Both the prevention or reduction of bone/calcium loss and the laying down of new bone material are of importance when considering how to minimize the effects of osteoporosis.

The amino acid L-Lysine decreases calcium loss in the urine and therefore may be helpful in preventing osteoporosis.

Important bone-building nutrients plus the proven bone density-enhancing effects of iproflavone make up Thorne's Oscap-Plus. Research indicates that iproflavone has been shown to halt bone loss in peri- and post-menopausal women, and when given with calcium, to actually cause increased bone density.

We find both to very useful for osteoporosis!
