This product provides strontium, an important mineral that exerts multiple benefits on bones, teeth, and collagen. While strontium is found in soils, ocean water, and certain foods like fish and whole grains, the levels vary widely and dietary intake may not be optimal to support bone nutrition. To provide a safe and convenient way of enhancing dietary intake, this product supplies 300 mg of strontium in each vegetarian capsule as a stable, bioavailable citrate form.Strontium plays an important role in supporting the normal structure and function of the skeletal system. Nearly all strontium in the body occurs in bone, teeth, and connective tissue. Strontium supports the strength of the bone mineral matrix that gives rigidity and density to calcified tissues such as bones and teeth.Research shows that strontium has a unique dual ability to decrease bone resorption (the breakdown of the bone mineral matrix), while enhancing bone formation. Strontium provides these supportive effects by inhibiting the activity of osteoclast cells responsible for removing minerals from bone, while inducing the activity of osteoblast cells that form and maintain bone. Strontium may also support bone growth by promoting the production of collagen and other bone matrix proteins.
