New Formula of AlgaeCal Plant Source Calcium Supplement Released

August 23, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Las Vegas Nevada - PR Leap - August 23, 2007 – AlgaeCal International, today announced the release of the 2nd version of its AlgaeCal Plus calcium supplement formula. AlgaeCal Plus is a natural plant source calcium and mineral supplement derived from a unique South American marine algae, and then enhanced with proven bone building nutrients.

AlgaeCal Plus was introduced as a natural alternative to a calcium market that is dominated by calcium carbonate (limestone) and laboratory made calcium forms. AlgaeCal International C.E.O. Dean Neuls says “not only is AlgaeCal the world’s only pure plant source of calcium, but just as important it is a full complex of naturally occurring bone building ingredients. This is what really separates AlgaeCal Plus from all of the other calcium supplements on the market.”

AlgaeCal Plus is the cornerstone of the AlgaeCal Bone Health Program, a 400 person clinical trial that is successfully increasing bone mineral density in post menopausal women. Neuls says “After seeing the effectiveness of the original AlgaeCal Plus in our bone health program and examining all of the latest scientific literature we decided to add to our formula and continue creating what we believe to be, the ultimate bone health product.”

The differences between the original AlgaeCal Plus and the new version 2 formula include:

• twice the amount of vitamin D3
• increased vitamin K2 as MK7
• increased magnesium (magnesium carbonate)
• includes Boron (FruiteX B® OsteoBoron™)
• added vitamin C (calcium ascorbate)
• now available in vegetable capsules

“AlgaeCal Plus already had higher amounts of vitamin D3 than most calcium supplement formulas, but after seeing all of the recent studies showing the benefit of increased vitamin D intake we felt the need to boost the amount of vitamin D3 in the new formula” says Neuls, adding “our plant source calcium and mineral complex naturally contains boron but we wanted to include additional boron so we have added FruiteX-B® OsteoBoron™, a natural form of boron that has shown to be more effective than boron citrate, that is used in many other bone health supplements.”
