Bone density - connections

Bone density ->

• Applies To: Postmenopausal women
• Increases: Cancers (State: increased; Risk: greater)
• Increases: Breast cancer (State: increased; Risk: greater; Emphasis: particularly)
• Reflects: Bone mineral content (Scope: all other minerals present in bone)

-> Bone density

• Bone scan - Assesses (Scope: overall)
• Potassium citrate - Improves (Comparison: more_favorable_than_potassium_chloride)
• Bisphosphonates - Increases (Certainty: confirmed)
• Vibrating platform - Increases (Certainty: promised; Schedule: three_15_minute_workouts_weekly)
• Disabled children - Increases (Condition: stood_on_vibrating_device; Scope: all; Study: pilot)
• Vibration treatment - Increases (Intensity: mild)
• IL-6 - Increases (Level: decreased)
• Sex hormones - Increases (Level: higher)
• Vibrating platform - Increases (Population: sheep; Magnitude: up_to_30_percent; Duration: one_year; Frequency: few_minutes_daily; Evidence: reported_study)
• Estrogen - Increases (Therapy: alone)
• Running, Stair climbing, Weight lifting - Maintains (Benefit: beneficial)
• Vitamin K2 - Maintains (Comparison: better than vitamin D and synthetic estrogen)
• Vitamin K2 - Maintains (Comparison: more_than_vitamin_d_and_synthetic_estrogen)
• Walking - Maintains (Degree: partial; Benefit: beneficial)
• Isoflavones - Promotes (Modality: can; Population: postmenopausal women)
• Low stomach acid - Reduces (Certainty: potential; Unless: sufficient acidifying co-factors are present)
• Vitamin A - Reduces (Form: preformed)
• Sodium - Reduces (Level: high; Modality: potential; Mechanism: calcium_magnesium_ratio)
• Beta carotene, Mixed carotenoids - Reduces (Polarity: not)
• Protein - Safe For (Level: high; Condition: normal_phosphorus)

Calcium levels - connections

Calcium levels ->

• Reduces: Calcium bioavailability (Level: higher; Scope: some cases)
• Resolves: Grinding noise (State: normalized; Condition: no joint injury; Condition 2: no major joint degeneration; Certainty: will)

-> Calcium levels

• Blood-thinning drugs - Affects
• Cellular calcium - Confirms (Timing: before_and_after; State: normalized; Modal: can)
• Pregnant females - Has (Scope: many; State: adequate; Condition: without_extra_supplementation)
• Pregnant females - Has (Scope: many; State: high; Condition: without_extra_supplementation)
• Magnesium - Increases (Condition potassium: higher; Condition zinc: low; Certainty: likely; Outcome: higher)
• Muscle spasms and cramps - Indicates (Condition: worsens with calcium; Level: high; Certainty: suspect)
• Alcohol, Bromelain, Ginkgo biloba, Ginseng, Omega / fish oils, Oxalic acid sources, Pomegranate juice, Saw Palmetto, Vitamin E - Lowers
• Blood-thinning remedies, Grains - Lowers (Intake: higher)
• Berry juices, Fiber supplements - Lowers (Quantity: some)
• AAACa / AdvaCAL Calcium - Normalizes (Polarity: negative; Amount: 2 g; Frequency: daily; Status: maximum suggested; Condition: major calcium absorption problem)
• coral calcium - Normalizes (Polarity: negative; Predictability: unpredictable)
• Magnesium - Reduces (Dose: extra; Frequency: usually; Condition zinc: high; Condition potassium: low)
• Vitamin B6 - Reduces (Dose: higher; Frequency: regular; Condition: low-sodium types; Timing: eventually)
• Magnesium - Reduces (Intake: low; Outcome: low; Certainty: can; Attribution: other sources)
• Younger body - Tolerates (Degree: much_more; State: high; Frequency: generally)

Bone scan - connections

Bone scan ->

• Assesses: Calcium status (Indirectness: does not measure calcium specifically)
• Assesses: Bone density (Scope: overall)
