Thank you for your reply. I have read that there is a ten year time limit for taking the metal based strontium. Would this hold true gor strontium from algae? It is interesting to note vitamin label does not label strontium as a citrate but as a organic algae

That is interesting. The labeling is a little misleading. It makes me think that Strontium is a natural Calcium but it is not Calcium. I do want to research this out more. People that live on Okinawa are healthier longer. Even in their 90's they are active and healthy. They eat a lot of fish and I wonder about seaweed/algae that is filled with tiny marine animals and shells. Interesting.!

All strontium is metal-based, the algae or whatever absorbs it, but that doesn't change what it is. The same is true for other substances like zinc -it doesn't matter if you get it from food or a supplement, the element is the same.
