Algae-Sourced Calcium provides high levels of key ingredients that support or contribute to the maintenance of normal bones – calcium, magnesium and vitamin D. The algae that is used to derive the calcium is known as Algas Calcareas and studies have found that algae-derived calcium is a more ‘bone-friendly’ form of calcium as it is easily absorbed by the body and better tolerated than other calcium forms. As it is derived from the sea it naturally contains full spectrum support with a wide range of trace minerals that help support normal bones.
As well as being organic and sustainably sourced, Algae-Sourced Calcium is a lot easier to take compared to traditional calcium tablets that are often large, chalky tablets that have to be chewed.
Clinical studies have shown that this natural form of algae-sourced calcium increases ALP activity – a marker of bone growth – more effectively than calcium carbonate and calcium citrate. The vitamin D3 that is also present in Algae-Sourced Calcium is the body’s preferred form as it is the same form we naturally produce in response to sunlight so is easier for the body to absorb than vitamin D2.
