 Future
Bodies' Coral Calcium supplement is formulated from 100% marine bed coral
calcium - it is a natural source of calcium with 73 other essential minerals
and nutrients necessary for good health!Coral
Calcium is a mineral derived from sea coral. Sea coral is the hard shell
formation made up of the skeletons left behind by small sea life. When this
sea life consumes it's food, it uses the minerals in the food to deposit
into their skeletons. These animals have external skeletons that protect
them from the outside which we commonly call shells. As the animals die,
their shells stay behind and together form what we call coral found in the
salt water oceans throughout the world.

Calcium contains every mineral, in similar proportion, found in the human
body. This is vitally important because some trace minerals are entirely
missing from our food and supplements, yet these minerals occur in the human
body for a reason. The human body functions synergistically: the whole is
greater than the sum of its parts. Every mineral has a crucial role to play
in the human anatomy.
Calcium is an essential mineral used for building bones, muscle
contraction, blood clotting and maintenance of cell membranes.
The US RDA (recommended daily allowance) for calcium is 1000 mg per day
for adults and children over 4 years of age. In 1997, this figure was altered
based upon age to 1200 mg per day for individuals older than 50. Based upon
USDA surveys, most Americans are calcium deficient in their diets. Our fast
paced lifestyle leaves most of us lacking in good diet and exercise
routines.
Calcium is one of
the more difficult elements for the body to digest and absorb and vitamin D
is essential to calcium uptake. For example, calcium lactate - from dairy
products, only yields about 30% absorbable calcium. Calcium carbonate only
yields about 5% absorbable calcium - milk and antacids aren't the great
source of calcium they are claimed to be!
Marine
bed coral calcium is ionic calcium (Ca ++) and is the only physiologically
active form of this element. This means the body doesn't have to convert the
source into calcium. Our coral calcium is fortified with vitamin D,
magnesium and 73 other essential minerals derived from the coral providing
for nearly 100% absorbable calcium!
Your
bones - while considered your bodies structural support - are also a calcium
bank. When your diet doesn't provide sufficient calcium, a withdrawal of
calcium is then made from the bones. Most Americans' diets are not only
calcium deficient but consist of poor nutrition or counterproductive
substances, such as carbonated soft drinks (high in phosphorus) which
depress solubility of calcium. As a result the problem is compounded - an
acidic cellular pH results and the body becomes a bed for disease and
pathogens. Coral calcium, with it's nearly 100% absorption rate, is the
calcium supplement you need for good health! |
