Calcium is the body’s structural bricklayer—most of your skeleton is built from it, and your nerves and muscles use it as a signaling spark. When diet falls short, supplements can help maintain bone, and in specific situations (like pregnancy with low calcium intake) they can meaningfully improve outcomes. Think of it as a building material that matters most when supplies are low or demands are high.

• Support and maintain bone density over time
• Reduce fracture risk when combined with vitamin D in older adults
• Ease premenstrual (PMS) symptoms like mood changes, water retention, and pain
• Lower the risk of preeclampsia/gestational hypertension in pregnancy when baseline calcium intake is low

Algae and seaweeds are ocean- and pond-grown biofactories that make omega‑3s, antioxidant carotenoids, and unique polysaccharides. Think of them as compact nutrient modules: some help lower blood fats, others gently nudge metabolism, and some protect skin from sun and aging stress. Which benefits you get depends on the specific algae used (e.g., algal DHA oil, fucoxanthin-rich brown seaweed, or astaxanthin microalgae).

• Lower high triglycerides (with algal DHA oil)
• Support weight management and waist size (fucoxanthin/brown seaweed extracts)
• Improve insulin sensitivity in metabolic syndrome (fucoxanthin)
• Support skin photoaging and elasticity (astaxanthin from Haematococcus)
