Ahhhh finally, a true food based, completely natural magnesium supplement with the added bonus of calcium alongside.

There is a small but mighty movement away from conventional synthetically derived supplements and rightly so. Our body will always respond better to nature’s packaging of vitamins and minerals in a way that cannot be replicated by synthetics. This comes down to informed biology – meaning the nutrient is delivered in such a way that our body immediately recognizes it as a substance it has long known through the pathway of evolution.

There is also the natural entourage effect that food based supplements will always outperform synthetics on. Nature always provides the co-factors that allow for unimpeded absorption that an isolated synthetic derivative could never compete with.

Ocean’s Magnesium closest ‘form’ for those wanting a label is Ionic Magnesium Chloride given that it is derived from ocean veggies, baring in mind that it is food based and not synthetic.

The reason the minerals remain ionic, even in this powder form, is because of the drying process used – no heat treating or irradiating is used. The minerals are spray dried, which means to blow air through a giant tunnel. In this process, there still remains what are called the “waters of hydration” which is water retained within the crystal structure of the mineral. This is what allows the minerals to remain in ionic form.

Sea Minerals naturally contain chloride which allows the magnesium to be readily absorbed into cells in higher amounts, this is because chloride is used abundantly by the body as an electrolyte.

Other natural magnesium supplement brands on the market using marine sea water magnesium actually isolate the magnesium from the sea water using calcium hydroxide to form magnesium hydroxide. Foraged haven’t removed/isolated the magnesium from the sea water, nor have they added chloride to make it magnesium chloride, they have taken it exactly how it is found in nature’s sea water and dehydrated it in a way that allows all the minerals (magnesium, sodium, chloride, etc) to stay in their ionic form.

The Ocean’s Magnesium contains a powdered blend of pure sea minerals, sea lettuce and calcareous marine algae, providing a good source of both magnesium (382mg per serve) and calcium (320mg per serve) in convenient hard capsules for ease of use, carrying and traveling.

Our pure marine mineral powder offers an abundance of bio available natural magnesium, directly from one of the largest salt lakes in the world. It undergoes unique harvesting, concentrating methods and rigorous testing to ensure its quality and purity, free of any artificial ingredients and toxicants. Containing not only macro minerals such as magnesium, it also features the trace minerals found naturally in seawater – this powder is a true gift from nature.

When paired with sea lettuce and calcareous algae, the blend offers a higher trace mineral and calcium content than just the sea mineral powder alone. This particular sea lettuce contains more magnesium than most sea vegetables and has been harvested from organically certified areas, hand-plucked from rocks of the Atlantic Ocean. The marine algae, after years of thriving in the mineral-rich Atlantic sea, naturally calcifies on the North Atlantic seabed. From here it is sustainably harvested and carefully processed in order to maintain its mineral content, resulting in one of nature’s richest sources of calcium.
