Two Important Observations from the above data:

* Brazil Fresh Harvest Coral has approximately 12 times more minerals than Okinawan varieties while maintaining a similar calcium level.

* Brazil Coral offers higher magnesium naturally

The infomercial is wrong!

The popular TV infomercial makes it seem like the calcium in coral is responsible for its extraordinary health benefits over traditional calcium supplements. In our opinion Calcium's importance in coral has been overstated and that the major benefits of coral derives from the complete mineral balance found in corals compared to single element calcium supplements. A good body of science shows Calcium is more effective when taken with other minerals so as to provide a mineral balance (Heaney, Becker, and Weaver, 1990; Huliz, 1990; Beal and Scofield, 1995; Harvey, 1988).

We believe that it is the magnesium and 73 other minerals working with the calcium which is responsible for the extraordinary results more than the bio-availability of calcium in coral. After all, there are several calcium formulas today that boast high absorption rates, yet have not resulted in better results on human bone.

Okinawan coral calcium has more minerals than regular calcium supplements, so it has better results than Calcium Carbonate and Calcium Citrate supplements. Brazil coral has more minerals than Okinawan coral with a further improvement in balance with respect to calcium and even better results.

Brazilian Coral has more minerals than Okinawa Coral Calcium image

Every mineral is dependent on another to work. An excess of one mineral inhibits the chemical activity of the opposing mineral. This "mineral interference" is critical to bringing about chemical balance in the cell. Brazil Fresh Harvest Coral has all the minerals and elements in the human body in proportionate amounts.

That is why Brazilian Coral is better than Okinawa Coral Calcium
