All the Nutrients You Need

The Bone Builder Pack combines the benefits of the 16 bone-supporting nutrients in AlgaeCal Plus – including our organic ocean calcium, boron, magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin D3, and vitamin K2-7 – along with Strontium Boost which naturally accelerates your body’s bone-building processes.

Clinically supported to increase bone density after 6 months.

Increase Bone Density

  • Calcium

    (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

    (As Magnesium Oxide & AlgaeCal Mesophyllum Superpositum )

    If you want better bones, then you need more magnesium. Clinical studies show people with healthy magnesium levels have better bone better density than their magnesium-deficient counterparts.

  • Manganese

    (As AlgaeCal Mesophyllum Superpositum)

    Vitamin C helps your body fight the root cause of bone loss. A 17-year study found that a high intake of this vitamin reduced the likelihood of hip and non-vertebral fractures.

    • Vitamin K2

      (As Menaquinone-7)

      You need vitamin K2 because it collects calcium from your bloodstream and directs it into your bones - keeping them healthy and strong. You don’t want calcium getting into your soft tissue - where it can cause heart attacks, strokes, and even Alzheimer’s.

    • Boron

      (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.

    • Vitamin D3

      (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 1,600 IU of this bone-building vitamin.

      • Potassium

        (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.

      • Nickel

        (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!

      • Strontium

        (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.

        • Copper

          (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.

        • Silicon

          (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.

        • Phosphorus

          (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.

          • Zinc

            (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.

          • Vitamin C

            (As Calcium Ascorbate)

            Vitamin C helps your body fight the root cause of bone loss. A 17-year study found that a high intake of this vitamin reduced the likelihood of hip and non-vertebral fractures.

          • Vanadium

            (As AlgaeCal Mesophyllum Superpositum)

            In one study, vanadium compounds were shown to increase bone formation without any adverse health effects!

            • Selenium

              (As AlgaeCal Mesophyllum Superpositum)

              Selenium is the required cofactor for two groups of enzymes intimately tied to bone health: the selenoproteins, which neutralize bone destructive free radicals, and the deiodinase enzymes, which are necessary for the healthy thyroid. Furthermore, it keeps our bone renewal metabolism running. For these reasons, low selenium can mean decreased bone mineral density.

              • Calcium

                (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

                Increases Bone Density

                Traditional calcium supplements can't increase bone density. They have 1 or 2 nutrients.
                But AlgaeCal Plus has 16 nutrients clinically supported to INCREASE Bone Density.

                Clinically Supported

                AlgaeCal Plus is the ONLY calcium in the world that's clinically supported to increase bone density.
                It's true-no other calcium supplement can say that.So if increasing bone density is your goal, AlgaeCal isn't an option. lt's the ONLY option.

                Plant-Based

                Most calcium supplements are rock-based.
                That's why you end up with bloating, gas, and constipation. AlgaeCal Plus, on the other hand, is made from organic algae. lt's safe and has zero adverse side effects.

                Essential Nutrients

                Most calciums supplements have only 1 or 2 nutrients.
                But AlgaeCal Plus is packed with 16 nutrients that are clinically supported to increase bone density.

                Easy to Swallow

                Our small, veggie-based capsules go down easy.
                Plus, they're Dairy-Free, Soy-Free, Gluten-Free, and Non-GMO. And to top it off, the packaging is recyclable. Better for you-and the planet.

                  Bone Health 40s & 50s

                  Bone Health in Your 40s & 50s

                  fact, by the time most women hit their mid-50s they've already lost 20% of their bone density-and that's dangerous!

                  AlgaeCal Plus is clinically supported to increase bone density. So, instead of getting weaker, you're getting stronger.

                  Your Stronger Bones For Life Guarantee

                  We guarantee that AlgaeCal's Bone Builder Pack will increase your bone mineral density or your money back. The 16 bone-supporting nutrients start to work from the very first day you begin to take them. And you're guaranteed to see measurable results on a DEXA scan after just six months.

                  This guarantee doesn't only cover you for the first six months. It covers you for life. That's right. We promise that your bone density will continue to increase, with every DEXA scan showing better results than the last…for your lifetime.

                  Skeptical? Good. So are we.

                  If you've been let down by bold claims from supplement companies before, we understand. We have too. That's why we do things differently.

                  We didn't just say our calcium supplement increases bone density. We backed it. With not one, not two, but three human clinical studies. These independent studies were published in peer-reviewed scientific journals. And the results have been confirmed by thousands of DEXA scans in medical clinics across all 50 states.

                  So if you're skeptical, we welcome it. Read the studies. Check the ingredients.
                  The numbers don't lie.

                  And the results speak for themselves.

                  Clinically Supported

                  researchers from leading institutions including Harvard Medical School, Georgetown University, and the University of Texas. The conclusion was the same across all three:

                  AlgaeCal is the only calcium supplement ever shown to increase bone density‡.

                  Plant-Based Calcium

                  Most Natural Calcium Supplements are Made From Rocks

                  AlgaeCal is different. It's made from organic marine algae— mesophyllum superpositum - a plant-based source that naturally containsall the bone-supporting minerals your bodyneeds to stop bone loss and increase bone density.

                  Frequently Asked Questions

                  AlgaeCal is a South American marine algae species, Mesophyllum superpositum (or Algas calcareas as the locals call it). This kiwi-fruit sized algae is sustainably hand harvested in the Atlantic ocean, sun dried, then milled into a powder. There is no extraction process or additives used – just pure whole food calcium and minerals coming from a living plant.

                  AlgaeCal powder is the foundational ingredient in our products, AlgaeCal Basic and AlgaeCal Plus. AlgaeCal powder has significant advantages over traditional calcium supplements that are pure calcium because AlgaeCal contains all 13 known essential bone supporting minerals: calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorous, nickel, silica, copper, vanadium, potassium, zinc, boron, selenium and strontium. Traditional calcium carbonate and calcium citrate supplements are made from limestone and marble – and your body does not absorb rocks very well – so plant-sourced AlgaeCal has the benefit of being body-friendly and better absorbed into your bones.

                  To maximize your bone-building, take 4 capsules of AlgaeCal Plus a day. (This was the dosage that led to the most significant bone density increases in clinical trials).

                  We recommend splitting the daily 4 capsule dose into 2 servings of 2 capsules throughout the day. Your body can only absorb 500mg of calcium at a time, so taking more than 2 AlgaeCal capsules in one serving would lead to unabsorbed calcium.

                  And finally, it’s best to take your AlgaeCal Plus with food. That’s because taking calcium with food increases how well you absorb it. When you eat, your stomach produces acid that dissolves the minerals in AlgaeCal Plus so they can be properly absorbed when they reach your intestinal tract.

                  AlgaeCal Plus contains calcium from a marine, plant-based algae source calledMesophyllum superpositum. This algae belongs to the family of algaes known as Algas calcareas. So to make it easier to say, we just named it “AlgaeCal”! AlgaeCal has worldwide exclusive rights to this particular type of algae – and it is the only clinically backed calcium supplement in the world withhuman studiesshowing increases in bone mineral density. All other calcium has only ever been shown to slow down bone loss. In addition to this unique calcium, AlgaeCal Plus also contains magnesium, vitamin D3, vitamin K2 (in the form MK-7), vitamin C, boron and naturally-occurring trace minerals. In particular, AlgaeCal Plus contains all 13 bone-building minerals in their proper proportions that make up your bone matrix. AlgaeCal Plus is also dairy-free, soy-free, gluten-free and non-GMO! For an in-depth explanation of each ingredient go to AlgaeCal Ingredients.

                  If you are suffering from bone loss, it is best to take both AlgaeCal Plus and Strontium Boost. Together they areclinically supportedto increase bone density in as little as 6 months – at any age! They also increase your bone density at a faster rate than AlgaeCal Plus alone. For example, studies prove AlgaeCal Plus alone can increase bone density by an average of 1.3% per year, compared with an average bone density increase of about 4% per year with AlgaeCal Plus and Strontium Boost together. This is significant for those suffering from bone loss who may be experiencing more than 1% bone density loss per year. Taking the two together also gives the bone-building process a “kick start” to increase bone density safely and naturally, ensuring you have covered any potential losses.

                  AlgaeCal lists the minerals in the elemental form on the supplement facts label. Therefore, AlgaeCal Plus contains 360 mg of elemental calcium in two capsules (that’s 720 mg of elemental calcium in a daily dose, AlgaeCal lists the minerals in the elemental form on the supplement facts label. Therefore, AlgaeCal Plus contains 360 mg of elemental calcium in two capsules (that’s 720 mg of elemental calcium in a daily dose, 4 capsules).

                  AlgaeCal Plus, AlgaeCal Basic, and Strontium Boost all use soft capsules which are ¾” long and easy to swallow. If you do have trouble swallowing them, the two-part capsules can be pulled apart. You can then sprinkle the tasteless powder into your favorite drinks and food. We recommend semi-solid foods such as smoothies, applesauce or yogurt and avoiding hot drinks as temperatures above 120 degrees Fahrenheit as it may reduce the potency of the vitamins C, D, and K2. Please note that the AlgaeCal powder is only partially water soluble due to the many natural minerals and therefore does not dissolve completely in liquid.

                  Unlike traditional, rock-derived calcium supplements, AlgaeCal has no adverse side effects such as kidney stones or arterial calcification. AlgaeCal is a natural, plant-sourced calcium that is easy for your body to absorb. It’s similar to calcium you get from eating vegetables such as broccoli, kale and peas. Some studies have shown that calcium from food sources does not increase soft tissue calcification because foods that naturally contain calcium also supply other minerals, which helps transfer the calcium directly into your bones rather than soft tissues like arteries, kidneys and eyes. Additional magnesium, boron, vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 are added into AlgaeCal Plus to optimize absorption and transport to the bone rather than soft tissues. All these factors translate to efficient absorption and placement into bone tissue. AlgaeCal is also much safer for you because it is more effective at a lower dose. At 720 mg per day of calcium, AlgaeCal Plus is increasing bone density in adults. Compare that to regular calcium supplements that have been studied at 1200 mg per day – and only slow bone loss.

                  The vast majority of people who experience gastrointestinal side effects from regular calcium supplements have not experienced any adverse side effects from AlgaeCal. These stomach troubles usually derive from consuming rock-source calcium, which our bodies are not designed to digest. Plant calcium contains a variety of balancing minerals including magnesium, which make it more easily digested. We recommend that you split your daily dose into breakfast and dinner time. Taking AlgaeCal with food increases absorption and reduces chances of any gastrointestinal issues.

                  The recommended daily dose is the same for each individual no matter their size because it is based on age, not weight. In fact, if you are petite, you are at a higher risk for bone density loss because you have less skeletal mass to begin with, so a full dose is recommended.

                  Great question! Actually, lead is a natural mineral like calcium or magnesium which is found in the earth, air and water. So every vegetable that grows in the soil or water has normal amounts of lead in it – the marine algae in AlgaeCal is no exception. Luckily, our bodies easily clear normal amounts of lead daily through urine, feces, and sweat.

                  Every batch of AlgaeCal powder is tested by a third party laboratory for microbial activity, heavy metals, mineral content and more. The final product is made in an FDA-inspected GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) plant where the highest standards are kept.

                  AlgaeCal has FDA registration and Health Canada approvals. It has been on the market for 20 years and has 3 clinical studies and a toxicology study showing extraordinary safety!

                  Absolutely. All bone drugs require calcium supplementation to supply the needed calcium for bone building – and AlgaeCal Plus is the highest quality calcium available. We recommend separating your prescription medication from your AlgaeCal.

                  Please consult your health care provider, before making any healthcare decisions or for guidance about a specific medical condition.

                  Yes, it's likely your doctor may already be familiar with AlgaeCal, particularly if they’re supportive of natural treatments. However, to make sure they have all the necessary details, we suggest printing our ”Take It To Your Doctor” sheet and bringing it to your next appointment. This will help your doctor provide you with the best advice tailored to your health needs.

                  AlgaeCal does contain a minute amount of iodine – only 160 mcg of iodine per daily serving of AlgaeCal Plus. If in doubt, please discuss with your doctor whether the amounts in AlgaeCal are appropriate for you. For best results, we recommend that you separate your thyroid medication by at least 4 hours from when you take AlgaeCal or Strontium Boost.
