Actually uncompensated respiratory acidosis would be helpful, since this would acidify things and make calcium ionizable and ready for excretion. Compensated respiratory acidosis would be bad though. Metabolic acidosis will dramatically increase osteoclast activity, so that would be good.
This makes me think that building up to running +100km per week may be another strategy. The heavy breathing from running would mobilize the rib cartilage and the acidosis from exercise would help pull calcium from the rib cage. If I supplement with collagen during this, it may also help rebuild that cartilage without calcium deposition.
Why do you say lowering copper? What's the reasoning behind this?
Having low RQ would make sense, since this would mean blood is high in fatty and keto acids.
I had access to an HR-pQCT when I worked in a bone research lab. I got a bone analysis that you can't get anywhere else, it looks not just superficially at the bone, but actually shows you a cross-section of the bone. I had one of the highest trabecular densities anyone had seen there.
Yes, my teeth have always been very good. Never required any dental work, no cavities, no gum disease, etc.
@mattyb what is ur daily dental hygiene routine? why do u think u have excellent dental health?
regarding the body puling out minerals from bone to keep the blood supplied... could this be that when we test blood sodium levels, the sodium always seems to be at an (false) optimal range/level? you might think you have enough sodium but in reality the body is compensating from the bones and in reality your are severely sodium (and/or other electrolyte) deficient..
