Nature’s Calcium is one of the best calcium products that we sell in Organico. Nature’s Calcium is made from a seaweed that grows off our coast (it is purified, before you ask) and it provide a uniquely pure source of calcium. Because it is of plant (seaweed) rather than mineral origin, it is a much more suitable source of calcuim for the human body. Many calcium supplements contain the cheapest and most difficult to absorb calcium – calcium carbonate – chalk, in other wards – which has a very low absorbtion rate. Indeed, depending on a person’s constitution, there is evidence that calcium carbonate can cause kidney stones. Taking a seaweed based calcium, on the other hand, provides us with calcium in aq form our body is familiar with, and also gives us a rich array of other minerals such as magnesium, boron, zinc and iron, all essential for bone health and for the proper abaorption of calcium.
When they were patenting Nature’s Calcium, the company that makes it (located in Cork!) showed evidence that the supplement not only aids the prevention and treatment of Osteoporosis (under medical supervision for treatment, of course) but also could help to create an alkaline environment in the body which could help rheumatoid arthritis and other auto-immune conditions. These seaweeds, they say, have ‘unusual therapeutic properties including treatment of conditions created by failure of immune regulation, for example rheumatoid or osteo arthritis, osteoporosis and other conditions involving pH control’.
Aquacal Nature’s Calcium is available from Organico for €15 for 1 month’s supply. If you are not able to call in to Organico, you might like to purchase 3 month’s worth at a time and we can send them to you (p & P will be about €4.50 and going up to €7 depending on the weight). We do not yet have online ordering so you would have to call us. As the €7 postage covers one kg of weight it might be better to order different things to apread the cost. These rates are for within the Rep of Ireland using standard post. For overseas we would need to check current rates.
