Coral Calcium and PH Levels

The health benefits of coral calcium were discovered in 1979. It all started when a British journalist for the Guinness Book of World Records went to Okinawa, Japan to talk to the world’s oldest living human.

The man was 115 at the time and was very healthy as was the other residents of Okinawa. It was discovered that the water of Okinawa was the key to their longevity due to the fact that coral calcium was found in the in the water they were drinking.

It was not only the calcium in the water but also the mineral balance of the water.

Okinawa is formed by coral reefs built up over thousands of years and the rainwater filters down through the coral collecting minerals and other nutrients on its way. This water is not only alkaline with a pH of 8.6, but also resembles the natural mineral composition of the human skeleton and body fluids such as blood plasma and amniotic fluid.

Coral calcium can be used to maintain a good pH level that allows your body to absorb the nutrients it needs and keep you feeling young like the residents of Okinawa.
