Hi all,
I had mentioned before that Little Miss A Z-score came -3.7 last year and the doctors were concerned that she may develop severe osteoporosis. She was told to do rope skipping everyday (300 times) on a hard floor. We did not change anything (same dose of calcium and vitamin D) and made sure she skip rope everyday.
Little Miss A Z-score improved dramatically to -2.7 in 10 months. Our doctor believes and recommends that every thal should skip rope to maintain healthy bones. In her experience, she has seen marked improvement in bone density.
Just sharing the thought.
