Strontium citrate (Algaecal) and fractures

@kathleen1314 I agree that her reaction and mine may not be the same. I do know that I hesitated to take the strontium . I finally started due to good reviews and within 2 days, I had hives. Coincidence? Maybe, but I had taken nothing different than my regular vitamins. I have never had hives before, so I still feel that strontium caused my reaction . It is starting to subside after 3 days without taking the strontium again. Algae Cal was quick to refund me when I contactd them. Just cautioning others.

Ah, so you took algae Cal, not just strontium citrate.
That could be a clue.
When you evaluate a reaction you have to look at additives and everything in the product. Algae Cal has several ingredients, additives plus there are different forms of algae cal. Which one did you take?
I suggest if you are still interested in strontium citrate that you take a purer form. AOR makes a form with few additives plus it is monitored by the Canadian government where they monitor supplements the way the FDA monitors drugs.
The story is always more layered when you dig into it isn't it., and definitely not as straight forward.
