Guest guest Posted September 1, 2001 Report Share Posted September 1, 2001 I didn't say that it was the only supplement to STOP osteoporosis, I said reverse, add bone back!

As far as its being the only calcium supplement that has been shown to stop osteoporosis, I wonder if that originated from an advertisement? Just another " I heard.......
