Exercise to strengthen bones (for osteoporosis)

That's a pretty low dosage - some of the bone formulas have 450 mg (and more) of strontium citrate.
It's probably strontium citrate because strontium ranelate was not approved for use in the U.S. and was discontinued elsewhere about six years ago due to adverse cardiac events.

Strontium ranelate was by prescription , but it is no longer available due to cardiovascular/clot risks, in the EU. Strontium citrate is the only form in the US.
@callalloo I separate my calcium and magnesium and avoid any supplements that mix them. My doc agreed with what I read, that they compete with each other. I don't know why, if that is true, so many supplements have calcium and magnesium together, but to be on the safe side, I take them at least 2 hours apart.
