Those of you who have followed my recommendation to optimize your D3 levels with at least 5,000 IU’s a day of D3 and who are taking Protandim, which contains green tea extract, as well as 4 other herbs, are already benefiting from these results.
The mixture may reverse damage to bones caused by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced chronic inflammation, which could in turn reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
Chronic inflammation causes bone loss through oxidative stress and excessive production of pro-inflammatory molecules.
According to NutraIngredients:
"The researchers reported that both extracted green tea polyphenols and alfacalcidol supplementations reversed LPS-induced changes in bone structure, whilst a combination of both was shown to sustain bone micro-architecture and strength."

Profits from these recommendations are used to keep HealthBlogger free to those who read and appreciate the time and research that goes into these posts. It has been my experience over the last 30 years that if I offer reports and research without product recommendations, you will most likely pay more at the local health food store, and may not get the right product or the quality you would expect. I only recommend companies I respect and order from myself. I consider this a value added service that I offer along with the research.
