OsteoporosisJOSEPH ANTELL
Osteoporosis
• Is characterized by low bone mass and structural deterioration of bone tissue• About 55% of those over 50 years of age are challenged with Osteopenia or Osteoporosis
Bone is a living tissue
• protects the most important organs in the body• stores minerals such as calcium and phosphorous which are vital for the functioning of all the
cells in your body. If the body needs to use these stored minerals (not enough is obtained from the diet), then the bone tissue releases them into circulation
• yellow bone marrow stores energy in the form of fat (triglyceride)• red bone marrow produces red and white blood cells• buffers acidity by releasing alkalinizing salts• remodels itself with turnover of cells
Bone Matrixis 1/3 water, 1/3 protein, 1/3 mineralsNote: Calcium is 85% of the total mineral content
Primary Factors in Bone Health:• Hydration• Adequate Protein Balance• Minerals• Absorption of Calcium• Utilization of Calcium• Vitamin K• Hormone Status• Weight bearing exercise
Difference between calcium bicarbonate and calcium phosphate
Calcium Bicarbonate – is the 1% that is in blood
Calcium Phosphate – makes up the 99% of calcium that is in bones and teeth
Calcifood Powder ball milled stone flour from raw uncooked veal rib cage and spinal column
a bone building food and a source of rare amino acids50% protein and 50% minerals
The protein in the bone in Calcifood is high in the amino acids that are commonly lost in cooking:
• Tryptophan: commonly lost when cooking in contact with sugar, providing tryptophan
stopped dental caries in children
• Methionine: a detoxifying factor known to be important in eclampsia, shock, liver cirrhosis,
liver enlargement and liver necrosis
• Lysine: helps with fatigue and irritability
• Lysine and Tryptophan combined: enhances corneal vascularization
Calcifood and Bone
Excerpt from Lectures of Dr. Royal Lee, Vol. II.

Well, the Calcifood is a veal bone dehydrated powder in the raw
state, so that is one way to get the elements, not only for the
calcium, that isn’t so important as is the proteins that
otherwise are damaged by cooking. Because, I believe that the
damage to teeth and bone is more from a protein deficiency than
the mineral deficiency. Because there’s special amino acids
required to build the protein components of teeth and bones.
Teeth and bone are one-third protein, one-third minerals… In
fact, teeth are more than that. Bone is a third mineral, a
third protein, and a third water. The protein is a critical
thing because just as soon as you feed test animals on cooked
foods then you start
to have arthritis and tooth decay. I don’t care how much
mineral you give them. The best way to get those things in the
raw state are the dehydrated veal bone flour. If the patient
gets veal bone powder, and we put it up in powder form or put
it up in tablet form, and for the adult for pyorrhea I think
the tablet [Biost] is the quickest acting. Now the tablet
contains the concentrated enzymes and amino acids of the bone
and none of the minerals. That’s known as Calcifood wafers
[Biost]. It really works. The dentists have great success with
this in tightening up loose teeth. Many times a dentist, you
know, have one tooth just to hang a bridge on and when that’s
gone well they’ve all got to come out.
So the patient is quite concerned about holding that last tooth
and with the veal bone product they can do it.
“Bone regeneration will commonly be evident by X-ray observation within a few weeks”

Primary Osteoporosis Protocol:
AM Shake:
• Calcifood Powder (1 T.) - 600 mg calcium phosphate (bone calcium), 22 raw amino acids, including bone marrow
• Calcium Lactate Powder (1 T.) - 800 mg calcium bicarbonate (blood calcium), an ionizable, pH balanced calcium and magnesium source
• SP Complete (2 T.) - 200 mg calcium, 10 g protein, Vitamin K source or Whey Pro Complete (2T.) – 40 mg calcium, 15 g protein
Further Products to Consider:(daily, listed in order of importance) :
• Symplex F (3 b.i.d) or Wild Yam Complex (1-2 b.i.d) – Promotes healthy endocrine balance
• Cataplex D (3 b.i.d.) - Supports calcium absorption from intestinal tract into blood
• Zypan (1-2 per meal) – add if gas and bloating is present after a meal
• Chlorophyll Perles (3 b.i.d.) - Vitamin K2(menaquinones) 125 mcg
Vitamin K2 (menaquinon-7, the most absorbable form) 18.5 mcg per perle
• Trace Minerals (2 b.i.d.) - Manganese source• Biost / Ostrophin PMG (3 b.i.d) - Nucleoprotein-mineral extract that supports bone cell health, phosphatase source
• Bone Complex MH (1 t.i.d.) – Supports and maintains healthy bone density, influences bone remodeling process
• Cataplex F Tablets (3 b.i.d.), Tuna Oil (2 b.i.d.) or Linum B6 (2 b.i.d.) – Fatty acids essential to calcium absorption into tissues
Hormones Regulate Bone Growth
Thyroid - T4, T3
Pancreas - Insulin
Sex Hormones (Estrogen, Progesterone and Testosterone)
Calcitonin -
Parathyroid hormone – regulates the concentrations of calcium and phosphorus in the body
