Algae Cal Plus 120 Capsules

This is the only Calcium product Dr. Thompson currently recommends. The reason is because it also contains trace minerals, approximately 15%. Some people (about 5-10% of the population) need calcium as determined by a reliable HTMA.  Dr. Thompson believes calcium should never be taken without first determining the need (this should not be taken for osteoporosis, which is loss of minerals, not just calcium, unless calcium deficiency is first determined by HTMA). In general, it is very easy to correct calcium levels. It is very difficult to correct too much calcium (90% of the population of the world has too much calcium). Follow up HTMA should be obtained at least yearly when taking any calcium product. 

AlgaeCal supplies all 13 essential bone supporting minerals; calcium, magnesium, boron, copper, manganese, silicon, nickel, selenium, strontium, phosphorus, potassium, vanadium, and zinc. Plus, clinical doses of vitamin D3, vitamin K2, boron, and additional magnesium have been added to the algae powder to make AlgaeCal Plus your complete, multi-nutrient approach to bone building.

AlgaeCal wild-harvested, plant-sourced calcium is derived from a South American marine algae called Lithothamnion superpositum (or Algas Calcareas as the locals call it). The entire kiwi-fruit size algae ball is hand harvested, sun dried, then milled into a powder. There is no extraction process or additives used – just pure whole food.

Pre-Digested Calcium is Body-friendly

The AlgaeCal plant draws calcium and the 12 other essential bone supporting minerals from seawater and pre-digests them for you, much like a carrot or potato root breaks down the in-edible rock minerals in soil converting them into a useable form your body recognizes as food. Most traditional calcium supplements are made from pulverized limestone or marble.

AlgaeCal plant-digested calcium is so body-friendly that it dissolves in 30 minutes using USP standard tests simulating stomach conditions proving it is very bio-accessible.

The “Plus” in AlgaeCal Plus

AlgaeCal is more than a plant-source, whole-food calcium supplement. It’s a multi-nutrient approach to your bone health that includes full, clinically supported doses of:

Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2

These two fat soluble vitamins work synergistically to support calcium absorption and distribution to your bones.

Magnesium

The Western diet tends to be magnesium deficient, so to make up for this shortfall AlgaeCal Plus provides you with the 2:1 calcium to magnesium ratio that is optimal for bone health.

Boron

Several studies show boron playing a crucial role in bone health at 3 mg per day, which is the exact amount added.

These additions make AlgaeCal Plus the most complete calcium supplement on the planet.

• AlgaeCal complex includes calcium, magnesium, boron, copper, manganese, silicon, nickel, selenium, strontium, phosphorus, potassium, vanadium, and zinc.
• Added: vitamin C, vitamin D3, vitamin K2-7, boron, and magnesium.
• Reduced daily calcium supplementation may be safer for soft tissue deposits and arterial calcification. AlgaeCal Plus contains only 720 mg of daily calcium compared to 1000-1200 mg in typical calcium supplements.
• Significantly contributes to the increase in bone mineral density of over 1% per year with no evidence of diminished efficacy over a 7-year study period.¹
• Significantly contributes to an increase in total body bone mineral density in contrast to studies suggesting traditional calcium supplements only slow down age-related decline.^1-3
• An excellent safety profile with no cardiovascular risk as measured by changes in blood lipids: increased HDL, no significant increase in LDL or TG, and greater reduction in serum glucose and CRP.
• Guaranteed to increase bone mineral density when used per protocol with Strontium Boost.⁴
• No concerns with heavy metals or microbial contaminants.
• Dissolves within 30 minutes per USP standard tests simulating stomach conditions.
• Non-GMO and free from gluten, wheat, dairy and soy.
• The AlgaeCal ingredient is USDA certified organic and certified kosher. AlgaeCal Plus, however, is not certified organic due to non-AlgaeCal ingredients such as capsules which cannot be certified organic.
• Allowable health claim per Health Canada: “In conjunction with Vitamin D (20 mcg) and a healthy diet, AlgaeCal helps to increase/improve bone mineral density (BMD) and improve/maintain bone health in women.”
