Julie Increased 9% In Her Lumbar Spine And 5.1% In Her Right Hip…In Just 1 Year!
My name is Julie Cooke and I’m 59 years old. I live in Auckland, New Zealand. I’ve had rheumatoid arthritis for more than 30 years.
When I had a bone density test in June 2013, it showed a marked deterioration from 2 years previously with osteoporosis in my right hip and my lumbar spine in the osteopenia range. I started taking AlgaeCal and strontium following those tests.
In July this year, I had another bone density test. I was delighted that the report noted a substantial increase in my bone density, with a 9% improvement in my lumbar spine and a 5.1% improvement in my right hip.
The only change in my medication has been the introduction of AlgaeCal and Strontium, which I credit with this improvement. And the first time I began taking these products, I had just felt better. And now, of course, I am delighted to have improved my bone density in just one year. I realize I have further to go to improve my right hip in particular, and intend to continue taking these products. I would recommend AlgaeCal and strontium to anyone concerned about their bone density.
Thank you for making such wonderful products available, that not only improve bone density, but also have none of the nasty side effects of prescription medication. I also find the regular e-mail updates very interesting and useful. Thank you so much.

A Bone Density Increase of 10%… Despite Being on Thyroid Medication!
“Approximately 5 years ago, I was diagnosed with osteopenia, thanks to the effects of menopause. At that time, I could not open a jar or anything without wincing in pain. My yearly DEXA scan consistently reflected a decline in bone mass, even though I faithfully took calcium supplements, I exercised, and I tried to follow a pretty good diet. Last year’s DEXA scan revealed osteoporosis of the lower spine a -3, which wasn’t good at all, as well as in my hip. Wanting to find an alternative to pharmaceutical medication, I came across the AlgaeCal website – actually guaranteeing an increase bone density, or double my money back.
When I placed my order I found out that I would not be eligible for getting a refund if my bone mass didn’t increase simply because I was on thyroid medication. Well I’ve been on thyroid [medication] for 20 plus years, but I thought you know what, why not give it a try. I was on all these other supplements for a number of years, calcium supplements, really, when I thought they were best money could buy. But my bone mass continued to decline. So I said why not give AlgaeCal a chance. I didn’t get a refund from other calcium supplements that I purchased, so why not give AlgaeCal a chance. And I am so glad that I did.
I recently had another bone scan, and I am thrilled to say it reflected:
An 8.1% increase in my spine
A 10% increase in my hip
My doctor was overjoyed. He was amazed, and I just thank God for leading me to the AlgaeCal website. By the way, I have no pain or weakness in my hands, and my nails are stronger than ever, and I look forward to getting even better a result on next year’s DEXA scan. Thank you AlgaeCal!”
*With the help of AlgaeCal, Linda increased her spine by 8.1% and her hip by 10% – all while on a thyroid medication.
While we are unable to guarantee your bone density will improve while on medication, Linda’s experience shows that when you take a natural approach to your health, there’s no limit to what your body can do.
And in Linda’s case, not only did AlgaeCal work, but it did wonders.
AlgaeCal Plus is the world’s only USDA certified organic calcium, has no side effects and is a safe, natural and EFFECTIVE way to get the calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, vitamin K you need as well as 73 other trace minerals.
When it comes to your health, you deserve the best.

The Lifestyle of 40-Year-Old Vegetarian, Cindy, Will Amaze You – Yet She Still Got Osteoporosis
My background:
I’ve been a vegetarian for 40 years and stopped eating refined sugar and flour at that time.
I exercise and am outside a LOT.
I meditate and am retired so have a low stress level.
Even so, after I turned 60 health issues appeared. First was osteoarthritis in my hands. After much searching and trial I have found a great product that works wonderfully. It is called CM Response. Cetyl-M is a main ingredient. I learned of Cetyl-M from a top notch equine hospital and saw it work on horses. CM Response is the human product. It took a couple bottles before it started to really work but work it did. After a couple years my dosage is now 3/day but I believe I started with 6. My hands are still lumpy and fingers crooked but there is zero pain.
The next year the osteoporosis issue popped up. I was very surprised by this because I have always been very healthy. About 10 years earlier I had a drugstore test where they check your heel and I was above average at that point. Well 10 years had made a difference and part of what happened in that 10 years a friend of mine had melanoma and I started using a lot of sunscreen and sunblock clothing. I think I had a problem with not getting enough vitamin D.
Anyways in September 2012, I had osteoporosis in both hips and in my spine. The spine being the worst. It was minus -3.1. So I was in a panic as most of us do and did a lot of research and didn’t like what I read. As far as medications are concerned and the side effects. I went on forums where people were really having those side effects happen. I’ve been a vegetarian since 1975 and I don’t eat sugar and medications don’t really suit my temperament. So I decided to see what else was out there and found AlgaeCal.
Well, I’ve tried it for a year and just went back for my follow up DEXA scan with very good results. My left hip has improved 3.9%, right hip 6.4% and best of all spine 7.5%. So I’m very happy. I don’t have osteoporosis in either hip anymore. It is now osteopenia and I’m borderline on spine. So maybe next year this time, I won’t have osteoporosis at all. So this had made me very happy.
I also tried to keep my diet on the alkaline side and and bought a 10 lb vest to wear when walking. However, I believe the AlgaeCal is what has made the big differences. Both hips are now osteopenia and I hope this year the spine will be too. It was borderline last year thanks to AlgaeCal.
Last year my latest challenge was being diagnosed pre-diabetic. I am skinny, have low cholesterol, low BP and I exercise. But I do have family history. After tons of research and adjusting my diet, which was already very good, I started trying various supplements to help.
I was losing weight due to restricting carbs and being vegetarian (1 piece of whole grain pizza instead of 3, no potatoes, etc) and was hungry all the time. I have found the magic supplement. It is called berberine. The product I am using is called Glyco-X 500 and is sold on Amazon. The 500 stands for mg and I have now ordered a 250 mg bottle as there are times my sugar is dropping lower than I’d like.
I have learned what foods I can eat a lot of, learned that you can exercise to drop the sugar 40 points in about 10 minutes and many other helpful things. But the berberine has changed my life. I’m back to 3 pieces of pizza. And the other day I actually had 1/2 a twice baked potato with sugar only going to 111 afterward. I am now taking 500 mg/day (starting is 1500) and I might be able to go lower.
Some people have gastrointestinal issues with berberine but I have had no side effects. I have heard that it works as well as Metformin. I will never be eating chocolate cake and pastries but I don’t want to. I make homemade honey vanilla ice cream and that works. One other resource that is useful is a snack bar called The Simply Bar. I get the cinnamon/pecan and because it is made with puffed soy instead of rice the glycemic index on it is low. The ingredients are basic too.
My two cents to others is if you are leaning toward a natural approach to a health issue don’t let a doctor scare you into something you don’t really want to do, like [medications]. Try the natural approach first and see if you can’t be healed in that way first.
I hope this helps other people. Sorry this is so long but I have a lot to say on this subject.
*You can see that Cindy has given her health a lot of thought which is what prompted us to give her a call after she sent her story in.
On the call she told us that in addition to the points above she rides her horse 6 times a week and tries to walk 2 miles 5 times a week. She also mentioned that she consumes dairy, eggs, beans, grains, tofu and soy. She doesn’t keep track of what she eats daily but she’s been eating more eggs and dairy this year and her cholesterol has actually gone down 9 points.
She also mentioned that the DEXA scans she had in 2013 were from the same machine and same technician so her bone density increase is accurate.
Sometimes it helps to hear from others experiencing the same things so hopefully this story served as a positive reminder that you can in fact overcome osteoporosis and other health issues, naturally.
Yes, it’s challenging, and yes, there is a lot to learn and do. But the message is clear: just like Cindy, you can tackle one thing at a time, and there are natural solutions out there you can count on.
2015 Update:
Good morning. My name is Cindy Casey and I live in Mariposa, California, and I wanted to share with you how I’m doing with the AlgaeCal products. I made a video after I’d been on them one year because I had good results, and now I’ve been on them three years and, again, I’m having real good results.
So my last DEXA scan, which was recently, showed that I don’t have any readings in osteoporosis at this time. They’re all osteopenia, which is really great. So I’ll give you my readings.
My left hip was, three years ago, -2.6, now it is -2.2. That’s a 7.4% improvement.
Right hip was -2.7, it’s now -2.4. That’s a 4.5% improvement.
And spine, which did the best, was -3.1, now is -2.2. That’s a 14.5% improvement.
So I’m real happy with this and I wanted to share that with other people who are considering these supplements. I also wanted to mention that I do wear a weighted vest when I walk, not in the summer so much because it’s rather hot in the summer, but other times of year. Because I’m a small person and that probably has some benefit.
And the last thing I wanted to mention is that my doctor wrote a prescription for Strontium, and I found out that I can use that with my husband’s flex plan. And what they told me is that I can use it one time. If it’s ongoing, I need to get a letter of medical necessity, and I’m sure she’ll write that. So that’s a way to save a little bit of money if you happen to have a flex plan.
So again, I wanted to say I recommend this product, and I hope it will work as well for you as it has for me. Thanks.

Jacqueline Tried Many Osteoporosis Treatments Before Finding AlgaeCal
Hi, my name is Jacqueline Smith. I’m from Cape Coral, Florida, and I’m coming onto my 78th birthday.
I have had bone density issues for 20 years now, and I have tried a variety of things from the usual medications that the doctors give you that caused me to be ill.
And also, I’ve had a little bit of success with a dynamic motion machine that I’ve used for quite some time now and continue to use it.
Two years ago, I saw AlgaeCal being talked about on television. And the results sounded really good, and I felt that I wanted to try it. I would have liked to have had a DEXA within a year of taking AlgaeCal, but my insurance claim wouldn’t allow that. And I just did get it after two years using AlgaeCal, and I’m really happy to report that there are some positive results here.
As it’s been in the 20 years until I used Juven, it was on a downhill slide. So then gradually, it got a little better, but it was so slow. And this actually in two years has had a better gain than I’ve shown in all of the 20 years.
So I just wanted to report the findings on this. My femoral neck went from 3.6 to 3.1. That’s a minus, by the way, unfortunately. And the lumbar spine really worked out really good, because I had minus 2.4, and it went to minus 1.5. These are really much lower than I was 20 years ago too, but there’s no sense getting into those numbers. You’re mostly interested in since I’ve taken the AlgaeCal.
The left hip did not turn out quite as positive. Actually, there was a loss in it for the first time in a long time. And it went from minus 2.0 to minus 2.7. I’m not really sure why, and I’m gonna question this, talk to the doctor about it. But I just really felt that it was time to give a testimonial, since I’m excited on the gains, and I think people need to know this from real people, not the people they see on television who are, you know, they’re kind of pushing the product. So that’s my take on it. It was good for me, AlgaeCal, and it’s good for AlgaeCal as to these results that I got. And it’s good for everybody who uses it, I think, who has bone issues.
So thank you for allowing me to give this testimonial, because I hope it will be helpful. And thank you again. And AlgaeCal all the way for me. Thank you.

“I Already Had My Genes Working Against Me. I Was Determined Not To Be a Statistic.”
My name is Sandy Ham and I have an AlgaeCal success story to tell.
My mother had severe osteoporosis in her 40’s and currently both of my older sisters have it. Since I already had my genes working against me, I was determined not to be a statistic and in my mid-20s I made significant health changes:
I became a vegetarian
began taking calcium supplements
and exercising
Well unfortunately my first DEXA scan at the age of 50 revealed that I already had osteopenia so I was even more determined to prevent further bone loss. I began seeing some holistic health professionals and after 3 years, my bone density continued to decrease.
In July of 2013, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism/Hashimoto Disease. I consulted a holistic professional but eventually it was determined that I needed to begin taking thyroid medication, T4 The medication significantly improved my symptoms but I was concerned about how it might affect my bone density.
I had a DEXA scan in February 2014, a little over a year since my last one, and unfortunately it now revealed that I had osteoporosis in my right femur and spine with significant osteoporosis in my left femur, a decrease in my T-score from -2.0 to a -4.0. I was familiar with the Algaecal program from their website but was hesitant to try it because of the cost. However, after trying so many other options, and not wanting to go on medication, I figured what have I got to lose except about $300 if it didn’t work, but I could gain back my bone health if it did work. So I decided to take the risk and ordered my first 6 month supply.
I began taking Algaecal Plus and Strontium Boost in February of 2014 and had a DEXA scan in August of 2014. My scan revealed that I no longer had osteoporosis in my femurs and was only border line in my spine, with the most significant change being in my left femur which had gone from a T-score of -4.0 to -2.2 in just 6 months on the Algaecal Program!!! And this happened during the same time that I was also taking thyroid medication!!! I am such a believer in the Algaecal Program and I plan to stay on it for the rest of my life!

Bill Increased His Bone Density In Just 6 Months! Even His Dr. Was Surprised
What attracted me to AlgaeCal is it’s organic and plant-based. So I decided I’d try it- the 6 month program with the Strontium Boost to see if I could improve my bone density.
After 6 months I had another DEXA scan done and the results were very interesting again. This time I had significant improvement in all my T scores!
What was most important to me was my left hip that went from a -1.70 to a -1.60. That was an increase in bone density of 2.6% which is very significant. It took me out of the range of osteoporosis and into what is considered just mild bone loss.
The technician who was giving the DEXA scan for a second time was also very interested also because she had been taking a calcium supplement with the Strontium Boost, a different product and she told me “I’ve never seen anybody improve their bone density in 6 months or less. She said “I’m going to be looking forward to seeing your results in the morning”. I think she was also probably pleasantly surprised.
The reason I’m sharing my experience with you is that I hope, if you suffer from bone loss, like myself, it’ll help you make a more informed decision and perhaps take a more natural approach to a challenge that appears to a part of the natural aging process. Thank you.
Share this experience:
