I've been using AlgaeCal for 9 months now and the results have been great. Seeing better results on my DexaScan and my bone mass / health is much better now. Goodbye osteoporosis!

“Algae Cal did not work for me.”

I've been taking Algae Cal for a few months as directed and also Strontium Boost. My recent bone density test came back worse than 2 years ago. It did not work for me. I can't justify spending hundreds more on these capsules. I'm seeing a Rheumatologist very soon.

When I read about AlgaeCal Plus, their advertisements said you would see 10% improvement in one year. I had been diagnosed with osteopenia. After one year I went in and took my bone density test and not only had I not improved, I had gone into osteoporosis. I was 75 when I started in excellent health. I would not recommend this product to anyone. C. J. San Diego, CA

It did not work at all for me and they said on their advertisement that it would show 10% improvement of bone density in one year. I went into osteoporosis from osteopenia. C. J. San Diego, CA

The cost is not cheap but I love the product so I will keep using it. One of the best calciums I have tried, and I like that it is natural from plants. I have had no side effects maybe because the product is better quality and supposedly made of algae.

Always ships very promptly which I am happy about. They even had a consultation with me which was very nice and they didn't rush me.

One of my parents has osteopenia and this company promises that one's DEXA scan numbers would improve after 6+ months on their product, or they will refund your money. After a year taking of taking the product as directed, the numbers improved only by 0.10 - 0.40% which the doctor stated was essentially unchanged (per the report, "statistically insignificant"). We sent the report to the company but they refused to refund our money.

Hello, thanks for reaching out!

Did you know that a small increase (actually, even a stabilized bone density scan) is wonderful news after the age of 40? At this age, we naturally begin to lose 1% of our bone density each year, sometimes more due to factors like menopause, prescription medications, genetics, etc. So, rest assured, a 0.4% increase is quite significant compared to a 1% loss! Now that your parent's bone loss is stabilized, the nutrients in AlgaeCal can really help to build up and strengthen their bones. We would love to discuss this with you further, and if this is something you are open to please do give us a call at 1-800-820-0184 and one of our Bone Health Consultants would be more than happy to help.

Lots of hype to draw you in, but the expensive product did not work for me.

AlgaeCal offers a plant based calcium supplement, verified to outperform those based on calcium carbonate and calcium citrate when it comes to DNA synthesis. Peer reviewed studies have confirmed that AlgaeCal formulations can greatly contribute to bone density increase, even in people who would otherwise likely suffer a steady decrease.
