My advice is to look to your genetic history and any current abnormal lab numbers you may have, and take supplements to assist in either not getting the problem or to aid in minimizing the problem.
Thanks for your detailed response, Darcy. It's iinteresting to see what everyone is taking. I don't know if my mom was osteoporosis or not - she does have rheumatoid (sp?) arthritis though. She's 70 and very active, runs 3 times a week, skis 2 times a week, square dances etc.

Anyway, I DON'T heal very fast, and get scars so easily. Maybe supplements will help.
