What form of calcium does this contain?
Our formula provides calcium from eggshell (a natural form of calcium carbonate) and Aquamin® F (marine-derived minerals from red algae).
Why does this formula contain eggshell calcium specifically?
Eggshell calcium is a whole food form of calcium carbonate that also contains small amounts of other naturally occurring minerals. Unlike refined calcium salts that typically come from limestone or chalk, our calcium comes from a recognizable food source.
Why does this formula contain horseradish tree leaf?
Horseradish tree leaf is included as a natural source of plant-based phytonutrients, magnesium and trace minerals which are all nutrients commonly found in calcium-rich whole foods.
Is this formula suitable for those avoiding dairy?
Yes. This formula provides calcium from eggshell and marine algae, making it a food-based option for those who limit or avoid dairy in their diet.
How does this formula differ from typical calcium supplements?
Most calcium supplements contain isolated calcium salts derived from limestone or industrially processed mineral compounds. Our formula combines calcium from whole food sources (eggshell and marine minerals) with additional nutrients naturally present in those sources. This keeps our formula as close to nature as possible and supports the body's normal handling of nutrients*.
What testing does each batch undergo?
Every batch is tested for potency, ingredient identity, microbial safety (including Salmonella, E. coli, and Staph), and heavy metals (Mercury, Lead, Arsenic, and Cadmium) at an FDA-registered, cGMP-certified facility. Certificates of Analysis are available upon request.
