Cytoplan Organic Wholefood Calcium is a natural seaweed product harvested under an exclusive license from the cool, clean and pristine waters off Iceland’s south-west coast. This is an area untouched by international shipping and industry. Where the warm waters of the gulf-stream meet the cold clean waters of the Arctic, the perfect conditions exist for deposits of Lithothamnion to build up.

Key features:

• An organic, wholefood supplement
• Provides 200mg of elemental organic calcium per capsule
• Calcified seaweed has a porous and hydrolysed surface area which helps it be very soluble within the hydrochloric acid of the stomach, allowing good uptake. Calcium carbonate conversely is not soluble
• Contains no additives
• Our Wholefood Calcium is certified organic by the Soil Association
• Suitable for adults and children (aged 4 years and above)
• Suitable for vegetarians and vegans

The benefits of Calcium

Calcium contributes to normal:

• muscle function
• neurotransmission
• blood clotting
• energy-yielding metabolism
• digestive enzyme function

Calcium also contributes to:

• the maintenance of normal bones and teeth
• the process of cell division and specialisation
• the normal growth and development of bone in children
• the reduction in the loss of bone mineral in post-menopausal women. Low bone mineral density is a risk factor for osteoporotic bone fractures
