What We Do
AlgaeCal has pioneered the multi-nutrient approach to bone health, has supported its effectiveness with clinical studies, and guarantees stronger bones as measured by DEXA, making us the leader in natural bone health.
We are firm believers in the power of nature and the veracity of good science. AlgaeCal Inc. is proud to be the first company to popularize a plant as a calcium source in a world of limestone calcium supplements.
We have learned this full spectrum of plant minerals outperforms traditional calcium through independent clinical trials. As pioneers introducing vitamin K2, significant levels of D3, and strontium, we have forged a path for others to follow.
More recently, AlgaeCal has developed the world’s best bone supporting anti-inflammatory product, Triple Power Omega 3 Fish Oil. Inflammation is a primary cause of bone loss so it needs to be addressed head-on with the 3 leading anti-inflammatory nutrients.
But perhaps what sets AlgaeCal apart from the crowd most is guaranteeing your result. No doctor or supplement company we know of has the confidence in their approach to bone loss to do this.
We’re a different kind of company.
