Apparently it had too much magnesium for my system. I’m now using New Chapter Bone Strength since it also is made with algae, D3,K1, K2, Strontium, silicon, and vanadium, but in lesser amounts. Seems to agree with me a lot better! I’m anxious to know what my next bone/scan will say!!
When is your next bone scan? Do let us know what happens.
I’m taking something very similar to Algaecal. Hopefully there’s an improvement with the next DEXA! I just dont want to take any of those meds or injections. The side affects are terrible.
I'm taking it right now. It's only been a couple of weeks. So far, so good!!
Cheer19, I take Alive! Calcium for Bones, it contains calcium derived from red algae just as AlgaeCal does. I switched from calcium citrate to it apx 2-3 weeks ago, no side effects! As for my bone density, I won't know anything until my next DEXA scan in May. Waiting and wondering are stressful! 💚
