Timing, Dosing, and Tips to Maximize Your Results
🧠 Why Supplements Are the Foundation
The BoneBuilder Protocol starts with clinically-backed nutrients that signal your bones to remineralize, strengthen, and resist fractures. These nutrients amplify the effects of activity, hormone balance, and medications like LDN.
But — they only work if you take them consistently and correctly.
🧰 Your Core Supplement Stack
| Supplement | Dose | Timing | Notes |
| Bone-Up (3 Per Day) | 1 capsule, 3x/day (or 3 at once) | With meals or snacks | Includes calcium, D3, trace minerals |
| Vitamin D3 | 5000 IU/day | With fat-containing food (AM or PM) | Titrate to target 25(OH)D of 40–60 ng/mL |
| Vitamin K2 (MK-4) | 15,000–45,000 mcg/day | With food, any time | Avoid if on warfarin; split dose if sensitive |
| Magnesium (Malate or Glycinate) | 300–600 mg/day | At bedtime | Helps sleep, relaxes muscles |
| Collagen Peptides | 10–15 g/day | Any time, ideally AM | Powder in smoothies or coffee/tea |
| Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) | 1.5–3 g/day | With fat-containing meal | Nordic Naturals or similar |
💡 Pro Tips for Daily Success
✅ Keep pills visible — in a 7-day organizer or next to toothbrush/coffee maker
✅ Use reminders or apps to stay on track (e.g., Medisafe, CareClinic)
✅ Try dividing doses if your stomach is sensitive (especially magnesium, D3)
✅ Pair with meals when possible for absorption and consistency
✅ For bone broth instead of collagen — aim for 2–3 cups/day, simmered long or use a quality packaged brand

🧪 What to Expect
📅 Month 1–2
- You may notice: better sleep (magnesium), improved digestion, more energy
- Your bone labs (e.g., CTX, vitamin D) start to shift behind the scenes
📅 Month 3–6
- CTX should trend down (less bone breakdown)
- Vitamin D and K2 reach target levels
- Musculoskeletal resilience improves
📅 Month 12+
- BMD changes become measurable
- Maintenance dosing may be adjusted
- You may reduce some supplements if lifestyle and labs allow
🚫 What to Avoid
- Taking too much magnesium (can cause loose stools)
- Taking D3 or K2 without food (fat-soluble = poor absorption without fat)
- Starting all supplements on the same day (space new ones by 2–3 days if needed, add a new one as tolerated)
- Taking calcium (Bone-Up) too close to thyroid meds or iron — separate by 3+ hours
