Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body with 99% of it found in the bones and teeth. It provides strength and density to bones and teeth. Calcium is also needed for normal communication among nerve cells, blood clotting, and muscle contraction.Calcium is especially essential for growing children, women, expectant mothers and the elderly.

The calcium and other minerals in this seaweed are highly bioavailable because of the porous, honeycomb-like structure of the minerals. They present a very large surface area to allow easier solubilisation, increased reactive surfaces and hence better absorption of the minerals by our body.
