Product Spotlight Coral Calcium

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 rock-like accumulation of calcareous (calcium-containing)exoskeletons from dead coral. These exoskeletons contain almost every trace mineral found in the human body, including calcium. The other reason is seawater. Because of its proximity to the erath's crust and underwater volcanic eruptions, seawater is very high in minerals, and its mineral composition is similar to that of most plants and animals on earth. Fossilized coral has soaked in searwater 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.
