Thanks @awfultruth. I am taking 340mg of Strontium Citrate, half the AlgaeCal recommended amount. This is more than 50 times the normal amount found in food, so according to Dr Alan Gaby it may be detrimental. Maybe I should lower the amount that I am taking. I think I saw it somewhere in Great Bones that if you stop taking Strontium you get a rebound of weakened bones.

The question is does Strontium Citrate strengthen bones. If it does, does it matter whether it's Calcium or Strontium that helps? We don't know.

I also wonder about the other minerals that I am taking. It seems that there are recommendations to get your minerals from food. I know I would have trouble getting 1200 mg of Calcium just from food, since I can't tolerate milk. There is so much contradiction about whether we should drink milk at all. My endo said that he has a patient who drinks a lot of milk and has wonderful bones.

My endo wanted me to keep taking the Strontium and told me not to increase my Tymlos. Unfortunately, he is the only one here that I can see. Maybe I should try to set up a phone consultation with Dr McCormick. Does anyone have his contact information?
