See article keywords and concepts |  If you give strontium, you really increase bone density. How this works is a bit esoteric, but it makes sense.'
You do not want to give your strontium and your calcium together because they are going to compete. Calcium can inhibit uptake of strontium. So if you are taking your calcium, you are probably not going to pick up the strontium. You want to take them apart. This formula is designed so you can get your strontium and build your bones at a different time from the time you would take your calcium supplement.
Mike: Does the vitamin D also potentiate the strontium?

Strontium has recently received approval in Europe and Asia for treatment of osteoporosis. It becomes incorporated directly into the bone mineral, which creates an artifactual increase in BMD. However, strontium does appear to be an effective antiresorptive compound and has been shown to reduce fracture risk. |

A mineral involved in bone formation, studies have shown increased bone density with strontium supplementation
Strontium citrate: 227 mg t.i.d.
Folic Acid
Folate is important in the metabolism of homocysteine, a metabolic intermediate that may affect osteoporosis by interfering with collagen crosslinking, resulting in a defective bone matrix
400-1000 UG q.d.
Ipriflavone
(7-isopropoxyisoflavone)
Studies have shown this soy isoflavone increases bone density when combined with calcium, vitamin D, or hormone replacement
200 mg t.i.d. |

Mike: Does the vitamin D also potentiate the strontium?
Dr. Liers: Well, that is a good question. It certainly does that for calcium. You would think that it might have a similar effect. I have not seen any research on that. For me, vitamin D is in there because you need to get those minerals into the connective tissues and the bones in order to have a strong structure in the body.

See book keywords and concepts |  That would include things like magnesium and trace minerals such as strontium. strontium is a mineral you probably haven't heard of before, but when strontium is included in a program of nutritional supplementation, bone density responds very positively.
Milk also contains a lot of calories and saturated animal fats. Neither of these are lacking in the American diet. Far better sources of calcium include foods like broccoli. In fact, a cup of broccoli juice has more calcium than a cup of milk. My favorite source of calcium is the micro-algae known as Spirulina. |

See book keywords and concepts | | However, strontium does appear to be an effective antiresorptive compound and has been shown to reduce fracture risk. Because no studies of this compound have been conducted in the United States, it does not appear that strontium can ever receive FDA approval and so it is unlikely to be introduced into the American market.

See book keywords and concepts |  Studies conducted at Canada's McGill University have shown that some seaweeds (including arame, hiziki, and kombu) can help remove radioactive strontium from the body by means of alginic acid, which binds with strontium in the blood and carries it out of the system. Red seaweeds bind plutonium poison; brown binds strontium 90 and cadmium poisons; and green seaweed binds calcium and mercury poison. Seaweeds are one of the few good sources of organic fluorine, a nutrient that boosts the body's defenses and strengthens the teeth and bones. |
Dr. Edward F. Group III, DC, ND, DACBN
See book keywords and concepts | | Humans and other organisms need very small amounts of the heavy metals zinc, cobalt, manganese, molybdenum, vanadium, copper, and strontium, but even these elements can be damaging to the human body when consumed in excess.
Nonetheless, more than twenty different heavy metals are completely non-essential for human biology. Modern industry has found profitable uses for these toxic elements. The mining and refining of heavy metals has been on the rise ever since.

Are there any side effects or interactions?
Refer to the individual supplement for information about any side effects or interactions.
Herbs that may be helpful
Compounds present in both green tea (page 686) and black tea have been shown to inhibit the growth and activity of bacteria associated with tooth decay. | | Although the amounts of strontium used in these studies studies was very high, the optimal intake remains unknown. Some doctors recommend only 1 to 3 mg per day—less than many people currently consume from their diets, but an amount that has begun to appear in some mineral formulas geared toward bone health. strontium preparations, providing 200 to 400 mg per day, were used for decades during the first half of the twentieth century without any apparent toxicity. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Incorporation of fluoride and strontium into bone crystal is of particular relevance because these compounds have seen use as therapy for osteoporosis.
A. Bone Cells
The processes of bone formation and breakdown (resorption) require cellular activity. Three major cell types reside in bone and conduct these processes, osteoblasts, osteo-cytes, and osteoclasts.
Osteoblasts are the primary bone-forming cells. They derive from stem cells in the bone marrow stroma. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Magnesium: 400-600 mg daily.
• strontium (shown to help calcium to build better bone): 340 mg twice a day between meals, taken separately from calcium.
• Vitamin D: at least 800 IU daily.
• Vitamin K: 30-100 meg daily.
• Weight-bearing exercise, including some form of cardiovascular workout plus strength training.
• Eat some soy every day, preferably fermented (tempeh, miso). Unfer-mented soy milk and tofu will not have the same estrogen-like strengthening effect on bone. |

The body needs a full spectrum and balanced array of the minerals nature provides in foods grown in mineral-rich soil. When soil has become depleted of some of its minerals, foods grown in such soil will also be mineral-deficient. Relative sweetness is one test of determining whether raw foods have an adequate mineral content. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Many minerals are present in green tea, including chromium, calcium, magnesium, manganese, iron, copper, zinc, molybdenum, sodium, phosphorus, strontium, cobalt, nickel, and potassium. Depending on whether it was grown in selenium-rich or selenium-poor soil, green tea can also be a rich source of this essential mineral. Tea drinking can also be a significant source of manganese, a mineral used by the body in the digestion of protein and to maintain healthy bones and connective tissue. Just one cup of tea can provide the daily requirement of manganese. | | The minerals present in green tea include chromium, calcium, magnesium, manganese, iron, copper, zinc, molybdenum, selenium, sodium, phosphorus, strontium, cobalt, nickel, and potassium. Tea, and green tea in particular, is also an impressive source of fluoride—the mineral well known for fighting cavities. The water used in brewing tea as a beverage also contributes to its mineral content. |

See book keywords and concepts |  It also increases the body's rate of metabolism and promotes the cleansing and clearing of toxins, including radioactive strontium 90. Bladder wrack is used in the treatment of anemia, asthma, Candida, catarrh, constipation, cough, cysts, edema, fatigue, goiter, heartburn, high cholesterol, hormonal imbalance, hypertension, hypotension, hypothyroidism, lymph node enlargement, nail weakness, obesity, rheumatism, and tumors. Because bladder wrack helps stimulate a sluggish metabolism, it can be helpful as part of a weight-loss program. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Russian research indicates that the tannins in tea can help the body excrete strontium 90, a radioactive substance that can build up in the bones.
All in all, tea has many amazing therapeutic usages. More specificially, it is used in the treatment of allergies, arteriosclerosis, asthma, cancer, catarrh, cholera, high cholesterol, colds, congestion, coughs, depression, diarrhea, digestive tract infection, dysentery, external viral conditions (black tea), fatigue, fever, flu, hangover, hepatitis, influenza (green tea), migraines, obesity, tooth decay, typhus, and tumors. |

See book keywords and concepts | | The government-sponsored nuclear industry has released experimental quantities of radioactive iodine, cesium, and strontium into the atmosphere. Continual exposure to this incidental 1-131 maybe the origin of most current thyroid disorders.
It takes about 18 minutes for all the blood in the body to pass through the thyroid gland; it is the most thoroughly vascularized of all the endocrine glands. Most of our respective bodies are iodine conservative: we can absorb it through our skin in minutes when painted on. | | A bone building formula containing calcium, magnesium, zinc, boron, strontium, vitamin D, and vitamin K can help treat and prevent osteoporosis. A supplement of omega-3 fatty acids and nicotinic acid or inositol hexaniacinate can benefit serum lipid levels and therefore lower cardiovascular risk factors. In addition, since elevated homocysteine is associated with menopause, supplementing with vitamin B-6, B-12, folic acid, and betaine may be indicated to prevent cardiovascular disease. | | Other Nutrients: Additional studies suggest that vitamin B-6, vitamin C, zinc, copper, silicon, and strontium play roles in maintaining bone mass. Due to poor food choice and processed food, many of these nutrients are lacking in the American diet. A comprehensive nutritional supplement program that provides all of the vitamins and minerals involved in bone health may be valuable in preventing and treating osteoporosis.
Exercise
Exercise plays an important role in prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. |
