Are you interested in an alternative to prescription drugs for
osteoporosis? Strontium builds stronger bones than drugs like Fosamax,
Actonel, or Boniva but without the dangerous side effects. For more
information about strontium for treating osteoporosis, please visit
Strontium For Bones at http://strontiumforbones.blogspot.com/. My
blog offers visitors discussions, information, and links which will be
updated periodically.

The blog took too long download when I wanted to comment for impatient
me.
The blog mentions also taking 1200 mg of calcium, 500 mg of Magnesium,
and a 1000 IU of D.

I'll suggest you use some other form than magnesium oxide as it
has quite poor absorbed out of the gut. Citrate or even sulfate
forms are better absorbed. Split the dose 3 or 4 ways to avoid
loose bowels.

Don't assume a 1000 IU of D is enough. If you are made of
money have your late winter serum value checked as the
is likely your yearly nadir value for 25 OH vitamin D.
Choose vitamin D3 especially if you are taking large
loading dose. The body doesn't hang on to the so-called
vitamin D2 (really analog to what is the real vitamin....Vitamin D3).
Consider taking a higher dose during the Fall and Winter months.
Also consider taking a large vitamin K2. And there are
various forms of K2 the two that are available here in the
States over the counter are vitamin K2 MK-4 and MK-7.
If you live in Canada, Health Canada wants you to hurry
up and break a bone and die as the forbid vitamin K supplements.
For no good reasons other than the exercise of power.
Vitamin K helps to prevent ectopic
calcifications. Which is a bugaboo of the anti-vitamin crowd
when it comes to vitamin D use. Interestingly
high PTH levels caused by low vitamin D levels are
a risk factor for ectopic calcium deposits in the soft tissues.
Think milligrams not micrograms on the topic of vitamin K
supplementation.

Can I just ask ... since this is not a prescription that is dispensed by
a pharmacy and prescribed by a doctor, and has never been through any
kind of clinical trial, how would we really know whether there are side
effects or not?

You must be real impatient, as even with dial-up, this blog only takes a
minute to download so please come back and check it out and make your
comments.

The blog mentions also taking 1200 mg of calcium, 500 mg of Magnesium,
and a 1000 IU of D.

Don't assume a 1000 IU of D is enough.

Clinical trials have shown that 1000 IU is a safe and effective amount for
Vitamin D. Taking too much D, as it is stored in the body, could result in
not only toxicity but loss of calicium from bone and calcium deposits in
arteries and organs.

If you are made of money have your late winter serum value checked as the
is likely your yearly nadir value for 25 OH vitamin D.

I hope not, I would hate another 4 more years of a republican
president.
