Fosteum

What is your opinion of Fosteum, which contains genistein, Vitamin D-3, and zinc, for treating osteoporosis? The adverse effects appear to be much less harmful than other osteoporosis drugs like Fosamax, Boniva, Raloxifene, etc. My wife’s t-scores are around -3, and we are very concerned.
    We have not seen studies with Fosteum product regarding it's long term effect on osteoporosis.

Nutritional therapies (including fosteum).

Recent reports on nutritional remedies for osteoporosis have highlighted the importance of calcium in youth and continued importance in conjunction with vitamin D as the population ages. It is likely that a calcium intake of 1200 mg/d is ideal, and there are some concerns about excessive calcium intakes. However, vitamin D intake needs to be increased in most populations. The ability of soy products, particularly genistein aglycone, to provide skeletal benefit has been recently studied, including some data that support a new medical food marketed as Fosteum (Primus Pharmaceuticals, Scottsdale, AZ).
