Questions & Answers>
Strontium is a mineral found below Calcium on the Periodic Table of Elements. It is a naturally occurring element and is found along with calcium in foods. Research has long suggested that Strontium may be an essential nutrient required for the normal development, structure, function, and health of the skeletal system. This is logical since trace amounts of strontium are found within the human skeleton. Strontium has an affinity for bone and is taken up at the bone matrix crystal surface. Clinical trials going back into the 1940s have supported this conclusion, and recent studies have provided evidence that it can offer unique nutritional support for the skeletal system- positively affecting bone metabolism leading to normalized bone density.*
Eniva Strontium (symbol "Sr") is a mineral found right below Calcium on the Periodic Table of Elements. Research has long suggested Strontium may be an essential nutrient required for the normal development, structure, function and health of the skeletal system.* As well, Strontium is a mineral with alkaline properties.
Minerals for Life® strontium is a liquid dietary supplement of the mineral Strontium
in aqueous solution as an advanced proprietary molecular delivery system.
The purer the water the more efficiently minerals are activated into their electrically charged ionic state. Eniva® uses OHM® water (multi-step purified water) in a unique proprietary process at Eniva's government-inspected manufacturing facility, yielding a bio-available form of Strontium ions (Solutomic®) in sparkling clear solution for quicker absorption than tablets or capsules which must first dissolve in the digestive system before being absorbed.
