Can gentle, over-the-counter supplements like colostrum, vitamin K2, collagen, and bone marrow support growing bones and joints through every stage of life? Bone & Joint Health Can Colostrum, K2, and Collagen Help Kids with Growth Plate or Joint Issues? If your child struggles with knee or hip pain, has joint dysplasia, or you’re worried about growth plate health, it’s natural to ask whether over-the-counter supplements like colostrum , vitamin K2 , collagen , and even bone marrow can help.

Raw Milk & Bone Healing: What the Science Actually Shows Bone Healing Longevity Health & Nutrition Supplements Lactoferrin Colostrum Raw-milk advocates often claim there’s a “special protein” in raw dairy that can trigger bone growth and speed fracture healing.

Quick Summary Bone healing depends on total nutrition, protein, minerals, vitamins (D, K2, C), hormones, and mechanical loading — not a single “magic” food. Pasteurization barely changes milk’s protein, calcium, or phosphorus content and doesn’t erase its core bone-supporting nutrients. Lactoferrin is a powerful iron-binding protein that supports bone formation, immunity, and g...

17 Signs You Have a Magnesium Deficiency (Most People Do) Minerals • Stress • Sleep & Recovery If you feel tired, wired, tight, anxious, or you wake up at 2–3 AM for no obvious reason, there’s a good chance magnesium is part of the story . This quiet mineral is involved in more than 300 enzyme reactions, yet most people never think about it— and modern lifestyles quietly drain it every day. In my article The Science of Reverse Aging: Rebuild a Youthful Metabolism Naturally , I covered how minerals, hormones, and mitochondria work together. Magnesium sits at the center of that triangle: energy production, nervous system calm, blood sugar, sleep, and muscle function all depend on it.
