Coral calcium products have great health benefits for your bodies, but does the harvesting of them harm the coral reefs that produces this nutrient packed powder? The answer is that it actually helps the reefs – read on to find out just how your coral calcium is harvested.
Where we get coral calcium
Indonesia is the source of our coral calcium. This mineral can be obtained either from the land or from the ocean’s floor at the foot of the coral reefs.
Indonesia’s islands have a volcanic origin. Frequently, coral reefs associated with underwater volcanoes like these will grow sideways. They do this to cover pits which the volcanoes produced in the seabed. Removing marine coral calcium droppings which pile up around the reefs clears a pathway for expansion and new reef growth.
The coral reefs have edges that drop off making coral sand which is used for the coral calcium products we consume. It takes a long time to make the calcium and the pieces accumulate over a period of years. The natural movement of the waves contribute to the making of the reef. The waves help break off the pieces of the coral reef as do the fish that nibble on the reef. This sediment falls to the ocean floor making coral sand.
No damage is done to the living coral reef during this harvesting. They’re actually revived and brought back to life. The dredges that are used to gather marine coral by lightly suctioning the sand are known as suction dredges. The coral is actually harvested three or four miles away form the nearest reef.
The effect of coral calcium
Coral calcium products are healthy for our bodies and also for the coral reefs. Unlike many products which are harmful to the environment, this is one renewable resource where the harvesting actually helps the source it comes from.
People all over the world are raving about the health benefits of coral calcium, but just what is this strange alternative medicine? Here are some things about marine coral calcium you might want to know.
Marine coral calcium is a natural substance that actually comes from coral reefs. It is the broken off pieces that are pulverized to sand and it is very rich in over 70 trace minerals.
Calcium and magnesium are the big compounds that make up the main characteristics of both organic and inorganic marine coral. Marine coral has no taste or smell, and will dissolve in water, but the actual dissolving takes quite a while. It will take one hour to dissolve approximately 1% of the coral, but if marine coral calcium is ingested in capsule form, it will dissolve in your stomach within minutes, thus giving you the full benefits of all the minerals as opposed to a small percentage you would get from the water.
Among the health benefits of coral calcium is the fact that it can adjust the acidity or alkalinity of your water. While most people can‘t really take advantage of this on a day to day basis, if you can add it to your homes water supply it could be very beneficial. Additional benefits of adding marine coral calcium include removal of residual chlorine and reduction in bacterial growth as well as other impurities.
The health benefits of coral calcium are many, including:
- The ratio of calcium, magnesium and trace minerals in it is in natural proportion to the human body.
- It is readily absorbed by the body.
- It can balance your bodies PH level (which helps fight disease, especially cancer)
- It cleanses the kidney, intestines and liver.
- It boosts your immune system
