    FAQ

    What are Coral Minerals?

    A small sea animal creates coral by ingesting ionic ocean minerals and secreting them into a coral formation, eventually producing a coral reef. This natural balance of 74 organic coral minerals are harvested from above sea coral deposits and crushed into an ultra-fine powder. The natural balance of all 74 minerals is important because each mineral requires other minerals to perform their numerous functions.

    What makes coral minerals so absorbable is their natural ability to become ionic upon contact with moisture. This natural ability to ionize, combined with the full spectrum of trace minerals present, makes coral a desirable form of calcium.

    How do Coral Minerals work?

    Minerals are the basic foundation for health. From our bones to the multitude of enzymatic activities within and outside our cells, minerals are the keys that open the door to optimum health. This is accomplished by supplying the body with the necessary minerals that have crucial roles to play in good health. The calcium and other naturally occurring minerals in coral support the delicate pH balance of body fluids and tissues. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, making up 1.5-2% of its total weight. Coral Calcium contains mostly calcium carbonate, though the presence of other trace minerals is important to the action of this mineral supplement.

    Coral Calcium is often used to increase the alkalinity of the blood and fluids when it gets too low. Low blood pH, often called chronic acidosis, is implicated in bone thinning and other nutritionally-related disfunctions.

    Many people in our society are mineral deficient because the soils have become depleted through unsustainable farming practices. When the minerals are supplied in an absorbable form, health can improve. Coral contains trace amounts of every mineral needed by the body and is known for their synergism. Orthopedic surgeons use pieces of coral for bone grafts because the bone and tendons readily accept the coral.

    Is NOW's Coral Calcium tested for heavy metals and radioactive elements?

    Yes. Coral Calcium is tested for lead at a level below the standards for
