Acu-Cell Nutrition: Strontium
Strontium
When assessing Cellular Nutrition with Acu-Cell Analysis, only essential, biological elements that have
their own cell receptors are measured.  They are neurologically arranged into left-sided and right-sided
groups and are discussed in associated pairs, as they function as an inseparable, interdependent unit:
       _______________________________________________________________________

        CalciumMagnesium  PhosphorusSodium
        IronManganese  ZincPotassium
        SeleniumSulfur  TinIodine
        GermaniumSilicon  BismuthLithium
        NickelCobalt  ChromiumCopper
        FluorideChloride  VanadiumMolybdenum

       _______________________________________________________________________

Trace mineral symptoms of excess or deficiency are generally one-sided, depending on their ratios to
other chemical members, and depending which group they are neurologically assigned to.  In the event
of calcification, it is not a high calcium level that results in the formation of a stone or spur, but calcium
being high in ratio to associated or interactive elements.
For instance, phosphorus and zinc have both left-sided cell receptors, so if either level is low in ratio
to calcium, calcification would only take place on the left side of the body, whereas the cell receptors of
manganese or magnesium are right-sided, as a result, any calcification would develop on the right side
of the body only.
The same rules apply to most nutrition-related inflammatory or degenerative conditions, so successful,
non-symptomatic treatments require the application of those same principles.  Since intracellular and
serum levels of nutrients represent different physiological and pathological processes, abnormal levels
seen in one medium are not necessarily reflected in the other, so they need to be interpreted differently.

==============================================================================
   
Strontium:  I have not found a cell receptor for strontium (Sr) at this time, and to date, there are no
indications or medical evidence that strontium is essential to human health.

The action of strontium is closely related to that of calcium, although retention of strontium varies
inversely with calcium intake.  Supplementing larger amounts of strontium increases calcium, but not
magnesium retention, and it has the potential to lower stomach acid levels, insulin, WBC, germanium,
fluoride, bismuth, and silicon.  These effects should be kept in mind when considering strontium
supplementation in the treatment of osteoporosis.

In order to help increase bone mineral density (BMD), or for any of the above effects to take place,
over 1,000 mg of strontium has to be ingested daily (versus a few mg/day obtained through normal
food intake), and at those amounts, various medical problems may be experienced, which include
dental caries, rickets, abdominal spasms, nausea, diarrhea, headaches, skin irritation, blood clots,
fainting, memory problems, and seizures.  As a result, strontium does not appear to serve any unique
or specific purpose that no other, or better tolerated nutrient could fulfill.

Similarly to iodine pills being somewhat protective in case of a nuclear accident, taking small amounts
of the (non-radioactive) trace mineral strontium may offer the same protection when being exposed to
the radioactive form of strontium.  Some toothpastes that are marketed for "Sensitive Teeth" contain
strontium chloride as part of their formulation.  ¤

Dietary Reference Intake (DRI)  is a collective term replacing all other reference values such as
Adequate Intake (AI), Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL), Estimated Average Requirements (EAR),
Nutrient Reference Value (NRV),  and  Recommended Dietary Allowance / Intake (RDA / RDI).

Strontium:DRI (RDA):noneTherapeutic Range:10mg - 2,000mg

Estimated median daily intake of strontium worldwide from food and water is 1mg - 5mg per day.

Strontium Synergists:  Vitamin D, magnesium, vanadium,

Strontium Antagonists:  Calcium, phosphorus, insoluble fiber,

Low Levels / Therapeutic Indications for Strontium:
Decreased growth in animals, dental caries, osteoporosis, bone pain,

High levels / Overdose / Toxicity / Negative Side Effects - Symptoms and/or Risk Factors:
Dental caries, rickets, abdominal spasms, nausea, diarrhea, headaches, skin irritation, blood clots,
fainting, memory problems, seizures.

Strontium Sources:  Most plant foods, dairy, (Brazil) nuts, seawater. ¤

==============================================================================

General recommendations for nutritional supplementation:  To avoid stomach problems and promote
better tolerance, supplements should always be taken earlier, or in the middle of a larger meal.  When
taken on an empty stomach or after a meal, there is a greater risk of some tablets causing irritation, or
eventually erosion of the esophageal sphincter, resulting in Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).
It is also advisable not to lie down immediately after taking any pills.
When taking a very large daily amount of a single nutrient, it is better to split it up into smaller doses to
not interfere with the absorption of other nutrients in food, or nutrients supplemented at lower amounts.
