Strontium is a chemical element with the symbol Sr and the atomic number 38. The first large scale application of strontium was in the production of sugar from sugar beet. The human body absorbs strontium as if it were calcium. [Wikipedia]. Strontium is found in many foods, some of which are cucumber, parsnip, allspice, and apple. Strontium presents a health problem since it substitutes for calcium in bone, preventing expulsion from the body. Physiologically, it exists as an ion in the body.
