I just wish the scientific community would show more interest in the potential benefits of strontium citrate. There is so much research about other supplements: calcium, magnesium, Vitamin K2, boron, etc. even if some of that is also inconclusive. There is an onslaught of discussion about which exercise is best, how many prunes to eat, which weighted vest to wear, dealing with oxalates in our diet, but for some reason, the mention of strontium stirs up controversy. For those of us who are not ready to go down the prescription medication route, it would be helpful to have a better idea of whether this might be a safe alternative to try first, or as maintenance post medication. I’ve read so many anecdotal success stories regarding strontium citrate, but the lack of solid scientific human-based research, and I’m not counting AlgaeCal’s claims as research, still makes me hesitate. I know there are no simple answers in this osteoporosis quest, but seems like we should be open to investigating all avenues.
