A study of about 9,700 post-menopausal women assessed their coffee and tea consumption, and bone mineral density (BMD), on four occasions over ten years. Tea consumption was positively associated with greater BMD. No association was seen for coffee, though there is an indication that more than 5 cups of coffee per day may be associated with lower BMD.

"'Living Medication' May Have Restored Bone Strength in 10 Patients With Advanced Osteoporosis
(. . .)
While there's no cure for the condition, scientists say they may have found a kind of 'living medication' for the disease.
In a first-in-human phase 1 trial reported in Cell, researchers gave patients with advanced osteoporosis a modified version of their own mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), and it showed significant bone-strengthening effects.
While the trial's primary aim was to investigate the safety of this experimental treatment, the researchers say their findings demonstrate much more.
(. . .)
In a small trial involving 10 women with advanced osteoporosis aged between 51–72, the researchers extracted bone marrow from each participant's hip.
Their MSCs were then isolated and cultured, before being modified with a glycocalyx tweak, designed to improve the MSCs' ability to return to the bone marrow after being reintroduced to the bloodstream.
The edited MSCs were then delivered back to the participants via an intravenous infusion, and the participants were then monitored for approximately six years of follow-up in total.
The results showed, in terms of the primary safety measures, that the experimental treatment was well tolerated by the participants, with no treatment-related adverse events occurring.
Even more promising was that the participants exhibited a dramatic drop in bone fractures stemming from their osteoporosis."

IMSS recomienda ejercicios y valoración para prevenir caídas en adultos mayores
El IMSS recomienda valorar riesgos, fortalecer músculos y mejorar el equilibrio para prevenir caídas en adultos mayores, además de revisar medicamentos, visión, audición y condiciones del hogar.
Por Gabriela Díaz | Reportera
El Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS) recomienda realizar una valoración integral de los adultos mayores para identificar riesgos de caídas y establecer ejercicios dirigidos a recuperar fuerza, equilibrio y función muscular.
La estrategia también contempla atender problemas visuales y auditivos, revisar los medicamentos que puedan favorecer adormecimiento o alteraciones de la movilidad y determinar si el paciente requiere bastón, andadera u órtesis.
La doctora Milagros Victoria Rodríguez Meza, especialista en rehabilitación adscrita al área de hospitalización de la Unidad de Medicina Física y Rehabilitación Centro, en la ciudad de México, explicó que una valoración inicial permite identificar posibles contingencias y establecer medidas preventivas.
La mayoría de las caídas ocurre en casa
De acuerdo con la especialista, al menos 60 por ciento de las personas adultas mayores de entre 60 y 65 años sufre una caída al año, situación que puede provocar fracturas de cadera, traumatismos craneoencefálicos, fracturas vertebrales, de radio, húmero y pelvis, además de luxaciones, laceraciones y lesiones de ligamentos.
La mecánica de estos accidentes suele relacionarse con caídas de bajo impacto y factores propios del envejecimiento, entre ellos la osteoporosis y la sarcopenia, condición asociada con la pérdida de masa y fuerza muscular.
La disminución de los reflejos y del equilibrio también incrementa el riesgo de sufrir una caída y de presentar lesiones posteriores.
El IMSS señala que 80 por ciento de estos accidentes ocurre dentro del hogar, principalmente en baños, dormitorios, pasillos y escaleras. La vía pública también representa un riesgo por terrenos irregulares y desplazamientos en transporte público.
Rehabilitación después de una lesión
La prevención debe comenzar con la identificación individual de los factores que pueden provocar una caída. La revisión de medicamentos, la atención de problemas visuales y la adaptación del entorno forman parte de las medidas recomendadas para reducir riesgos.
La Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) también recomienda programas de ejercicio adaptados que trabajen la marcha, el equilibrio y la fuerza funcional en personas mayores, además de modificaciones en el hogar para reducir los peligros ambientales.
En personas mayores con movilidad reducida, la actividad física orientada a mejorar el equilibrio y prevenir caídas debe realizarse al menos tres días por semana, de acuerdo con las recomendaciones de la OMS.
Cuando ocurre una lesión, los derechohabientes del IMSS reciben una valoración inicial en el servicio de urgencias y, según el tipo de afectación, son canalizados con el especialista correspondiente o para una intervención quirúrgica cuando es necesaria.
Posteriormente se establece un programa de rehabilitación que contempla movilización temprana mediante terapia física y ocupacional, con el propósito de recuperar funciones, reducir el riesgo de nuevas caídas y capacitar tanto al paciente como a su cuidador primario. –sn–

A Symbolic Gesture Bridging Buddhism, Martial Arts, and Philosophy
Among the many ritual gestures in martial arts and Buddhist practice, few are as rich in symbolism as the one-handed bow and the Shaolin salute. These simple movements embody centuries of cultural synthesis, spanning Buddhist devotion, Confucian ethics, and Taoist philosophy. Though often performed without conscious reflection, these gestures are living links to profound stories of sacrifice, humility, and moral discipline.
It is also important to distinguish between “bowing toward” someone and “bowing down to” them. In Buddhist and martial traditions, a bow is not a sign of subjugation or inferiority, but rather a gesture of mutual respect, recognition, and presence. To bow toward someone is to acknowledge their humanity, their role as teacher or peer, or their shared path. In contrast, bowing down to someone implies surrender, hierarchy, or submission, a dynamic not typically encouraged in authentic Chan or martial teachings, which emphasize non-attachment, humility, and equality of spirit (Suzuki, 1956; Shahar, 2008). The gesture is not about worship, but about mindful reverence for the moment and the relationship.
The Story of Huike and the One-Handed Bow
The origins of the one-handed bow can be traced to a pivotal moment in Chan (Zen)Buddhist history. In the 5th or 6th century CE, the Indian monk Bodhidharma (Damo) traveled to China, bringing the profound teachings of Dhyana (meditation) Buddhism. According to legend, Bodhidharma secluded himself in a cave near the Shaolin Temple, meditating in silence for nine years (Suzuki, 1959).
During this time, a Chinese monk named Huike sought to become his disciple. Initially rejected, Huike demonstrated his unwavering determination by standing outside Bodhidharma’s cave through a snowstorm. To further prove his sincerity, Huike cut off his own hand and presented it to Bodhidharma. Moved by this act of sacrifice, Bodhidharma finally accepted him as a student (Cleary, 1999).
The one-handed bow evolved partly from this story. In Chan circles, bowing with one hand came to symbolize total devotion, humility, and the willingness to transcend ego and attachment. The gesture visually echoes Huike’s sacrifice, representing a commitment to the Dharma that goes beyond the physical form.
Practical Monastic Roots
Beyond its symbolic meaning, the one-handed bow also has practical origins. Buddhist monks traditionally carried alms bowls or staffs, often leaving one hand occupied. The gesture of bowing with the free hand thus became a mindful adaptation, embodying presence and respect even in simple actions (Strong, 2001).
In Shaolin monastic life, where martial training intertwined with Buddhist practice, this gesture naturally merged with martial etiquette. Over time, it evolved into the more formalized Shaolin salute, now widely recognized across martial arts traditions.
The Shaolin Salute (Fist Wrapped in Palm)
The Shaolin salute, performed with the left open palm wrapping over the right closed fist encapsulates a deep philosophical message:
- The left palm symbolizes wisdom, virtue, and restraint.
- The right fist represents martial strength and discipline.
- Together, they convey the ideal that strength must serve wisdom, and that martial power should always be governed by moral integrity (Henning, 1999).
The gesture is performed at the start and end of training, as a sign of respect toward teachers, fellow practitioners, and the lineage itself.
Northern vs. Southern Shaolin Variations
Northern Shaolin
- Gesture held closer to the chest, with a more upright posture.
- Strong emphasis on Chan Buddhist origins, honoring the story of Huike and Bodhidharma.
- Used as a reminder that martial arts is a spiritual path, not merely a physical practice.
Southern Shaolin
- Gesture held lower, sometimes with a deeper bow.
- Greater incorporation of Confucian and Taoist elements:
- The left palm represents civil virtue (wen).
- The right fist represents martial courage (wu).
- Symbolizes the ideal of the “complete person” where one who balances civil ethics with martial prowess.
Across both traditions, the salute serves as a bridge between physical mastery and spiritual cultivation, reminding practitioners to walk the martial path with awareness, humility, and virtue.
Philosophical Layers of the Salute
InfluenceLeft PalmRight FistCombined GestureBuddhism (Chan)Wisdom, compassionStrength, disciplineStrength governed by wisdomConfucianismRitual propriety (礼, li)Martial courageHarmony of civil and martial virtuesTaoismYin (open hand)Yang (closed fist)Balance of opposites, alignment with DaoThese layers reflect the syncretic nature of Chinese culture, where Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism enriched one another and deeply influenced the martial arts (Shahar, 2008).
The Gesture Today
In modern martial arts, the Shaolin salute is used worldwide. Yet, many practitioners are unaware of its spiritual and historical dimensions. The story of Huike’s sacrifice, the practicality of the one-handed bow, and the layered meaning of the salute all remind us that external movements can carry profound internal significance.
Every time a martial artist performs this gesture, they are participating in a lineage that spans centuries of wisdom, discipline, and moral cultivation. In a world often dominated by superficial strength, the Shaolin salute offers a timeless reminder:
True power lies in restraint, and the greatest warrior is one whose actions serve a higher wisdom.Conclusion
The evolution of the one-handed bow and Shaolin salute exemplifies the essence of holistic practice, integrating the body, mind, and spirit. These gestures are not mere formalities; they are expressions of a worldview where humility tempers strength, and discipline serves compassion.
As we move through modern life, whether in the dojo, temple, or daily interactions, this simple bow invites us to embody presence, respect, and the pursuit of wisdom in every action.

CW: Healthcare: osteoporosis treatment, MCAS
At dose 4, after hearing that receiving two injections into one arm left me with nearly the entire back of my upper arm swollen and red for nearly two weeks, decided to do one injection into each arm. Both arms had a reaction, but it wasn’t as severe.
Last month was treatment 5 of 12. I still had a strong reaction, but not for as long. I received on a Friday, rested through the weekend, and was able to teach my chair yoga class Monday without feeling like I was courting post-exertional malaise!
I had treatment 6 of 12 of #Romosozumab yesterday. I still started feeling like I’m fighting off a virus within 90 minutes, but this morning I barely can see the injection site on the right arm and the left is just a little red, minor swelling and tenderness!
This is especially worth celebrating because I changed my pre-dose routine. I hoped changing the protocol a little wouldn’t result in a migraine. If it worked it opens up my being able to drive myself for the next 6 months!
I took half of the Benadryl 2 hours before and the other half another right after treatment, 3 hours after the first dose. I still took 500mg of acetaminophen 2 hours before and every 4 hours after. Still had the nurse spray Benadryl on the injection sites and they’re still administering one to each arm.
One dose (25mg) of Benadryl isn’t enough to knock me out. I’m pretty used to it and I know I’m ok to drive. The transit time between the infusion center and home is short enough that the second dose wouldn’t take effect until I was home. It’s also a very familiar route.
When I received dose 1/12 my nurse told me that some patients see their reaction start to taper off around dose 6 or 7, so I’ve been hoping. I don’t want to get too optimistic, but I might be past having a reaction that makes me feel lousy for a week+ every month. Having a meh weekend is acceptable.

After the second dose of #Romosozumab resulted in a brutal, lengthy migraine I reached out to my endocrinologist and primary care physician. Both of believed me and said it needed to be prevented! My endocrinologist urged me to not stop treatment and suggested that I try adding migraine medication.
My PCP suggested that I might be having a histamine/mast cell reaction, particularly after she saw photos of how much redness and swelling I have at the injection sites. She suggested a protocol of increased hydration and pre-dosing with acetaminophen and Benadryl (double dose) two hours before treatment and to spray the injection sites down with Benadryl!
My endocrinologist was happy to receive this insight (this itself is worth celebrating) and felt like it was better to try this protocol first, before adding a migraine medication, and whatever side effects it causes, to my life. Benadryl and acetaminophen are drugs I already take and are less of a load on the body.
I anxiously prepared for dose 3 of 12. My nurse that day saw all the notes about my reaction to the drug and confirmed I’d taken the Benadryl and acetaminophen, “Wait, you’ve had 50mg of Benadryl?! Please tell me someone drove you!”
The downside: taking 50mg of Benadryl during the daytime leaves me feeling like the world goes fuzzy at the edges. It’s definitely a dose where I cannot operate a heavy machinery, like a car.
The upside: I have NOT had a migraine for the past 4 doses!

Neveen's husband saw the doctor. He now has a new diagnosis, osteoporosis, new treatment needs, and new debt. They have received $22 in the last week. Prices there are as high as they are here in the US. A family of 6 cannot be fed on $22, let alone purchasing more supplements to treat the osteoporosis. I provide some support, but cannot do it all by myself. Please help. Their links are in my linktree.
