A Unique and Natural Approach to Avoid This Potentially Deadly Disease
Osteoporosis is sometimes called the “silent thief” because bone loss occurs without symptoms. The danger of osteoporosis is an increased risk of bone fractures, which can be painful and debilitating enough to lead to premature death. Seventy percent of hip fractures are osteoporosis related and hip fractures result in death in up to 20 percent of cases, and disability in 50 percent of those who survive. (1)
“There's no telling how many women who die of heart disease or other disorders that began their illnesses with osteoporosis,” says Kent MacLeod, of NutriChem. “Quality of life is low, they never exercise; they die of heart attacks; they have no energy to fix food so they become poorly nourished, and they slowly, progressively die."(2) Kent Macleod is the founder and owner of NutriChem Compounding Pharmacy and Clinic. He is a biochemist and licensed clinical pharmacist who has over 25 years experience in studying and treating a variety of health related issues such as osteoporosis and women’s health issues.
The traditional approach in the medical system today is to treat the disease and not
the underlying causes of that particular disease, whether it be
chronic fatigue, diabetes or osteoporosis. This approach often leads to
prescribing of drugs, which can sometimes just lead to other health
problems and often does not resolve the underlying cause of the disease.
NutriChem understands that bone essential nutrients are
unique for each individual and your chances of developing or preventing
osteoporosis depends on many different underlying causes or factors.
These factors are important in assessing your risk for osteoporosis, but many people who develop osteoporosis have few of the factors. (3) Also, because osteoporosis can creep up on you unexpectedly without any signs or symptoms, it is critical that you have a plan of action
to avoid this potentially deadly disease and to keep your bones strong,
so you can live an enjoyable life full of movement and independence.
So how do you know if you have any underlying causes that might lead to osteoporosis?….. Read further to learn about how Nutri-Chem can help you prevent osteoporosis”
Imagine being able to take a close look into what is
going on in your body and finding out what might be contributing to
your bone loss or what if you just wanted to find out if your taking the right steps to prevent bone loss in the future.
Well now you can! NutriChem has developed a unique test that
can help you determine individual factors or imbalances that affect
your health, such as nutritional deficiencies, metabolic blockages and
hormone levels. This unique test gives us information that regular
laboratory testing will not, and gives us the ability to develop a plan to
correct these factors and imbalances.

So why should you get these factors checked and how do they help you prevent osteoporosis?
Ask yourself these questions:
*How much Vitamin D do you get a day?*
*Are you getting enough calcium in your diet?
*Are you eating a balanced diet, but not absorbing your nutrients?
It is difficult to answer these questions without taking a look into
our body chemistry. Using cutting edge laboratory testing we can
examine your Body Chemistry to help you discover if you are getting essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, vitamin D and protein which
are all important to support bone health. These nutrients are needed to
continually build and maintain your bones. If you are deficient in any
one of these nutrients it could compromise your ability to build and
maintain bone, leading to pain and loss of mobility.
The BCB test also looks at your hormone levels. Changes in hormone levels
may also contribute to osteoporosis. As we age our bodies produce
less hormones. Declining estrogen and progesterone levels
cause bone density to decrease and the risk of fracture to increase.
The goal of any form of hormone replacement therapy should be to
provide an adequate supply of the deficient hormone in a form that is
as close as possible to that which the body originally produced.
