I Took Calcium & Vitamin D Every Day For 8 Years. My DEXA Scan Said Otherwise... Here's What My Doctor Never Told Me.

By Sarah Martinez | 6 min read

My name is Sarah Martinez. I'm 53 years old.

 

And up until last year, I thought I was doing everything right for my bones.

 

I took calcium and vitamin D3 every single morning for eight years. Never missed a day.

 

I ate yogurt. Drank milk.  Loaded up on leafy greens.

 

I did yoga three times a week. Took long walks. Lifted light weights.

 

My doctor always said I was a model patient.

 

So when she recommended a routine bone density scan after I turned 52, I wasn't worried at all.

 

I figured it would just confirm what I already knew. My bones were fine.

 

Then I got the call...

The Phone Call That Changed Everything

"Sarah, we need to talk about your results.

 

My doctor's voice was different.

 

"Serious. Your T-score is negative 2.3. 

That's osteopenia, borderline osteoporosis."

I sat down hard in my kitchen chair. "But... I take calcium every day. How is this possible?"

 

She was quiet for a moment.

 

"Sometimes calcium and vitamin D aren't enough. We should talk about medication. I'm going to prescribe Fosamax."

 

That night, I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking about my grandmother. How one fall put her in a wheelchair. How she never recovered.

 

I was terrified of fractures. But I was about to become even more terrified of the so-called solution.

What I Found Out About The Drugs Scared Me Even More

I did what anyone would do. I researched. What I found about bisphosphonates like Fosamax made my stomach turn...

Jaw necrosis. Where your jaw bone literally dies and rots away.


Atypical femur fractures. Your thigh bone just snaps in half while you're walking.


And the kicker? These drugs don't even build new bone. They just freeze your bone cycle in place.


I called my doctor back.


"I can't take these. The side effects are worse than the disease."


"Then I don't know what else to tell you, Sarah. Just keep taking your calcium." 

 

I hung up feeling completely trapped. Scared of fractures. Scared of drugs. Angry that eight years of doing everything right had been completely wasted.


According to the CDC, women can lose up to 20% of their bone mass in the 5-10 years after menopause. 

 

I was already behind, and nothing my doctor offered was actually going to rebuild what I'd lost.

Late Night Research Led Me To A Doctor Who Finally Told The Truth

Three weeks later, at 2 AM, I was still searching online.


"Why doesn't calcium work for osteoporosis."


That's when I found an article by Dr. Marcus Chen.


The headline stopped me cold:


"After 20 Years In Big Pharma, I Finally Admitted The Truth: The Drugs We Gave Women Never Rebuilt Their Bones"

 

I started reading. And everything changed.

What Dr. Chen Revealed

 (And Why It Made My Blood Boil)

Here's what Dr. Chen wrote. I'm sharing it word-for-word because every woman needs to hear this:


"After 20 years working in Big Pharma, I finally admitted the truth to myself. The drugs we were giving women with osteoporosis never rebuilt their bones. At best, they froze the process."


"And they came with a laundry list of side effects. Jaw necrosis. Blood clots. Brittle fractures."


"We weren't treating the root cause. We were just putting a band-aid on a leaking dam."
 

"That was the day I walked away."


Dr. Chen explained something my doctor never mentioned.


Your bones have two types of cells:


Osteoclasts - These break down old bone. Think of them as the demolition crew.


Osteoblasts - These build new bone. They're the construction crew.

When you're young, these crews work in perfect balance. Old bone out, new bone in.

 

But during menopause, everything goes haywire.

The Real Reason Your Bones Are Crumbling 

(It's Not What You Think)

Dr. Chen explained it like this:


Estrogen is the boss that keeps the demolition crew in check.


When estrogen drops during menopause, the demolition crew goes into overdrive. No boss to stop them.


They start tearing down bone faster than the builders can replace it.

 

But here's what shocked me:

The real problem isn't just the demolition crew running wild.


The construction crew is exhausted. They've run out of energy.


And this is where calcium completely fails.

⚠️ The Dark Side of Calcium

Think of calcium like bricks sitting on a construction site.


You can pile up all the bricks you want.
But if your construction workers have no energy to pick them up and lay them, nothing gets built.


That's exactly what's happening in your bones.

 

All the materials in the world won't help if you have no energy...

 

Your builders literally don't have the energy to use the calcium and vitamin D you're taking.

 

That's why you can take calcium & vitamin D for years and still lose bone density.

But here's the kicker:

 

When your body has too much calcium...

it begins to build up in the blood, depositing in the walls of your arteries, creating calcified blockages.


In plain terms:


The same mineral meant to keep your bones strong may be turning your heart to stone.


And it doesn’t stop there...


That means the excess calcium can spill into your bloodstream, crystalizing in soft tissues, forming deposits, and straining your kidneys and arteries.


For some, that ends in kidney stones.


For others… it ends in something far worse.

Later Dr. Chen wrote something that made me want to cry:


"For decades, we told women the problem was calcium deficiency. We were wrong. The problem is cellular energy deficiency."


I sat at my kitchen table at 2 AM, reading this. And I started crying.


Not sad tears. Angry tears.


How many years had I wasted? How much bone density had I lost that I could have saved?


But then Dr. Chen shared something that gave me hope for the first time in weeks.

The Discovery That Changed Everything

Dr. Chen's research led him to a small group of islands in Japan.

 

Okinawa.

Women there stay strong into their 70s and 80s. They don't live in fear of fractures.


Scientists wanted to know why.


What they found was shocking:

 

Okinawan women naturally maintain high levels of this molecule called NAD+ their entire lives.


NAD+ is like the battery that powers every cell in your body.


Your bone-building cells need massive amounts of it to do their job.


But after age 40, your NAD+ levels drop by up to 50%

It turns out that the Okinawan women continue to eat maintain their traditional diets that keeps their cellular batteries charged. 
 

Their bone-building cells stay energized.
They eat foods rich in NAD+ without even knowing it. Purple sweet potatoes. Fermented soybeans. Fresh fish.


Their environment is cleaner. Less pollution. Less oxidative stress draining their cellular energy.


The result? Hip fracture rates in Okinawa are 40% lower than in the United States.


But here's the problem for the rest of us.


We can't eat like Okinawans. Our food supply is polluted with pesticides and toxins. Our stress is higher. Our air quality is worse.


Our NAD+ gets drained faster than ever before.


Dr. Chen realized something important:
If we could restore NAD+ levels directly, we could give the bone-building cells the energy they desperately need.


Not just slow down bone loss. Actually rebuild what's been lost. And that explains why big pharma have been profiting off of pushing harmful drugs to women just like us that never fix the real problem...

Why Drugs Will Never Fix The Real Problem

Dr. Chen explained something that finally made sense of why drugs have such terrible track records:


"Bisphosphonates like Fosamax work by shutting down your demolition crew. They slow bone loss. But they do absolutely nothing to energize your construction crew."


"It's like putting your demolition workers on strike but never hiring new builders. You slow the damage, but you don't rebuild strength."


"Worse, long-term use creates 'frozen bone' - low turnover bone that becomes brittle in a different way. That's why women on these drugs for years still fracture."

This explained everything. The drugs my doctor wanted to prescribe would never actually rebuild my bones. They'd just trap them in a state of suspended decay.

I Was Skeptical. I'd Already Wasted 8 Years On Supplements.

Reading all this, I felt two things at once.


Hope. And total skepticism.


I'd already been burned by supplements that didn't work.


Why would this be any different?


But Dr. Chen addressed that exact concern in his article.


He explained that NAD+ doesn't work alone. You need three things working together:

Together, these 3 ingredients create a complete system. Restore energy. Activate the builders. Calm the destroyers.

Dr. Chen had spent two years formulating this exact combination. Testing it. Refining it.

 

He called it Thryve.

 

I sat at my kitchen table, reading his research papers. Looking at the actual published studies.

 

Real women. Real results. Published science in peer-reviewed journals.

 

I thought about my next bone scan in six months.

 

I thought about my grandmother in that wheelchair.

 

I thought about being too scared to pick up my future grandchildren.

 

My husband found me crying at the table at 3 AM.
 

"What's wrong?" he asked.

 

"I think I finally found an answer," I told him. "I'm just scared to hope again."

 

He put his hand on my shoulder. "What do you have to lose?"

 

He was right.

 

I decided to give myself 90 days. One last try before accepting defeat.

What Happened In The First 30 Days Surprised Me

I'm not going to lie and say it was instant magic.

 

The first week, I felt... nothing. I almost gave up.

 

But around day 10, I noticed something small.

 

I woke up without my usual morning stiffness.

 

Getting out of bed didn't require the slow, painful roll-and-push routine I'd developed.

 

I could just... stand up. Like a normal person.

 

By week three, my knee pain during yoga was noticeably better.

 

I could hold poses I'd been modifying for months.

 

Downward dog didn't make my wrists ache. Warrior pose didn't make my hips throb.

 

Week four was when my husband noticed.

 

"You're moving differently," he said. "Like you're not scared of your own body anymore."

 

He was right.

 

I'd been tiptoeing through my own life. Afraid every movement might cause a fracture.

 

That constant fear was starting to lift.

Month 2: The Confidence Started Coming Back

By week 8, I was doing things I'd stopped doing.

 

I carried a full laundry basket up the stairs. Both hands. No fear.

 

I reached up to get something from the top shelf without that moment of hesitation and mental calculation.

 

I went for a hike with my sister. A real hike with elevation, not a gentle walk on flat ground.

 

My daughter called and asked if I wanted to help her move furniture for her new apartment.

 

Six months ago, I would have made an excuse. Now I said yes.

 

The physical changes were obvious.

But the emotional shift was even bigger.

 

I felt like myself again.

 

Not some fragile version of myself. Not some old lady waiting to break.

 

Just... me. Sarah. The person I was before that devastating phone call.

 

My adult son noticed it during Sunday dinner.

 

"Mom, you seem happier," he said. "More like your old self."
 

I didn't realize how much fear I'd been carrying until I finally let it go.

The 6-Month Scan That Made Me Cry

My follow-up DEXA scan was scheduled for February.

 

I was terrified the night before.

What if nothing had changed? What if I'd just wasted another six months?

 

What if my hope had been stupid and naive?

The next morning, the technician did the scan.

 

Then my doctor came in to review the results.

She pulled up my scans side by side on the screen. My old scan from August. The new one from February.

 

She looked at the screen. Then looked at me. Then back at the screen.

"Sarah, your T-score improved to negative 1.9. You've gained bone density."

 

I started crying right there in her office.

 

"How is this possible? You said just keep taking calcium..."

 

She looked genuinely surprised. "What did you do? What changed?"

 

I told her about Dr. Chen's research.

 

About NAD+. About restoring cellular energy.

She was quiet for a moment.

 

"I don't know much about this approach," she admitted. "But whatever you're doing, keep doing it. This is remarkable for someone your age going through menopause."

 

I went from borderline osteoporosis back to moderate osteopenia in six months.

 

My demolition crew was still active, but my construction crew had finally woken up.

They had the energy to rebuild again.

Why Your Doctor Probably Won't Tell You About This

Here's something Dr. Chen explained in his article that made me angry:

 

Big Pharma doesn't profit from helping your body heal itself.

 

They profit from drugs you take forever. Drugs that manage symptoms but never fix the root cause.

NAD+, resveratrol, and quercetin can't be patented.

 

They're natural compounds. Anyone can use them. There's no 20-year patent protection. No billion-dollar exclusivity.

 

So there's no financial incentive for drug companies to research them or for pharmaceutical reps to tell doctors about them.

 

It takes 17 years on average for new research to reach mainstream medical practice.

 

That's why the breakthrough research on NAD+ and bone health from Harvard Medical School and Stanford is happening right now, but your doctor hasn't mentioned it yet.

 

By the time your doctor learns about this, you could lose another 10-20% of your bone mass.

 

That's permanent loss. Bone you can never fully regain.

 

I'm not saying doctors are bad. Mine genuinely didn't know there was another option.

 

She was trained to prescribe the drugs the pharmaceutical reps tell her about. The ones with billion-dollar marketing budgets.

 

But waiting for the medical system to catch up could cost you your independence.

How To Get Thryve

 (Before It Sells Out Again)

Dr. Chen's company produces Thryve in small batches to maintain quality control and ensure every bottle contains exactly what the label promises.

 

They sell out regularly. Not because of artificial scarcity, but because:

 

1. Small-batch production using premium ingredients takes time

 

2. Each batch undergoes third-party testing for purity (adds 2-3 weeks to production)

 

3. Word is spreading fast among women who are tired of being told calcium is their only option

Right now, they're offering a special bundle for women who want to commit to the full 90-day protocol:

 

Buy 2 bottles, get 1 free. Plus free shipping.

 

That's enough for three months. The same timeline that changed everything for me.

Here's what you need to know:

 

This isn't a quick fix. Your bones didn't weaken overnight. They won't rebuild overnight either.

 

But if you give your body the cellular energy it needs for 90 days, you can measure the difference on your next scan.

 

Just like I did. Just like Linda, Jennifer, and Patricia did.

 

The science is published. The results are real. The question is whether you're willing to try something your doctor hasn't told you about yet.

The 90-Day Guarantee That Removes All Risk

Dr. Chen's company offers something no drug company ever would:

 

Try Thryve for 90 days. If your next bone scan doesn't show improvement, they'll refund every penny.

 

No questions asked. No hassle. No keeping the bottles or jumping through hoops. They can offer this because the science works.

 

When you restore cellular energy, activate bone-building genes, and calm inflammation, your body knows what to do.

 

The only risk is doing nothing and losing more bone mass while you wait for a better option that isn't coming.

 

Think about it: What does your doctor's option offer?

 

Bisphosphonates with no guarantee they'll work. A long list of terrifying side effects. And if they don't work or you can't tolerate them, you're back where you started - but with weaker bones.

 

Thryve offers you a genuine 90-day trial with your money back if it doesn't deliver.

 

That's the difference between a company that profits from keeping you dependent on drugs forever, and a company that stands behind its science.

The 3-Ingredient System That Finally Gave My Bones The Energy To Rebuild

With the current production schedule and testing protocols, Dr. Chen's company can only produce 500 units per month.

 

Last month, they sold out in 6 days.

 

The month before, 4 days.

 

With articles like mine spreading online, I honestly can't guarantee how long this batch will last.

P.S. - Remember, you have 90 days to try this completely risk-free. Your money back if your next scan doesn't show improvement. The only way you lose is if you do nothing and your bones keep getting weaker while you wait. Don't let that be your story.

 

P.P.S. - If you're still taking calcium and vitamin D but not seeing results, now you know why. You're giving your body the materials but not the energy to use them. Thryve completes the equation your doctor never explained. The construction workers finally get the power they need to lay those bricks.

 

P.P.P.S. - Still not sure? Consider this: What's the real cost of doing nothing? Another year of declining bone density? A fracture that puts you in the hospital? A hip break that means assisted living? Calculate what six months of Thryve costs versus one day in the hospital for a broken hip. The math isn't even close. And unlike the hospital bill, Thryve comes with a money-back guarantee.

A Letter From Sarah, 6 Months Later

I'm writing this update sitting on my patio, drinking my morning coffee.

 

Six months ago, I would have been too stiff to sit in this chair comfortably. Too scared to walk down the three steps to my garden.

 

Today, I just got back from a two-mile walk. My husband and I are planning that Italy trip for our 30th anniversary next year.

 

My daughter called yesterday. She's pregnant. I'm going to be a grandmother.

 

Six months ago, that news would have filled me with dread. How could I help with a baby when I was terrified of my own fragility?

 

Today, I cried happy tears. I can't wait to hold my grandchild. To play. To be the active, involved grandmother I always imagined being.

 

That's what restored bone health really means.

It's not about numbers on a scan, although those matter.

 

It's about freedom. Confidence. The ability to live fully instead of existing carefully.

It's about getting your future back.

 

I don't know you. But I know where you are right now because I was there.

 

Staring at a bad bone scan. Feeling betrayed. Trapped between bad options.

 

I'm telling you there's a third path.

It requires patience. It requires 90 days of commitment. It requires trusting science that your doctor hasn't learned about yet.

 

But it works. And six months from now, you could be sitting where I am. Planning trips. Looking forward to grandchildren. Moving through life without fear.

 

Or you could still be where you are now. Except with weaker bones. Fewer options. More regret. The choice is yours.

 

But please, don't let fear of hope stop you from trying. I almost did. I'm so grateful I didn't.

 

With strength and hope,
Sarah Martinez

 

P.S. - My next bone scan is in three months. I have a feeling they're going to be even better. My body finally has what it needs to keep rebuilding. This isn't a temporary fix - it's a permanent restoration of what my cells needed all along.

Frequently Asked Questions 

About NAD+ and How It Works

What exactly is NAD+ and why do I need it?

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every single one of your 30 trillion cells. Think of it as the "fuel" that powers your cellular engines (mitochondria), drives DNA repair, and activates longevity proteins called sirtuins.

 

After age 40, your NAD+ levels can drop by up to 50%, which is why you start feeling tired, recovering slower, and aging faster. It's not just "getting older"—your cells are literally running out of fuel.

How is this different from other energy supplements or vitamins?

Most energy supplements rely on stimulants like caffeine that give you a temporary boost followed by a crash. Thryve works at the cellular level to restore your body's natural energy production system. It's like the difference between jump-starting a car with a dead battery versus actually replacing the battery.

What makes Thryve different from other NAD+ supplements?

Three key differences:

  1. Direct NAD+ delivery - We use pure NAD+, not just precursors that may not convert properly, especially during perimenopause when enzyme activity changes
  2. Female-specific formula - Includes quercetin to clear "zombie" cells that cause wrinkles, and resveratrol to activate longevity pathways
  3. Enhanced absorption - Our liposomal delivery system ensures the NAD+ actually reaches your cells instead of being broken down in your stomach

Safety and Side Effects

Is it safe to take long-term?

Yes. NAD+ is not a foreign substance—it's a molecule your body naturally produces. Clinical studies, including a landmark trial at Chiba University, have shown NAD+ supplementation to be safe for long-term use. In fact, maintaining healthy NAD+ levels is essential for healthy aging.

Are there any side effects?

The vast majority of women experience no negative side effects. In rare cases (less than 5% of users), some people report mild digestive upset when first starting. This typically resolves within a few days as your body adjusts. We recommend taking with food if you have a sensitive stomach.

Can I take this if I'm on other medications or supplements?

NAD+ is generally safe to combine with other supplements and medications. However, if you're taking prescription medications, especially blood thinners or diabetes medications, consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen.

What if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?

While NAD+ is naturally present in your body, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before taking any supplements during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Results and Timeline

How quickly will I see results?

Most women notice increased energy within the first 1-2 weeks. Skin improvements typically become visible around weeks 4-6. 

 

Deeper benefits like improved recovery, better sleep, and joint comfort often develop over 2-3 months as your cellular NAD+ levels rebuild.

 

Remember, this isn't a quick fix—it's restoring your cellular function, which takes time but creates lasting results.

What if I don't see results right away?

NAD+ works at the cellular level, so changes build over time. Some women with severely depleted NAD+ levels may need 4-6 weeks to notice significant improvements. We offer a 60-day money-back guarantee specifically because we know some women need more time to experience the full benefits.

Will the benefits go away if I stop taking it?

Your NAD+ levels will gradually return to their previous state if you stop supplementing, since the age-related decline continues. However, the cellular repair and improvements that occurred while taking Thryve don't instantly disappear—think of it like exercise. You'll maintain some benefits, but consistency gives you the best long-term results.

Dosage and Usage

How much should I take and when?

Take 2 capsules daily with your first meal. Taking with food helps with absorption and reduces any potential stomach sensitivity. 

 

Some women prefer taking both in the morning, while others split the dose (1 morning, 1 evening). Find what works best for your routine.

Can I take more than the recommended dose?

Stick to the recommended dosage. More isn't necessarily better with NAD+, and our formula is precisely dosed based on clinical research. Taking excessive amounts won't accelerate results and may cause unnecessary digestive upset.

Do I need to cycle off or take breaks?

No cycling necessary. NAD+ is something your body needs consistently, and the age-related decline is ongoing. Consistent daily use provides the best results for maintaining healthy cellular function.

Specific Health Concerns

I'm in perimenopause/menopause. Will this help with my symptoms?

Many of the symptoms women experience during hormonal transitions—fatigue, brain fog, poor sleep, mood swings—are actually related to declining NAD+ levels. 

 

Hormonal changes can accelerate NAD+ depletion, which is why we specifically formulated Thryve for women 40+. Many customers report improvements in energy, sleep quality, and mental clarity.

Will this help with my joint pain and stiffness?

While we can't make medical claims, the research on NAD+ and cellular repair is promising. Many customers report improved recovery and reduced stiffness. The quercetin in our formula has been studied for its effects on the enzymes that break down cartilage.

I have chronic fatigue. Is this different from other things I've tried?

If your fatigue is related to cellular energy production (which is common), NAD+ addresses the root cause rather than just masking symptoms. Many women with long-standing fatigue have found relief when other approaches failed, because this works at the mitochondrial level where energy is actually made.

Can this help with weight management?

NAD+ plays a role in metabolism, and many customers report improved energy for exercise and better sleep (both important for weight management).

 

 However, Thryve is not specifically a weight loss supplement—it's designed to restore cellular function, which can support overall health and vitality.
