Calcium is the most used mineral in the body. Its an active electrolyte, an acid/alkaline buffer, a digestive aid, sleep aid and necessary for heart health, brain health, and bone health among so many other things. Calcium is necessary to keep us alive and maintain good health. The U.S. Surgeon General reported in 2004, American bone health is in jeopardy and issued a "call to action" to develop and incorporate a plan to combat the nations calcium deficiencies. Research also, strongly suggests, the kind of calcium we take is just as important as the amount of calcium we need. So, what is the right form of calcium and how much do we need?
Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for men and women ages 19-50 requires a minimum of 1,000 mg of assumable calcium, daily. However, the recommended upper limit is 2,500 mg daily for therapeutic levels or for those who need more.

HoneyCombs Industries uses an algae rich in calcium in a product called Calcom. Most calcium supplements on the market today are sourced from rocks like limestone, corral, or marble deposits. You may also, find synthetic calcium compounded in supplements made in laboratories. These calcium forms can be very confusing for the body and may be harsh during assimilation. Studies published by the British Medical Journals involving thousands of participants suggested these harsh non food calcium's in large quantities can leave calcifying mineral deposits and can clog arteries increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke. Algae calcium is a food source the body fully understands and can easily assimilate and used by the body. According to studies, algae calcium had a 4 fold (400%) assimilation and calcium usability compared to calcium carbonate and calcium citrate supplements it was compared against. HoneyCombs Calcom (algae calcium) is formulated with other calcium rich foods such as oat straw and and kale to compliment easy assimilation and calcium usability without the harsh effects of rock calcium.

Calcium is a mineral that cannot be replaced with anything else. The body cannot replace calcium with a drug or other nutrient. If the body does not get calcium for all its necessary chemistries it starts steeling calcium from calcium rich tissue to maintain homeostasis. Over time calcium deficiencies set in and deprive the body of health and function. Don't wait to be another calcium deficient victim warned by the American Surgeon General. Start a calcium regimen today and maintain great health. You cant live without it.
