cut out all dairy and eat raw green leaf and drink only distilled water. america is heavily overdosed on calcium. even so, dairy prevents calcium from getting into the bones. acid diets leach calcium from the bones. so, instead of replacing the calcium in the bones, it gets deposited just as you describe. dairy CAUSES osteoporosis and is acid forming in the body.

the distilled water will help leach the spurs. the green leafs will provide the calcium for the bones. get plenty of sun and do not wash afterwards. vitamin D is formed and on the skin and then soaks in if not washed off.

more may be needed, but hopefully this is enough to change the internal environment enough for the body to do the rest. do not eat carbs and proteins at the same time together.

the quickest fix is orange juice fasting for thirty days. most people wont do that. and even so, the diet MUST be changed. it is much easier after a fast, however.

Laurie Marzell, N.D. suggested that his bone spurs were not caused by excessive calcium but a calcium deficiency, and put him on a supplement program of 1500 mg of calcium and 750 mg of magnesium each day. Six to eight months later, new X-rays revealed that the bone spurs had dissolved along with the pain he used to feel in his shoulder.

Most authorities suggest that calcium-magnesium supplementation should be 2:1, two parts calcium to one part magnesium, just as Gus J. Prosch, Jr., M.D. found effective in treatment of arthritis, roughly the ratio found in dolomite 1.65:1 made from living organic fossil remains. White, Handler, Smith and Stetton, in The Principles of Biochemistry, recommend a 5:1 calcium-magnesium ratio that these authors found to be normal for human physiology. Now many physicians are recommending equal parts calcium and magnesium. One ratio might work better for some than others.

kelp supplements will help your daughter. kelp has all of the necessary minerals people need, in a plant based form. take LOTS of kelp with lemon juice. the lemon juice makes the kelp more bioavailalbe. lots of fresh greens as already noted will do a lot of good.

if i were here i would get a juicer and drink lots of fresh made juice every single day. a juice fast would do her wonders. its during a fast that the body begins to break down things like bone spurs and other unwanted items.

if you take any kind of calcium or magnesium supplement, be sure to take some lemon juice or apple cider vinegar (raw unpastuerized) with it. the natural acids in the juice and vinegar chelate the minerals and make them more bioavailable.

black strap molasses is another good source of minerals.
