m due for another injection next week & seriously thinking of canceling my appointment. I go to a chiropractor also which keeps me going, he told me that he doesn’t see how I am walking, (he looked at my spinal xrays). I think in order to get my pain meds, you got to take the injections, which is wrong.
Walking isn't weigh bearing exercise
@@michelles2299 You need to read the comment properly. It is if you carry a spade and a metal detector. it is if you carry shopping. It is if you push a wheel barrow full of weeds.
@@michelles2299
Just wrong.... Google and read more references before making false statements.
"But for an aerobic activity to benefit your bones, it needs to be weight bearing."
This means you are on your feet, moving your body against gravity. Dancing and walking are weight-bearing activities, but cycling and swimming are not."
Really good video. I've been actively working on reversing my severe osteoporosis. It has improved 16% by doing a lot of what he is talking about. I am still in a dangerous place. I've broken quite a few bones. A squeezed hug will fracture a rib. Laying my side with my arm underneath and reaching over and pressing on my arm will fracture a rib. I have hurt more ribs than I can count. I've broken both wrists (and I'm a professional keyboard player), stress fractured my back, broke my left elbow which is now wrapped in titanium with 13 screws, I've had a total shoulder replacement, and my last fall broke my left leg just below the hip. No hip replacement, but a rod was put down my thigh bone. Walking on it is painful and my balance is not good. I am so scared of falling. I use a rollator/transport chair chair to walk or be pushed if the pain is too bad. I am "only" 69. I plan on living much longer. My quality of life is important. Don't think this won't happen to you. My grandmother died only months after a hip replacement. My mother had osteopenia and died a few years after a stroke caused by diabetes and she didn't change her diet. (I found a half eaten bag of marshmallows hidden behind a couch cushion. These women lived to 89 and 91. Long lives, but the quality of those last years was not what I want. Old age should not be painful. You don't have to be sick and on a ton of meds. But you can't change it in the end. Having a scrappy diet is NOT worth the price you will pay.
Wow you have it worse than I do I'm at a phase right now where my back always goes out for the simplest activity which in turn makes me inactive and on bedrest with a heating pad. Tired of the pain and the persistent body aches. I'm glad to see there are others here that attest to this diet actually helping.
@Robert Arias Everyone is different & no one's pain or condition is worse. It belongs to you & only you know how you truly feel. The injection they are giving me is called Prolia. It's just an injection in the back of your arm. Every 6 months. No invusion, honestly I was surprised. Nothing personal about Dr. Ozzie that someone mentioned, but leave your Dr's for advice. The best thing is it can rebuild your bone. Good luck !! You always have a friend. ❤️
My Dad, who died at age 85, always told me getting old isn’t for sissies. Boy I see what he was talking about.
OMG. I feel very sorry for you and hope you will beat your osteoporosis. Good luck. I've got Charcot foot and I wonder if I can cure/reverse it. I'm going to the hospital soon with this Charcot foot, but I'd rather be able to rely on myself and know how to help myself.
Wow that must be difficult. I am 68 and recently stepped and missed the plank on a 2 meter high scaffold, landed flat on my back on concrete, got up and carried on, not even a bruise. Last week missed the top step on a steep staircase carrying a load of electric tools. Head, torso and lead leg went down, the other leg bent backward. Thought hip might go but no problem. I guess bone health like anything can go wrong decades before an event but I feel the last 6 years on keto with CrossFit training and palates and the last year on meat & water with regular HIT weight training has probably been a plus.
Dr Berry this was an amazing informative video. I am young 55yrs with severe OP already. I will start following all your tips and seriously PRAY
🙏🙏
I saw this thing called OsteoPro, it's a supplement. I thought I would mention it.. I'm considering it.
BAD ADVICE!

Osteoporosis is caused by consuming acid forming animal protein. And refined junk food. Nothing you can take helps unless the acid forming foods are eliminated!
Me too
I have osteoporosis. Was on fosomax for about a year. It started deteriorating my jaw bone causing me severe dental issues. Stopped taking it. Trying to build up my bone density through diet and exercise. Great video thank you.
Hallo! Thank you for sharing the information watching from dubai ❤
Concentrate on magnesium in the diet. Not calcium. Eat an alkaline forming diet.
Lots of raw fruits and veggies. Nuts and seeds and whole grains. Avoid all dairy except butter.
Reduce or eliminate meat.
Exercise before breakfast.

Most adults develop an intolerance to milk. And any kind of cheese is a highly concentrated form of milk.
Also there are no health benefits from consuming milk.
If I had a doctor like this I'd actually go to the doctors.
Most don't give a f**k about you.
This has been so helpful. I was diagnosed 9 months ago at 53 with Osteoporosis and the dr lay out a lifetime plan of Forteo, a bisphosphonate, followed by Prolia for the rest of my life! I thought my life as I knew it was over. After much research and being pointed in the direction of the right dr, I no longer feel that way. The only break I have ever suffered was a torsion break and an ACL tear as a result of a fall skiing. I am taking no meds other that a high quality calcium, D k2, Collagen Peptides,and Hydrochlorothiazide as they found my kidneys were leaking calcium. That was something I didn’t hear you mention and I’d love to hear how much you think that contributed to my Osteoporosis. I don’t smoke , but I did for many years, never drink soda, haven’t had an alcoholic drink in 15 years and lift weights 3x a week and walk 2 miles every day. However I am post menopausal and my estrogen is tanked. Can’t take hormones because of breast cancer in 2 aunts puts me at higher risk. Thank you for this very informative video.
But Stacy, correct me if I am wrong…..I thought Dr. Berry says ( other than food/sunlight ) NOT to take calcium supplements.
We humans can be a participant in every area of our lives especially our mental and physical health. My practitioner and I are partners this means I help my doctor take care of me by doing my research and paying attention to my total body. Thanks for sharing such needed knowledge. Happy 2024
As soon as you said osteoporosis can be reversed I started to cry
Because I'm scared and I really really really hope I can reverse this I'm doing everything I can with diet exercise currently I can't take supplements for 3 months but when I can start taking supplements again I really hope I can reverse this and heal my bones for what I've done to them, just like we want people to forgive us I hope our bodies can forgive us too
I hope your feeling better ❤
Why I didn't see this video before? Thanks Dr. KenDBerry, God bless you.
Thank you so much for this video on Osteoporosis. Just recently had a bone scan done and it revealed i have osteopenia in my left hip and lower spine/back. I have been doing exercises daily for flexibility, balance, and bone strengthening. Your tips are most helpful. I made note of what you stated in the steps you suggested for strengthening bone density.
Get info now bf you break that femur stem like me not joking not the pain the sedentary. I do all the exercises 3X and my upper body weight resistance . Special exercises to do see , Bob and Brad Utubes. March. Drop from chin up bar any vibration plates. Ride recombinant bike at first for cardio. Gym membership. Best bone density is found in pole vaulting bc of that stimulates bone growth. I wish I had been forewarned osteopenia.
I am 60 and despite losing my ovaries to cancer 20 yrs ago, I've only recently had my first Dexa scan (new Dr!). I have 'SEVERE' osteoporosis... My diet has always been excellent (very intentional) and I exercise (power walk and jog) daily... but l have had no estrogen since I was 40. I gather it is too late to do anything about the hormone situation... Dr recommend more jogging . This video is the first actually education on osteoporosis I have had. Thank-you for making it!
Go to your doctor and get on HRT it’s not to late at all ❤️🙏❤️
I'm 65 and take bioidenticle hormones.
I’m being treated with lupron shots every 3 months and arimidex everyday to prevent the breast cancer from returning. The oncologist told me to take vitamin D3, that’s it. I’ve gotten more info from you than any other doctor. Thank you so much! Will definitely share this video with more ppl 👍🏼

Also look at taking Milk Thistle. It doesn’t interfere with medications but does help your liver regenerate & detox after chemo drugs. Because of pollution, chemical additives, etc in our food I recommend everyone over age 45 take Milk Thistle.
@@chanchan5349 will try it. Thanks!
Eat meat only meat can restructure your collagen and heal your cancer. Zero carbs
@@rosalbadelriogarcia9598 Actually specifically from grass fed beef, free range chicken, wild caught - never farm raised fish, & egg shell membrane.
There are Collagen products out now but look for Type I, II, III, IV, V, X is my understanding.
Thank you so much for this. I was diagnosed with Ostopenia and 2.6 Osteoporosis in my lower back. Dr right away wanted to prescribe Fosamax and I said no. Then he prescribed Evista and after watching this I most definitely will not be taking these drugs. I do power walks (4miles) 5 days a week plus cardio and light weight training. I think this is what kept this from being worse than it is. I have Arthritis pretty bad but I push through.
Same problem with me and having to much back pain and heels pain Do u have pain as I have
Thas me no way I goin to take anything the push on me...
Why would you not want to try these? Just curious……
Drink Turmeric tea. 1 tsp. Turmeric in a cup with a small pinch of black pepper. Pour on hot water. The black pepper increases the Turmeric’s ability to cross the blood brain barrier. If you add some fat (MCT oil, coconut oil heavy cream) you get a double whammy for crossing the blood brain barrier. I’ve seen a lady that had crippled fingers drink the Turmeric tea and resulted in having normal fingers. I was truly amazed.
Cutting out all wheat products helps cutting down on inflammation . Monsanto changed the seeds , wheat has been genetical modified !
Thank you so much. Your helpful step by step how to take care of the osteoporosis is so simple and easy to understand. So hard to get rid of carbs, but I will try. God bless you.
OH my gosh this is unbelievable!!!!! Yes this is most encouraging !!!! It makes me feel like I have a new lease on life!!!! Will listen again and again and follow your suggestions....THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Wow! you blew my mind Dr. Berry! My teeth were breaking in pieces while chewing, so Im changing the way I think, eat, live and love everything! However I could not believe something in my body isn't able to Regenerate. You are life changing for so many people!!! Deep Gratitude!!
I have them both. It hurts so bad I had to take a pain and nerve pill gabapentin. I have been on this keto for about 4 days and I'm not as stiff as I use to be. I'm 74 years old. I also have Fibromyalgia, stage 3 kidney disease and a blocked heart with congestive heart failure. I really need this. I'm in an assisted living facility and all do is serve things with all lot of salt and sugar in it. I cook my own meals now and I love it. Not suppose to and they may kick me out. Anyway I hope and pray 🙏😌 we will get well. Thanks to Dr Berry 🙌🙏😀👍
Glenda, Bless You! You are doing a fabulous job! Keep it up!!
Thank you so much for all your comments, helps a lot in my healing process
I'm so glad I found your channel. Your honesty is so refreshing.
i really like this guy, he definitely knows his stuff about bone health
Thank you for telling us what doctors don't. God bless.
So true. This is such important info, but all the doctors want to talk about is medicine.
I'm very fortunate, I decided to take HRT even before I needed it The result has been very strong bones.
Excellent video, well put together and very comprehensive. Great for an overall picture.
This is the best explanation i ever heard from a doctor👍👍👍
Thank you so much! Love it🤗
Your charm helps those such as myself become captivated to your every word. Praise God for that. I love a man who keeps his wife in the convo. You are educated, personable and caring. Love your anti- vaping and smoking clips. All good things to you, my friend.
Dr Berry, you are giving me some hope!
Faisal Memon
Sir? You mean madam.....
Love you! What a warrior! I am following your amazing advice and am hopeful to regain good health!
I always appreciate the teaching of Dr Berry. He's very very thorough. Like a good teacher, he doesn't assume you know anything, because some people have been taught wrongly. The message is for everyone, even the totally misinformed. And for some, it's very important to know the "why" before we will do the "what". I try to be a very informed person; but sometimes, information has changed.
I am not sure I agree with some of Dr Berrys talking points. As you say, information must always be updated and can change. He states that being sedentary can lead to osteoporosis because the bones are not stressed enough, implying that stressing bones increasing bone health. However, I have noticed that being lazy can cause tension or stress, at least on the muscles, perhaps even the bones. But laziness does not strengthen muscles even though it stresses or strains them. Likewise, perhaps this can be extrapolated to bones, perhaps exercise helps bones but not because of the stress, but due to other factors. I am not sure though.
Blood flow…it’s a different type of stress that a sedentary lifestyle puts on the bones…exercise is a more uniform type of stress that brings more blood flow and nutrients to the bones…the body’s system gets lazy too..
@earthsceience129 Walking is a weight-bearing exercise. Sitting is now looked upon as detrimental to the body as smoking.
I went Carnivore 31 days ago.... along with the steady weight loss, THE most amazing thing about all of this has been my elevated mood (due to the alleviation of my acid reflux and that I am no longer snoring... Thus I get a restful, full night's sleep), loss of mid-morning/afternoon brain fog and the almost 100% reversal of my Osteoarthritis!! My hands and feet no longer tingle and ache in the morning!! It's nothing short of complete turnaround from symptoms and issues I thought I was going to have to suffer for the rest of my life with at some level!!
What exactly do you eat?
Jerry do you eat red meat or fish? Can you share more info? Thanks!
Did you do carnivore with no dairy?
Seriously man how the hey are majority of docs not being real docs like you ?!?!?! Insanity!
Great advice!
SUPER INFORMATIVE!
You’ve given me hope! I refused the medication because of the awful potential side effects. Medics not happy at all. I take vit D3 and do some walking but probably not enough but usually about 5 miles at each outing. I eat very healthily do not drink or smoke. I am a young 73 and slim build. I liked the bit about bone broth and fatty meat. Great believer in food is our medicine so I’ll give that a go. Thank you so much. I don’t get enough sunshine because I live in the UK and it just loves to rain here 😊 My T score has now dropped from osteopenia to osteoporosis -2.5 I think. But I will carry on with the vitamin D as I was very low. I’m non dairy too but eat loads of greens. I’m a fairly good girl 👍🤗
Perhaps instead of long walks (which are great for weight loss), switch to shorter walks + weight-bearing exercises for increasing bone density. Good luck!
Take K2 also.
Greens have anti nutrients as well as oxalate poison.
I'm an active 90 year old. I still stand straight, but my problem is the cartilage in my spine has collapsed so that I am 2 inches shorter. I did break my arm 4 years ago in a fall, but it healed in 3 weeks instead of the usual 6 to 8 weeks. I attribute this to listening to 20 HZ - the frequency of a cat's purr, for and hour or more each day. Now if only I could rebuild that cartilage.
Where can I find that FREQUENCY?
@@jamieethridge9493 CZcams has a lot of frequency videos I also have a vibrating board that vibrates at that frequency it's made by Soloflex
You could consult a Registered Homeopath (via screen or phone, if not face-to-face). It is an amazing medicine.

Great video! Thanks for your work!
What a great Dr. ❤
I'm 2 months ago I became paralyzed when my spine collapse upon itself due to weak bones. I was unaware of the severity of my condition even though I was keeping tabs on it. I have to be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life now. Recommend you take the best possible care of your bones and that means a lot of different things for different people.
how old are you?
Thank you for your recommendation, are you Okay now, I pray God help you dear.I wish to hear good news from you.
Sorry to hear that.
Maybe consider seeing an Ayurveda or TCM practitioner. They sometime can help.
There is also seated/chair tai chi that might help building up muscles and bone density. Or use light weights.
Sorry to hear that happened. What were your t scores?
After my unnecessary hysterectomy (fear based medicine) my DEXA scan plummeted. The doctors (3 of them) insisted I should take Fosamax. I refused, they looked at me as if I was ? crazy. I went to my chiropractor and he started my on D3 w/K2 and a special formula with collagen and calcium. Plus told me to get walking. I make my own calcium with egg shells to supplement. (Heck, I already paid for them, why throw them out. Great CZcams videos on how to do that, so simple.) I listened to this video many times and it's a great refresher every time.
That sounds wonderful! Is there a reason that you didn't want to take Fosamax as well? Are there some pretty bad side effects?
pretty and young Absolutely, I didn't want to break my leg, or have my jaw disintegrate. A friend of a friend had all her teeth fall out. I'd rather be proactive and let food, nutrition and exercise work WITH my body instead of pills with a "bad track record". And as an added note, removal of my ovaries also ruined my eyes. The drop in estrogen let cataracts develop (within 1 year and bad enough to need surgery 6 mo after). The surgery, by damaging muscle in left eye, left me with double vision. Do your own research on these last two points, you'll find it.
Thanks for the info. I was just prescribed Fosomax and took 4 doses (ix weekly). Now I stopped after reading much what you described. I lift weights, eat healthy etc, and will do more of all the suggestions here. Most MDs just prescribe pills.
What's a boidentical hormone please?
Love this in-depth video on osteopenia/ osteoporosis.
Thank you for encouraging all of us.
Doc, you need national exposure, the insight and information you give needs to be seen by everyone. You need your own TV show
Thank you Dr for the good INFO
Swamper60 I totally agree with you.
This is his own tv show.
More likely Dr Berry should have international status, especially here in the UK where we can no longer even see our Drs! Thank God we have CZcams as a medium!
NOOOOOO, please. I don't want him to become a joke, a cheap robot to entertain us. Please, he is a dignify individual that is not out there for the rich. Actually we are the mass, rich people are a small percentage.
You have helped me.
I've stopped smoking and drinking
Thank you
Wish you were my doctor. You make so much sense. Mine makes NO sense except to order drugs. Very disappointing. Thank you.
Dr. Berry, I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis being a 67 years old male . Thanks for giving info how to treat without meds. My doctor told me I may have to try prolia. I don’t want too. Keep sending out info. Thanks
just went off Prolia, it caused damage to the jaw bone! major surgery. If you do any bone strengthening meds, they tend to damage the jaw bone. Take extra D/Calcium to combat that possible problem.
@@carolapanowicz9076 I was diagnosed with Osteoporosis in 2018 at 57. I haven't taken anything bc I was a vegan and had undiagnosed celiac disease. I changed my diet, increased my calcium, animal products, D3 IM shots in my arm, K2, Raw Milk, butter, changed a lot of lifestyle habits, increased weights etc. Dec 1st I broke my ankle. high trama break in my ankle out with my 2 dogs and on a hill and high inflexible Boggs boots tht didn't give. My surgeon thinks it would have broke anyway but not sure if it was worse bc of Osteoporosis. Had another Dexa scan recenlty and my osteoporosis got better it went' from -2.9 to -2.6 . My DO suggested Prolia for life bc she takes it but I're ad all the side effects of these drugs. What are you taking now if anything and what is your score. thank you for any info to share. I'm 62 now.
I have Ostopenia , and doctors haven’t really taught me how to build bone 🦴 or even less reverse it , I want meaningful bone density 🙏🏼thanks again for another easy to understand health lesson ! Right before this , I just did a meditation for perfect 👌🏻 health , then first thing I see Is this video , Dr Berry , you are working for GOD, I took notes and didnt know any of this !!! Extremely grateful , one of your many subscribers !!! 👋🏻👌🏻😃☺️😊🙏🏼

Dr. Berry, you are a blessing. Thanks for your wonderful videos!
Will this help if you had kidney transplant?
Thank you Dr.Berry ! You're a "Godsend" !!!
Thank you very very much for your video.
I’m 62. Diagnosed with Osteopenia last year. Went and got Bio identical hormones last week. Saw my rheumatoidologist today and she was actually upset that I got the bio identical hormones. I have been on dexamethasone for over a year and have gained 22#. I told her I was gonna start Keto she was discouraging me from that also. I left there feeling hopeless, but after watching your video, I decided that I am going to take control of my health the best way I see fit. Thank you for your honesty.
Dexamethasone is A chemotherapy drug and causes bone loss.
@@DaynaRose74 dexamethasone is a glucocorticoid and yes it can cause bone loss and weight gain. I am on it for ITP to keep my platelets up.
Are you doing D3-K2-Zinc?
I would also recommend Isometric/Isotonic exercise as an alternative to weight training as weight training can also be detrimental to joints...
I would agree-Isometrics are awesome for building strength-without the potential damage of heavy weight training to connective tissues.
I agree. I have arthritis in back and hips and with possible labral tear in right hip. I've tried weight bearing exercises, bit it gives me horrible dull back and hip pain. I am 54 with a t score of -2.4 is lower back. I have tried to do everything right but my mom and aunt have it and I have a small frame.
Those don’t stress the bones to remodel tho. Like muscles need the stress of wgt bearing to stimulate remodeling, so do bones.
@@YeshuaKingMessiah Yes, but using the natural weight of your own body by doing weight bearing exercises such as pull ups, press ups, slowly with your own weight, like gymnasts do....
Check into T-Tapp (not anything of mine) amazing form of exercise!
Your excellent advice re diet (profound / exceptional ), exercise ( particularly weight-bearing), supplements… give me hope to naturally address (ideally reverse ) my osteoporosis . Thank you so much !
Thank you Dr. Berry, very great content that it’s still good in 2023.
It's true! I followed this same information 10 years ago when my first scan showed my number was -2.4 .4 years later it was -1.6. and now 10 years later, my number is -.6 which my doctor said is normal for my age. I am 67.
"A pile of bricks in the living room doesnt make your house stronger" FANTASTIC analogy. ☺
Great information as always. Thank you so very much.
That’s what the k2 is for. It guides minerals to the bones or where needed.
Thanks for this post so happy I found this Info. God 😊bless

Thank You Dr. Berry!
Your sincerity shines through in this video. Just subscribed! Thank you 🤗
Ever since going keto I feel amazing and lean more towards meat and animal products than I do plant sources. I always make a huge pot of bone broth to last me two weeks. Usually do beef or chicken or combination of both. I used to have high levels of inflammation, some acne throughout my body and all that has just gone down drastically. Acne is almost nonexistent now. 29 atm and I've never felt this good. Along with exercise. Eating sardines and salmon daily has really made it easy for me to up my omega 3 intake along with grass fed meat. Always full of energy and never seem to get exhausted even when I train for an hour in the gym sometimes more. This channel has been a huge help and helped in correcting mistakes I made when I started. Keep up the great content and you're definitely saving and changing lives for the better.

Hey Sham, can you share with us how to make bone broth in steps, please? Thanks.
I make a soup with it and add vegetables
I would really appreciate it if you can share how to make bone broth.
Excellent, informative video. Thanks, Dr Berry.
Thank you. This was an answer to my prayers!
My mom and grandmother both had osteoporosis. I know I would be a prime candidate, if I don't change some things, now.
I'm getting a second opinion because I'm extremely healthy never had menopausal issues, always eating decent and working out is my passion doctor said your not on any medication then schedule me for bone density and said I have osteoporosis and prescribe me some medications and I canceled the medication I don't take meds, I'm going to keep using alternative stuff
sounds exactly like me.
Ty Dr.Berry and God bless 🙌 🙏🏼
