Coral Calcium with Magnesium
We found the best source with 72 naturally occurring ionic minerals. New Sun is pleased to offer Coral Calcium Plus, a natural complex of calcium and trace minerals derived from fossilized stony coral. New Suns Coral Calcium Plus is a high quality dietary supplement more affordably priced than other coral calcium supplements of comparable quality. Calcium is extremely important for your health but ironically, is one of the hardest nutrients for your body to absorb. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body and is involved in numerous bodily functions. Its absorption, however, is dependent on a number of factors. New Suns Coral Calcium Plus contains added magnesium as well as other minerals that have been shown to enhance absorption. Coral calcium also helps to balance pH, or the acid-base balance. A healthy body maintains a neutral pH range. Lower pH induces a state called acidosis: higher pH induces alkalosis. Either state can compromise good health, so Coral Calcium is an important factor in maintaining neutral body pH and therefore overall health.
Why Calcium form coral? There are two reasons. . . One is the coral itself. Most coral is actually a colony of invertebrate animals that reside in stony, protective exoskeletons. Over time, this colony grows over the rocklike accumulation of calcareous (calcium-containing) exoskeletons from dead coral. These exoskeletons contain almost every trace mineral found in the human body, including calcium. The second reason is seawater. Due to its proximity to the earths crust and underwater volcanic eruptions, seawater is very high in minerals. Its mineral composition is very similar to that of most plants and animals on earth. Fossilized coral has soaked in seawater for years and has partially absorbed its mineral content. As the seas have receded over time, fossilized coral has been left above water, rich in minerals and readily available for harvesting without causing damage to living reefs.
Why only fossilized coral? Coral reefs are very delicate underwater ecosystem. Harvesting coral exoskeletons directly from living reefs is extremely damaging to the reef and the surrounding marine life that depends on the coral for food and shelter. Another method is dredging or vacuuming the sand around a reef to obtain dead coral and coral fragments but this method robs coral reefs of the raw materials they need to grow. Like other suppliers, New Suns Coral Calcium Plus is imported from Okinawa, where the Japanese government strictly regulates the mining of coral, allowing only fossilized coral from above sea level to be mined, thereby protecting existing coral reefs.
