Some medications and supplements require separation from AlgaeCal to limit any potential interactions. For example, thyroid medication, antacids, and certain antibiotics should be taken at least 4 hours from AlgaeCal. Iron supplements also should be separated correctly.
If you take a standalone iron supplement, please take it 2 hours from AlgaeCal to avoid decreased absorption. If your iron comes from a multivitamin, you do not need to separate it from AlgaeCal.
What's Inside?
Calcium 750 mg
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
AlgaeCal is a unique calcium that contains all 13 essential bone-building minerals. Studies show these plant-based nutrients can stop bone loss – and even increase your bone density.
Magnesium 65mg
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
If you want better bones, then you need more magnesium. Clinical studies show people with healthy magnesium levels have better bone density than their magnesium-deficient counterparts.
Vitamin D3 25mcg (1000 IU)
(As Cholecalciferol)
(As Cholecalciferol)
Vitamin D is vital for your bone health. Without this essential nutrient, your body can’t absorb calcium, and that’s bad news for your bones. But don’t worry – every serving of AlgaeCal Plus has a generous 1,000 IU of this bone-building vitamin.
Potassium Trace

(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
By helping to neutralize the acidic pH resulting from the Standard American Diet, potassium prevents the loss of calcium from bone to restore a more alkaline pH, thus conserving calcium within our bones and reducing its loss in urine.
Boron Trace
(as Boron Glycinate)
(as Boron Glycinate)
This essential nutrient helps your bones get the calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D they need to stay healthy and strong. It also helps your body make collagen, the main protein that holds your bone together.
Copper Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
Copper is essential in bone metabolism, activating enzymes like lysyl oxidase that incorporate both collagen and elastin into the organic component of bone.
Manganese Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
Manganese is critical in the formation of the extracellular matrix–the ground substance to which collagen adheres, and for the development of chondrocytes, the cells that secrete cartilage and become bone building- osteoblasts and eventually osteocytes, which regulate the entire bone renewal process. Without manganese, bone mineralization simply cannot start!
Silicon Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
Silicon plays a key role in bone formation by stimulating the production of bone-building osteoblasts and the synthesis of type 1 collagen, and by increasing calcium’s incorporation into bone.
Nickel Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
Nickel can affect the distribution of other nutrients in your body, including calcium. Given the obvious benefit calcium has on our bones, you can see why an adequate level of nickel is critical to maintaining healthy bone!
Phosphorus Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
Approximately 85% of the body’s phosphorus is found in your bones. It’s fundamental to growth, maintenance, and is necessary along with calcium and magnesium for proper growth and formation of bones.
Selenium Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
Selenium is the required cofactor for two groups of enzymes intimately tied to bone health: the selenoenzymes, which neutralize bone-destructive free radicals and the deiodinase enzymes, which are necessary for the healthy thyroid function that keeps our bone renewal metabolism running. For these reasons, low selenium can mean decreased bone mineral density.
Strontium Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
This essential nutrient helps your bones get the calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D they need to stay healthy and strong. It also helps your body make collagen, the main protein that holds your bone together.
Vanadium Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
In one study, vanadium compounds were shown to increase bone formation without any adverse health effects!
Zinc Trace
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
(As AlgaeCal® Mesophyllum Superpositum)
Zinc is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in bone metabolism by acting as a cofactor for specific enzymes. But that’s not all - studies have found that zinc can also help prevent bone loss, making it a vital nutrient for both men and women, especially those in their post-menopausal years.
