Hi singingirl...i started taking strontium because i was afraid of the side effect from the current osteo drugs and just decided I didn't want it into my body. I've been taking it for almost 2 years and did show improvements on the DEXA i had last June. I've had no sideeffects and feel its a safe alternative to what's offered now. I also take calcium, magnesium, D3. fish oil and a multivitamin for the over 50 crowd. I walk most days and do weight training a few times a week.
You can get the Myth of Osteoporosis at the library. If they don't ahve a copy ask them to order it from another library in their system. All the books on osteo are good, but this one offers a different POV.
There is a new thread started by Myth about EZorb, that you might want to read, she offers some good insight into her experience with Ezorb. take care...phyllis
