Yeah. I sked my doctor for a one dexa scans and she asked me why do you want to do that... I was in my mid 60, and I couldn't believe she would even say that. I have had my primary doctor not even talk toe about vitamin D or calcium. I feel like they do the minimal and say they help you stay healthy. So disappointed

Dr Doug, I would really like to see a video explaining in simple language how you've gone from MCHC to AlgaeCal to Calcium citrate as forms of calcuim. My Dr told me to take calcuim citrate and I did for a bit, but I followed your advice as he also wanted me on Evenity. Every time you changed, I changed, but I'm questioning several things now. <br><br>I'm frustrated, as I know others are here. Can you please also address what your relationship is now with AlgaeCal? I thought you were on their board??<br><br>It's frustrating how expensive these suggestions are. How does someone on a fixed income improve their Bone Health? Many of us would benefit from this type of knowledge. <br><br>Also, where does collagen come in now? Again, I thought you recommend AlgaeCal's collagen. That was a big expense for me, but I got on it 4 months ago.<br><br>I have issues with your recommendations also as I don't see that any of these products are NSF Certified or Third Party Tested. Maybe I overlooked the testing. But other than the Unflavored Whey product, all of the company's whey is filled with Natural Flavors and that's A Big NO!! There's no way to know what you're putting in your body.<br><br>Also, I'm concerned that nobody from your team seems to respond to questions here on YouTube anymore.... So maybe they're not even getting read. 😢 Have to have money to belong to your collective. 😢<br><br>Finally, I would really like your input on Ionic Calcium therapy from the Advanced Calcium Research Institute and Dr Server Bozdogan. Have you looked at this? <br><br>Thank you for all you do for Us!! Not trying to complain, just raising concerns! I am truly grateful. ❤

I changed from Mk7 to MK4 a few months ago and I was delighted and surprised to have a very quick body reaction. I have been experiencing bone pain, that goes up at night to such a level that it would keep me awake. Within a few weeks of being on 45 mg of MK 4, the pain level of my bones dropped dramatically. None of my doctors knew what to do about the bone pain except prescribe pain killers, which I rejected.

I hear a lot of frustration because he’s switching products. Understand that he keeps track of all the research for us and as new research comes out and new products come out then he’s staying on top of it and recommending the latest and greatest. <br><br>It was the same for Covid. People got upset because the information changed, but the information changed because they kept doing more research.<br><br>It’s the same with cancer treatments. It’s as they do research and try new products then they update their recommendations.<br><br>Don’t shoot the messenger.

I like listening to Rhonda Patrick because she recommends supplements that you can often get anywhere, and she doesn't get a kickback. She just tells you which ones use third-party testing to be sure that what you buy actually contains the substance it says it has. Every once in a while she'll reccomend a specific brand, but only because of quality, not because she has a financial incentive.

Love it that you evolve your approach and explain why there are changes, together with linked research.

Great info. I also appreciate the explanation at the end of the kick backs and why. I don’t think people realize how much it takes you all to get the content to us. You’re the ones doing the research so we don’t have to. If you trust the product, then I feel better about it. And, we get a discount too. So it’s a win/win.

I used to take Osteo K and it was really hard on my stomach. I switched to OsteOrganiCal. I'm not switching again. I do use the Algeacal collagen. I'm disappointed in Dr Doug this time. Eat your broccoli and I make broccoli sprouts.

Another comment regarding proteins. In a previous video presentation you supported the new US health guidelines where the target protein level proposed was 1.2gm to 1.6gm/kg for older women. 2.2gm/kg is a step change up.
