Sharonrose McMarr-Schroeder - South Carolina, USA

I now know that I don't have to accept bone loss as I go through my life, and neither do you within your life! Written in my medical file as the doctor’s response is this, and I quote: 7% improvement in the hip and spine from last bone density.

I'm Sharon, a retired educator in my mid 70s. For years I've had bone loss and thought I had to tolerate it and adjust my activities as I aged with it. That was a growing concern. I now know that I don't have to accept bone loss as I go through my life, and neither do you within your life! I'm sharing my story with you, my journey toward strength and flexibility using the Bone Builder package.

Pull up a chair! I wrote a bit and want to read to you and share my story. I think I had long been waiting for a breakthrough in treatment that would respond to my condition by strengthening my bones without negative side effects, or multiple injections or infusions. Using online information, I finally found a research based program offering AlgaeCal Plus and Strontium Boost capsules, as well as a strong information and support system to increase adult bone density.

I've used these products and the resources over the last three years. A comparison between 2021 and 2024 DEXA scans shows positive results in spine, neck and hip. It was a sporadic use of the capsules the first year. I did better after that, I was more aware and followed directions and I created an easy system to support my intent.

I still have previous negative bone loss, but I'm kicking it! I've got things to do like gardening, doing lots of travel, dancing, newly exercising at the gym and more. My life has opened, not closed down as a result of my success in finding the best treatment plan for me. The journey continues.

Written in my medical file, as the doctor’s response to my bone density scan on November 6th, 2024 is this, and I quote: Osteoporosis is noted, but 7% improvement in the hip and spine from last bone density. So keep it up!

Sherry Varner - Texas, USA

When people find out I'm 70, they're usually surprised and they think I'm younger. I am sold on Triple Power. I'm very pleased with it.

Hi, I'm Sherry Varner, and I'm 70 years old. In 2011, a DEXA scan showed that I had significant bone loss. In 2013, on a Facebook ad, I saw information about AlgaeCal, so I checked into it and looked good. So I started the Bone Builder Pack, instead of taking the drugs. In 2019, AlgaeCal introduced Triple Power and what caught my attention was it reduced inflammation and inflammation causes bone loss.

So I checked into fish oil further, and I discovered that these things were true and that it also helps with eyes, skin, heart, liver, mental health. It's just really good for a lot of things. Why did I choose Triple Power as opposed to other fish oils? Well, I trusted the company. I love that you can, I've called them on the phone and they've talked to me at length.

I love that they have research and studies. Their website is so informative. I love that it's bio available. In other words, more than other fish oils, it can be utilized by the body better than most can be absorbed. Also, the fact that it has turmeric, curcumin and astaxanthin is a huge benefit. You can read about those benefits on the website and other sources.

It's also third party tested and it tastes good. Let me talk to you about some of the benefits that I've seen. I'm just going to talk about left total hip. In 2011 it was -2.4. In 2018 it was -1.3. And then I started taking Triple Power in 2019. And in 2024 it was -0.6 which is normal, -1.0 is normal and mine was -0.6, which is better than that.

As far as my eyes, they have not gotten any worse since I started taking Triple Power in 2019. I have reading glasses that I use for fine print occasionally that are 1.5 strength that I get at the grocery store, and they work just fine. My vision hasn't gotten any worse, and I don't have dry eyes or any other eye issues.

As far as my skin, when people find out I'm 70, they're usually surprised and they think I'm younger. I am sold on Triple Power. I'm very pleased with it, and I plan to take it for the rest of my life.

Cindy Geston - Fargo, ND

Hello, my name is Cindy, and I've been on AlgaeCal for the past two and a half years. I'm 59 years old. I had my first DEXA scan when I was 55, my doctor ordered it and I'd always been a runner, lifted weights, very healthy person, I thought, so I was quite excited for the results to come back.

So when they came back and I had a lumbar spine number of -3 and a right femur of -2.6, I was absolutely devastated. So I felt very frustrated and just went on typical calcium pills for a year, didn't know what else to do. And then a year later I found AlgaeCal and thought, I will give that a try.

So I started AlgaeCal and 15 months after starting that I had my next bone scan, which was actually two and a half years from my first one, but just 15 months after going on AlgaeCal, my lumbar spine had gone from -3 to a -2.6 and my right femur had gone from -2.6 to -2.2.

I was then seeing a bone specialist at that time and she immediately had said, "Keep doing what you're doing, it's working and we'll recheck you in a year."

So I was completely delighted and I kept doing my, you know, walking and running and weightlifting and trying to eat healthy and had another bone scan 15 months after that, which was just a few weeks ago. And my numbers now had gone from 18 months ago to a -2.6 in my lumbar spine to -2.2 and my right femur from -2.6 or -2.2 to -2.1.

So all in all, I have had a huge increase in my bone mass. From the first time I started taking AlgaeCal two and a half years ago, I've gone from a -3 to a -2.2 in my spine and a -2.6 to a -2.1 in my right femur.

So I am completely encouraged and I'm now going to start adding the fish oil and I encourage anyone to try it. It truly works, there was no side effects, it's easy to take and gave me such great peace of mind.

The radiologist even noted on my report that the increase was statistically significant and the doctors are encouraging me to keep doing what I'm doing. So thank you to AlgaeCal, and I hope you have the same good results.

Lisa Henson - Austin, TX

Hi, my name's Lisa Henson. I just turned 58 years old and I started taking AlgaeCal probably about four years ago. And after a year of taking it, I was due for my bone density exam. And my T-score was not exactly where it should have been or where my doctor would have liked it to be. So I was told to take more calcium and maybe do some weight-bearing exercises. I did this for another year. Unfortunately, the T-score was still not where it should be. So at that time, I added Strontium Boost to the four AlgaeCal pills a day I was taking.

My next bone density test told a different story than the previous test. The difference was so startling that the person performing the test thought the machine was malfunctioning. Next thing I know, the radiologist came into the room to redo my bone density test and it still showed the same improvement. The past summer I started taking the maintenance dose of AlgaeCal, so three AlgaeCal along with two Strontium Boost. So I'll be interested next summer to see where my T-score winds up then. But it has significantly gone up and I'm feeling much better so, I highly recommend this product!

Lori Yob - Spokane, WA

It was scary when I first got the result.

And I decided I'd better go see my doctor and get a follow-up bone density. It was scary. I had never been in a situation like that before, and I was concerned for my bone health at that time, and mine showed a minus 2.3. I was taking another product that had calcium, Vitamin D. I took that for two more years before I had another bone test. And when I had that test, everything stabilized. It hadn't gotten any worse, it hadn't gotten any better. It pretty much stayed the same. I didn't have another bone density then for three more years. When I went to the health fair and they had the ankle scan there, and I just took it because they had it. So I was pretty, pretty scared at that point and wanted something that would work, that would help build my bone back up. The things that I was afraid of were limited activity. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to do the things I like to do. We jog, we bike-ride. We do a lot of physical activities. We swim and water ski at the lake. We snow ski, cross-country ski. There's a lot of physical activity that I love to do, and I was really afraid of that. I was afraid of a fracture in my lumbar spine, which would have been awful. I mean it would have been terrible. It would have been painful. It would have been very limiting to my lifestyle. I see patients that have undergone different procedures in the hospital to put bone cement in those fractures to seal them up so that they weren't turning so bad. I've seen patients that have been bedridden because of the fractures and not able to get around. And I think that immobility is what really caused me to wanna do something. My husband was also afraid for me. And as I explained it to him in medical terms, he was very concerned. My sister-in-law, who actually is in naturopath, and she told me, I actually contacted her because I knew she had just completed a course, and maybe she would know a supplement that I could take that would help, and she told me about AlgaeCal. She said that she had seen that. She knew that it had clinical studies that went with it, and so I started researching it at that point. I looked at the clinical studies online and read about them, and that impressed me the most. Being from a medical background, it impressed me that they had done clinical studies, and patients had actually tried the product and seen the difference. So as I researched AlgaeCal, I was skeptical. There's a lot of other supplements out there that have some of the same kinds of claims, although they don't have clinical studies to back it up. I've been taking AlgaeCal since 2008 when I was first diagnosed. So I waited almost a year and a half before I went to the doctor and got another bone strength test. I came home from work that night, and I went to the mailbox, and I had the results of my test in the mail that had been sent to me, and it showed a 7 1/2% increase in my spine. The next year, I increased 9.7% in my lumbar spine. So, we've had wonderful results. I know that at the beginning of all of this, I had aching in my spine, and now I have none of that, and I feel strong, and I'm doing things that I love to do, and it's working. I'm only gonna keep going up because I'm not gonna quit taking the product. It's worked, it's shown results, and I do feel strong, and I'm seeing that it's gonna be something that I'll be living with the rest of my life. Even if I get into the normal range, I won't quit taking the product because I wanna maintain that bone health. And it's given me a peace of mind that my bone is getting back where it needs to be. I'm most happy about being able to continue in the activities that I love doing. I love exercising, I love running and biking and playing with my little granddaughter. And I'm gonna be able to do those kinds of things because my bone is getting stronger. I wish that more people knew about it. And I'm doing my best to tell people what I know and how it's helped me. But I wish that it was more widespread for people to hear, especially the clinical trials. I think that's what, for me, made the difference.

I'm thankful that it's given me my life back, really, because I can keep doing the things that I love to do.

Shawn Mulligan - Tucson, AZ

Hi, my name is Shawn Mulligan. I'm 55 years old and I'm beyond thrilled about just learning of some very impressive results that I've received on my bone density. And this is after using AlgaeCal for a year. So I've benefited so much from testimonials that I read and listened to on the website a year and a half ago so I hope this is helpful for you.

At age 47 I discovered that I had moderately poor bone health. It actually scared me. It was so jarring that I thought I was going to break a bone walking across the room. So I took supplements and tried to make sure I was exercising.

So fast forward to a year ago when I was 54, despite my yoga practice and climbing a 1.5 mile hill once a week and taking my supplements, my bone density now was worsening to the point where I'm at a high risk for fracture. I'm 55 years old now wondering why I would be at high risk for fracture with all that activity. It seemed unfair.

A friend forwarded me the AlgaeCal website in 2017 and I reviewed it and I was impressed and peer-reviewed research means something to me in my health care decisions. And I found that peer review research on the AlgaeCal website. So I poured through that website, I spent several hours looking at everything on there, there's a lot of interesting material and I decided to start the program.

So I want to tell you after a year on this program I've had a whopping 7% improvement in my hips and a 3% improvement in my femur. I'm beyond thrilled! My activity level was pretty much the same; about 6 months into that year I added another day a week of the hill climb and I added some weights during the week also.

AlgaeCal is definitely providing me a very safe and natural means of restoring my bone health and I could not be happier, so much so I've committed another year to the Bone Building Program and I'm looking forward to some fabulous results. I hope this video has helped you and will help you in your decision process. Thank you so much.

Valerie Owens - High Springs, FL

Hi, my name is Valerie. I'm a 55-year-old wife, mother of three, grandmother of three, and a proud dog owner. This is my personal story. March 11th, 2012, I was rear-ended, at a high rate of speed. My car was completely totaled. I sustained a whiplash, a concussion, soft tissue damage, bruised liver, and L4, L5, and S1 herniation. I was in physical therapy for months, massage therapy for months, I had steroid injections. I was taking steroids. I was on anti-inflammatories - the entire protocol.

Months went by and the pain was not subsiding. I was told that if it didn't subside by the third round of steroid injections that I would probably end up having to have spinal surgery. Well, in October of 2015, I had a fall. With that fall, I ruptured the disk that got injured during that car accident. So, needless to say, 2015, I had my first lumbar spinal surgery. After the spinal surgery, I was very dedicated to doing everything that I was told by my surgeon, which was to walk, to rest, to ice, to take the medications, go back in for steroid shots if need be. Also, engage in physical therapy. I did all those things again.

Nothing worked. So needless to say, months later I go back in and I'm telling my doctor that I'm still in excruciating pain. So we did more tests, and we found out that the surgery had failed. Where the screws were into my spine. They were now wobbly, the bone did not grow back. I also learned that I had a degenerative bone disease that came from my mother's side of the family, and I was blessed with it.

So, in June 2016 I went back in for my second lumbar spinal surgery where spaces were put in to decompress some of the vertebrates, to take some of the pressure off of the nerves. After that, I started losing hope because I was back to walking, back to physical therapy, back In hydrotherapy where I was water walking, back to doing slow weights - easy weights, eating right - eating all the calcium-rich fortifying foods, all the things that I thought would help my bones get stronger. Because I was devastated to learn that I had a degenerative bone disorder, on top of two spinal surgeries.

So at my age, once you do a mammogram, you can also do a bone density test, and I was brave, and did the bone density test. During that time, I had learned that my neck T-Score was a -2.3, my lumbar spine at L3 was a -2.2. I was pretty bummed, but determined to find something that could help increase my bone density. There had to be something out there!

So after searching the web and social media I stumbled across this product called AlgaeCal Plus. I read all the literature that I could find on it. I watched the tutorials, I read blogs, I read the research, and then another day when I'm sitting there, scrolling through the TV channels, I see on Dr. Oz that they advertise this AlgaeCal Plus, and how it increased bone mineral density.

So I thought, "Well, if it's on Dr. Oz, and it's on social media, there's gotta be something to it right?" So I took the chance. I ordered AlgaeCal Plus with Strontium Boost. My order arrived on April 28th, 2017, and I immediately started taking it. I was so excited and I had so much hope that I couldn't wait until 7 months came to have another bone density test to see if I had any improvement. My goal was just to stop. Just to stop the bone loss.

So on November 16th, 2017 I went in for another DEXA scan. And my doctor herself came out to the waiting room and got me to give me my results. She came in, got me, went back, didn't even have the door closed when she's telling me, "You've got to scan your report and send it to AlgaeCal because you have 11.1% bone mineral density increase. 11.1%!" That's greater than my anticipation.

My hope ballooned! My choice of taking AlgaeCal Plus, with Strontium Boost paid off, and it's paying off even more because now my doctor, who says, "Scan your report, send it to AlgaeCal, get me the information on AlgaeCal Plus, tell all your friends about AlgaeCal Plus, go on social media! Do what you have to do, but there's something to this product".

So I'm here to tell you that November 16th, I got my results back, and from April, when my neck was a -2.3, it is now a -1.9, and at L3 when it was a -2.2, it is now a -0.5. So AlgaeCal team, AlgaeCal researchers. Thank you! Thank you for coming up with such an incredible product that has given me back my life, and given me back hope...

Oarlene Wingate - North Bend, OR

Hello, my name is Oarlene Wingate. I'm 17 years old, and I've been playing tennis for the last 25 years.

So you can imagine my surprise when in 2015, my bone density scan results showed low T-scores, in the hip -2.3. And in the lumbar spine, -2.9. And I increased my physical activity to playing tennis every day Monday through Friday for at least an hour, sometimes two hours, sometimes three hours and would join my husband a couple times a week on his daily walks with the dog three miles. Then I found AlgaeCal with Strontium. It guarantees improvement within the seven year period or your money back. I wanted bone improvement. I've been taking different kinds of supplements for the last 14 years and my T-scores have continued to decline within that time. So for the past eight months, I've been taking AlgaeCal with Strontium and the Triple Plus Omega 3 and my bone scan this month, December 2017 came back with the best results. All of my T-scores have improved. I'm overjoyed. I don't know what to say I'm so grateful to have found AlgaeCal. My hip scores have increased 5% on the left and 6% on the right hip. And my lumbar spine has increased 13% it went from a -2.9 to a -1.7. I have shared my good news with everyone. My sister, my daughters, my cousins, my nieces, my friends, all of my friends and I can't thank you enough AlgaeCal for providing a product that works.

Thank you.

Mildred Enchelmaier - New Jersey

Hi, my name is Mildred Enchelmaler. I'm from New Jersey, On November 27th, 2007, I was walking with my husband when I fell on the sidewalk. When I was unable to get up, a passerby called the police and rescue squad. In the hospital, it was determined that I had broken bones. My right femur was broken, and my left foot, the bone was broken there, and my right arm.

After surgery, I was admitted to a rehab facility for two months. My daughter recommended AlgaeCal and Strontium Boost. My joints were also painful, and I was unable to even hold a needle between my fingers.

One year later, my bones were significantly improved. And now today, I am pain-free, and my bones are doing great. My friends call me a miracle.
