AlgaeCal did not agree w/me--gave me loose stools. I have no idea what ingredient was the culprit (type of magnesium? algae? filler?) So my criteria was to find a product that had the same/more amount of bone-supporting minerals in the ingredients. However, I did not want the product to include Calcium, Magnesium, D-3, K2-Mk7 or C, as I already take the amounts/types that work for me separately & I have the freedom to adjust when needed after lab results. I also took Strontium Citrate separately (VitaCost), as recommended.
The product that I found is LDA Trace Mineral complex by SFI Health (Amazon, but I think I found it for less thru FullScript $18 for 30 capsules). It requires only 1-capsule a day.
I had a dr scare me into starting the Evenity drug, so I plan to continue taking Strontium Citrate when the course of injections are over. I continue to take the trace minerals product daily.
Sorry if this is TMI, but thought it would be helpful to understand my decision-making process.
Blessings on your decision-journey!
