Ecology and Marine Coral Calcium

Our Marine Grade Coral Calcium is mined by an underwater vacuuming operation that collects the fresh droppings from the marine coral. It does NOT harm the living coral reef but cleans the reef and the immediate area which in turn enables the coral to thrive. Its collection can be compared to collecting dead leaves that have fallen from trees without harming the trees at all. This operation is closely monitored by the Japanese Government to insure that the living coral reefs are not harmed in any way. Damaging the coral reef in any way leads to criminal prosecution. The Coral that we use is harvested by Marine BioTech under the strict supervision of the Japanese Government. The Actual vacuum collection of coral sands takes place between one and two miles from the Okinawa reefs where the coral fragments broken off by wave action collect in ocean trenches.
