Hello, and wow thank you for this. I happened to read this and am thankful as I just had some bloodwork done and my BUN level is elevated. This tells me I need to reevaluate this. At the minimum, if anyone elects to try strontium definitely stay extremely hydrated. I will back off for a bit and retest. Will update again when and if I decide to try it again.

The concerns with kidneys and strontium exists with most osteoporosis drug, and many supplements plus some foods.
The problem exists with the kidney and not the strontium.
Basically, if the kidneys are too ill/weak to clear the strontium then it might build up in your system. The same goes for many osteoporosis drugs and many supplements and even some foods.
Said another way: The primary concern with strontium and many osteoporosis medications is not that they cause kidney damage, but that they require healthy kidneys to be effectively cleared from the body.
In summary, the "problem" is often the pre-existing state of the kidneys which determines whether these substances can be used safely.
