I don't believe that strontium is considered a nutrient and that makes
it difficult to recommend.
Strontium is considered to be an essential nutrient like calcium and
is available in small amounts from food. It is believed that the
strontium-calcium bone matrix is far stronger than calcium matrix
alone.
Who considers strontium to be an essential nutrient?
Is there a study that indicates that strontium in the bone matrix is
the cause of higher bone strength?
The physician's information sheet packed with the Strontium Renelate I
am taking includes some details of the studies made:
Two placebo controlled phase III studies: SOTI and TROPOS study. SOTI
involved 1,649 postmenopausal women with established osteoporosis (low
lumber BMD and prevalent vertebral fracture) and a mean age of 70
years....1,556 patients over 80 years at inclusion...reduced the
relative risk of fracture by 41 % over 3 years in the SOTI study
(table 1)...
