Trying to choose supplements carefully

@jasperina- I have used Algae Cal about a handful of years , along that time added the Strontium Boost, and last year discontinued that part of it. Continuing with Algae Cal but am looking to change that out as I find others to take its place potentially. And yesterday my thoughts were further verified.
Kim Millman, an absolute expert out of CA that has drilled down and for 15 years has a terrific track record . She has a program to figure out your root causes that includes much testing to tease out where the issues lie- gut biome, nutrients, blood sugar, hormone, etc. She stated again, which is now knowledge that’s out there everywhere , that states the Strontium is what makes your DEXA look better but is actually NOT. Strontium takes the place of the Calcium in your bones and is heavier so your DEXA scores are better , however your bone makeup is not!! Though these better values is what Algae Cal is hanging their hat on . She also did make the statement that she hasn’t seen Algae Cal itself make a difference in the bones. The ingredients in Algae Cal can be received through other supplements for sure. Feel free to look up Kim Millman.
Over the past year or two I’ve really upped my regime of sup use, but also went gluten free, also limiting dairy, sugar , and eating differently - more greens , veg, fruits -and bone markers have improved!!! And I do exercise for sure. Not sure what has made the difference , probably a combination of them all together. Good luck to you!!
