I learned about AlgaeCal from the Dr. Oz television program. It made very good sense so I ordered the 6 month Combination set. I took the AlgaeCal and Strontium Boost for 5 months. I have just opened my sixth bottle and it was time for my DEXA Scan. The results showed that I had gone from low bone density to normal in my left hip. I feel that was a great improvement in a very short amount of time. I will continue to use these fine products and can hardly wait to see what happens in my next scan in the fall of 2013. Keep up the good work.

Hi, I am 67 small boned, thin & bendy…. VERY active, I discovered I had mild bone loss when I was 62 the usual ankle test, so I upped my calcium citrate, & magnesium intake…. cal chews, dairy, did weight-bearing exercise.. in addition I am a healthy eater... Then after some time I had my first bone DEXA test about a year later and  I was told I have severe bone loss, I was in disbelief that I had gotten worse after supplementing and making a real effort.

A girlfriend said try AlgaeCal, I researched that, it made sense but it was the money back guarantee that sold me because it seemed the promise was real & that they stood behind their product 100%…which nobody does anymore. I insisted that I have another bone DEXA test from my doctor (which was hard to get) after 6 months of taking AlgaeCal 2 pills 2x a day and Strontium 2 pills 1x per day (not together, with considerable time in between)  my DEXA test T scores went up from …-2.7, -2.7, -2.9  to  -1.9, -2.4, -2.3 …better, improved!…. I continue to supplement with AlgaeCal, in the evening, some strontium in the AM and:

  • I make kale lemonade w/my juicer
  • Lots of green drinks
  • And chicken foot broth
  • Kale, spinach, black sesame seeds, almonds in my food
  • I do Yoga 1 X per week & some minimal gym workouts

And hope my next DEXA coming up is even better!

Virginia Can Now Bend and Twist Without Any Pain

I am 67 years young.  I have been an advocate for natural healing for many years. I once managed a health food store and heard many stories from my customers of remarkable healing using natural approaches. I myself have healed myself and my family members, over the years, using natural supplements and foods.

But, I realized recently that I had developed a sort of blind spot regarding calcium. I knew that most calcium supplements are made from oyster shells and are not fully utilized within the body and can contribute to calcium "deposits". So, I tended to avoid taking them. I figured I could get the calcium I needed in the foods I ate. However, I failed to consider that I was eating less calcium-rich dairy foods since I seemed to feel better when I avoided them.

About a year ago, I noticed that my lower back, left side, was becoming increasingly painful and sore when I bent over even a little. The pain grew worse and worse over time. Eventually, I could feel it spread to my hip joint as well. I tried using topical oils and lots of cod liver oil and vitamin D. But, it seemed like there was something missing from those that my body really needed to heal.

During a visit to the doctor for another internal problem, I had an X-ray. I overheard the doctor telling a nurse that the X-ray showed everything normal except for some obvious deterioration of the spine.

After hearing this, I decided to take action and find some supplements that would specifically help my bones and discs in my spine strengthen. I could actually "feel" the bulging disc when I pressed my fingers where the pain was in my lower back. I knew that further deterioration was likely if I kept ignoring the problem.

I went online and found several kinds of calcium supplements. Then I found AlgaeCal and really liked that it was derived from algae rather than oyster shells, which I knew could be assimilated by my body more easily. I also liked that it was shown to be effective in building bone density. I went ahead and ordered a bottle to try.

I started taking two capsules each morning and afternoon. I noticed that the pain was lessening on the third day. It was still there. But, it was not as intense. After the first week, my back definitely felt better. I started doing some simple stretches, hoping to lessen the bulging disc I could feel on my left side. I slowly improved and was able to stretch farther and bend more without pain. And to my surprise, the bulging disc began to subside.

I ordered three more bottles of AlgaeCal. Then, as an experiment, I went for a while without taking any and noticed that the pain started to return. So, I started taking the four capsules a day again, and to my surprise, the pain went away again.

I now have been taking AlgaeCal for about two months, every day and each day I have felt improvement. The bulging disc is almost imperceptible now. It has definitely been healing. I can bend and twist without any pain. In fact, I feel strong and flexible like I did when I was young.

As a result of this miraculous recovery, I am able to do yoga stretches on a regular basis. I know AlgaeCal was instrumental in bringing me to my current state of health and I am committed to taking it every day. Thank you so much for making a great product.

Dietary Calcium Wasn’t Enough To Increase Ellen’s Bone Density

I went a couple of years taking nothing more than vitamin D for my bones and hoping I was getting enough calcium in my diet, but that did not end up being the case. I ended up with severe bone loss. So I started looking on the internet to see what else might be available. It was that search that introduced me to AlgaeCal and Strontium. So I discussed it with my doctor and told him I would have another bone density scan in 6 months to see if the product lived up to what the info said would happen.

Well, it did, with my bone scan showing an 8.1% increase in bone mineral density at the total hip. However, I do still have some bone loss at the hip and lumbar spine and so I have ordered another 6 month supply of the product. Knowing that my bone density has already improved and will continue improving I feel better about facing the winter snow and ice knowing that if I fall my bones will be better equipped to withstand the impact.

My story goes like this. I’m a 74-year-old woman taking AlgaeCal. I had a bone scan and another a year later. The findings were fairly significant. The radiologists comments were: The current scan is compared with the previous one dated a year earlier. In the interval, there has been a:

  • 5.8% increase in the BMD in the lumbar spine
  • 13% increase in the right femoral neck
  • 5.4% increase in the left femoral neck

Frohna, Brian, MD I can only attribute the results to AlgaeCal, a healthy diet and some exercise. I take no other meds except for a periodic baby aspirin. Thank you for a product that actually does what it says.

Hi, I had a DEXA scan bone density test in December of 2012. For the past year and three months, I have been taking AlgaeCal and Strontium Boost.

My latest DEXA scan in March showed a 4.1% increase in my bone density. This product reversed my bone loss, and I want everyone to know how pleased I am with it. Thank you.
