Osteoporosis treatment or strontium citrate?
Is reclast a safe treatment for osteoporosis I have not done anything so far except strontium citrate?
***Director's Note:***
There’s not enough research to know if strontium fights osteoporosis. Also, the FDA doesn’t regulate supplements in the same way as prescription drugs, so it's not possible to know if if they are safe or work well or even how much of the main ingredient they contain.
If you want to take a strontium supplement, it is recommended to ask your doctor first.

I've been taking for a month. So far so good. I have spinal score of -3.5. Tried AlgaeCal for 6 months and my score went from -3.2 to -3.5 along with all other scores lowering. I was so upset. I'm an avid exerciser, 62 and of normal weight and eat almost a mediterranean diet. No luck. So I stopped the AlgaeCal. I had my husband inject me for a week and then I did myself. It's not hard but it is a mindset. Good luck!
I'm with you, do I bought a Marodyne unit for body vibration. I also had a REMS Scan done to look at bone quality. I track my calcium and protein intake each day. I take MK4 ,as per Japanese study of postmenuposal women and D along with Fortibone. You can look at all of these on PubMed. Weight training and walking, along with heel drops are mandatory each day. Hope this helps.
