The calcium contained in Lithothamnion algae occurs in an organic form, which ensures that it is better absorbed in the gut compared to inorganic forms of calcium such as the commonly sold calcium carbonate.In addition, calcium from algae naturally contains other minerals that support bone health and other bodily functions.Minerals, including calcium, can be contaminated with heavy metals, but our supplements are guaranteed to be even lower than the legal limits for heavy metal content. It is therefore a so-called heavy metal safe supplement.
Why is calcium combined with vitamins D3 and K2?

Calcium supplementation may be suitable for people who have difficulty getting enough calcium from their normal diet, i.e. especially people who do not consume dairy products. People with an increased need for this mineral may also benefit from calcium supplementation. These may include, for example, older individuals, as the ability to absorb calcium from the diet decreases with age, vegans, or pregnant and breastfeeding women with an unbalanced diet.

Vitamins D3 and K2 are involved in the metabolism of calcium and together form a powerful combination that supports bone and cardiovascular health in particular. Vitamin D3 is essential for optimal absorption of calcium from the digestive tract. Without sufficient vitamin D3, the body cannot absorb calcium effectively. Vitamin D also supports normal muscle function and helps maintain a healthy immune system. Vitamin K2 in its most bioavailable form MK-7 regulates calcium deposition - activating the protein osteocalcin, which helps bind calcium to teeth and bones, and Matrix GLA (MGP) protein, which inhibits calcium deposition in blood vessels and soft tissues. As a result, the supplement also helps maintain a healthy cardiovascular system.
