@kathleen1314 Serious question, why are people like Keith McCormick, Dr. John Neustadt, Dr. Doug Lucas against Strontium? Two have their own supplements but they could add Strontium to their offerings. Dr. Neustadt said in a recent podcast with Doug Lucas that he doesn't like it because it skews a Dexa and he wants an accurate Dexa. That's it?

@loplady Would the problem of Strontium causing inaccurate DEXA results be eliminated if patient discontinued taking Strontium 24 hours, possibly longer, before their DEXA scan---like taking calcium or iron needs to be discontinued 24 hours before a DEXA?

@loplady different Dexa machines give different results
