Supplements: These natural substances help build bones naturally: strontium, boron, vit d3, magnesium, and calcium. Eating lots of alkalizing foods such as fruit and vegetables also helps.

Possibly Forteo: The drugs which prevent bone breakdown, reclast, (zoledronic acid) Prolia and Fosamax are generally safe. A tiny percentage of patients may develop a jaw problem or atypical fractures of the thigh bone. Forteo builds bone and is not associated with the above rare problems.
