Hi, my name is Sharon and I am here to talk to you about my bone loss. I'm 69 years old, soon to be 70. And this type of thing, I guess, a lot of women at our age are fighting.
So in 2024, I had a DEXA scan. This was my second DEXA scan I've had in my life. And when my results came back in in 2024, I was devastated at the bone loss that I had. The fear set in that I can't do the things I used to do because of fear of breaking something.
My husband and I are very active. We ride bikes, we build our own home. I watch our granddaughter, and we're very busy with her. You know, a lot of activities. We do our own landscaping. There isn't anything that we wouldn't tackle. So I thought all that was going to change. So I was very fearful of breaking something.
Seeing my doctor, she suggested a pharmaceutical, which I took for about six weeks, and I had to stop it because I wasn't feeling well on it. From there, I decided I needed to find something that was going to help with my bone loss, and I started reading and trying to find that answer. And that's when I came across AlgaeCal.
Everything that I read about AlgaeCal just made so much sense to me. The minerals that makes up AlgaeCal, which is in our bones. And why we need those minerals. And I just decided to make that investment and get AlgaeCal. So I started it in May of 2024. I take the AlgaeCal and the Strontium Boost. Also the collagen with Fortibone. So I've been taking that on a consistent basis. I never missed a dose. I take it with me when I go when we're away. I make sure that I get two in the morning and two at dinner, and strontium at night and the collagen in my coffee in the morning.
I've never had a reaction to it. It doesn't affect my stomach or anything. So now here we are in 2026. And in March, I had my repeat DEXA scan. So I'm going to read you my numbers. I was totally blown away by the results.
In 2024, from my spine, my T score was -2.6. This year, my T score was -1.8. 11.2% increase. My left hip in 2024 T score was -1.4. 2026 T score -0.9 with a 6.9% increase. Left femoral neck 2024 T score -1.8. 2026 T score, -1.5 with a 3.8 increase.
I was floored that my bone loss had improved. I felt so much better about not worrying of breaking something! So the other things that I've done, um, along with the AlgaeCal is I've increased my protein to help build strong muscles and have consistency in my walking. I feel a lot stronger now that, um, I made those changes and that I can do that.
So I'm going to continue with the AlgaeCal because my work is not done. I have to keep going. I have to keep being consistent with everything that I'm doing, because I want those numbers to change again and get back to normal in two years. If it doesn't change, but the numbers stay the same- uh, I'll still be thrilled. I'll still be happy. At least it won't be showing the the bone loss like I had before. So I hope that I've encouraged somebody to stick with it, be consistent, and make some small little changes. Also to help, um, your health. It's worth the investment with the AlgaeCal. And just making some small changes in your life.
