Supports Bone Mineral DensityClinically Effective DosePromotes Healthy Bone Growth and MineralizationWorld's First Strontium Citrate SupplementStrontium is an important mineral for bone health and is found in most foods containing calcium. While supplements like calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin K maintain bone health, and conventional bone health medications reduce bone breakdown, strontium actually helps rebuild bones. It does this by increasing the production of osteoblasts while decreasing the production of osteoclasts, leading to increased bone development and decreased bone loss. Since strontium's molecular structure is similar to that of calcium, it is believed to activate calcium receptors in bone, which stimulates the formation of new bone tissue and prompts the body to efficiently use calcium in bone tissue, while inhibiting bone breakdown. Strontium Support II is an excellent complement to calcium supplementation for people with osteoporosis or osteopenia, postmenopausal women, or those at increased risk of bone fractures. In 2002, AOR introduced the world's first strontium citrate supplement for people with osteoporosis, osteopenia, postmenopausal women, and those at increased risk of bone fractures. AOR's Strontium Support II is available in two sizes and provides an effective dose of this bone health powerhouse in a convenient one-to-two-capsule-per-day formula.
Adults: Take one or two capsules daily on an empty stomach, at least two hours before or after a meal or after consuming calcium or milk; these foods can significantly reduce strontium absorption if taken together. Ensures an adequate daily intake of calcium and vitamin D.
