Thank you Ed for this video, actually all your videos concerning osteoporosis/osteopenia. I've watched them more than once, they are a great help to me. I'm doing all I can to "not" having to take Fosamax again. You are a blessing with your knowledge and continued help with your videos. Thank you~ Mitzi
