Promotes healthy bones and teeth and reduces the risk of osteoporosis: Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body. The average adult is made up of 2% calcium, of which 99% is stored in the teeth and bones. The need for calcium increases with age and requires constant replenishment. As the body ages, it becomes less efficient at absorbing calcium from the diet. A highly absorbable type of calcium, Coral Calcium, is formed when a small sea animal ingests the ionic ocean minerals and then secretes them into a coral formation. This natural balance of 74 organic coral minerals (very similar to that found in the human skeleton) is harvested from above sea level fossilized coral deposits in Okinawa, Japan – home to the longest-lived people on earth. It is free from ocean pollutants and its above sea level harvesting does not harm living coral. Alive Brand Coral Calcium contains every mineral, in similar proportion, found in the human body. It is naturally ionized (nature’s smallest form, 1000 times smaller than colloidal) and its ability to become ionic on contact with moisture, makes Coral Calcium one of the most absorbable forms of calcium. The Alive Brand is especially formulated with added Magnesium Citrate, Vitamin D and HCL for optimal assimilation.
Aids in maintaining proper muscle function: Minerals comprise the primary building blocks of the body. They are responsible for energy production (helping the body metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins), muscle function, nerve transmission, bone formation, tooth development, cellular maintenance and more.
Promotes the body’s alkaline balance: Through mineral intake, Coral Calcium helps the body regain its natural alkaline balance. An alkaline environment resists disease and is believed to be a major factor in tissue health, aging and immune strength.
Fights heart disease and stroke: Mineral deficiency results in acidity which causes arterial wall breakdown. The body attempts to repair the arterial damage with fibrin and collagen and these attract calcium. The bonded patch, plaque, gradually builds up, leading to hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis). Severe calcium deficiency causes the calcium regulatory system to react by depositing calcium in joints and tissues, leading to arthritis and fibromyalgia. Coral calcium combats both mineral and calcium deficiency.
