Yes just searched it and found: While natural strontium (which is mostly the isotope strontium-88) is stable, the synthetic strontium-90 is radioactive and is one of the most dangerous components of nuclear fallout, as strontium is absorbed by the body in a similar manner to calcium. Natural stable strontium is not hazardous to health at low levels. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strontium I guess I didn't realize that strontium had a stable naturally-occuring isotope. |

I include bismuth as stable even though technically it is radioactive with an extraordinarily long half life.
