Strontium
Product Description
- Strontium citrate form for superior absorption
- Excellent for use with Silica-20™ and other bone health supplements*
†
Nearly all the strontium in the human body is found in bone and connective tissue. It's not surprising that in scientific studies, strontium has been shown to support new bone formation and increased bone mass, and enhance bone strength. Strontium from the Terry Naturally® brand of supplements is the perfect choice for any bone health regimen.*
While calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus are the primary trace minerals needed for bone health, they are not the whole story. Strontium is a necessary trace mineral for bone health, too.*
Strontium supports bone formation and healthy bone mineral density (BMD). Used in combination with Silica-20 and other bone-supporting supplements, Strontium aids in supporting healthy bone structure.* Since strontium and calcium compete for absorption, it is important to take this supplement two hours before or after a calcium-containing product.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How safe is strontium?
Strontium is very safe and non-toxic. This product contains strontium citrate, not strontium 90, the toxic radioactive form that may come to mind. Strontium citrate has been a safely used substance for over 100 years, and there have been studies using 2 grams of strontium with no significant side effects. While there are several forms of strontium in use today, strontium citrate is the most easily absorbed and used by the body.
However, strontium supplementation may be contraindicated for individuals with impaired renal function. Please consult your healthcare practitioner if this is a concern.
Can I take Strontium and a calcium-containing supplement at the same time?
For the best results, take Strontium at least two hours apart from when you take your calcium supplement. Both minerals compete for the same absorption pathways in the body, so it’s best to take them separately and with some time in between them.
