@sphclips: Bone drugs don't just build bone. They might help you LIVE LONGER. But nobody's talking about it. In this conversation with @the.living.room.pod, Stanford geriatrician Dr. Deborah Kado reveals the hidden truth about bisphosphonates. Here's what she shared 👇 💊 Bisphosphonates (like Alendronate/Fosamax) have been around since 1995. They slow bone resorption. Allow more formation. 📊 The hidden benefit: In clinical trials, the IV form showed a MORTALITY BENEFIT. People died LESS. 🧪 Anti-aging research? Scientists are now looking at how these drugs work in the cholesterol pathway. There's more going on than we thought. ⚠️ The fear: Diane Sawyer's 2008 report scared everyone. Atypical femur fractures. Rare. But the media amplified it. 🩺 Dr. Kado's take: "In the correct setting, these medications are fantastic. What people don't hear about bisphosphonates is they died less." It's not just about bone density. It might be about living longer. But start with diet and exercise first. Always.
