What is Coral Complex?

Coral Complex contains 900mg or 90% of your daily calcium per
serving, along with 1200 IU’s of Vitamin D3. This is encapsulated coral
calcium at its purest which greatly benefits the human body. Coral
Complex is the original powdered coral capsule, first developed in the
USA in 1999. Our formula has become the most popular and successful
coral capsule formula in the world. Coral Complex’s most notable
additive is 400 IU of vitamin D3 as cholecalceriferol in each capsule.
Vitamin D3 (the sunshine vitamin) charges the receptors in your small
intestine. These are instrumental in the uptake of calcium.

Coral Complex also delivers more than 70 trace minerals that are
essential to your body’s function. Coral Calcium is also ECO SAFE,
assuring you that we never touch the ocean when harvesting our coral
calcium.

What you may not know about vitamin D:

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in very
few foods. Vitamin D is important for the maintenance of a healthy body
because it helps maximize the absorption and utilization of calcium, an
important mineral that our bodies need. When paired with calcium vitamin
C and Magnesium, Coral Complex helps regulate bone remodeling and
growth, ensuring healthy, strong bones and teeth, cardiovascular health
and healthy muscle concentration. Coral Complex can also help protect
older adults from osteoporosis, which is caused by bone loss due to
aging. Coral Complex 3 boosts the immune system and reduces inflammation
within the body, thus warding off future medical conditions. It also
plays a vital role in cell growth, neuromuscular functions and protein
encoding.

Studies have shown that a regular, healthy vitamin D intake can also
serve as an antidepressant and make people feel generally happier. Coral
Complex contains1200 IU of Vitamin D3 providing the body with a
sufficient amount of vitamin D in order to promote healthy body.

Why is taking a vitamin D supplement better than getting it from the sun?

Sun exposure is another method of obtaining vitamin D, as our bodies
can create our own sources of the nutrient upon exposure to UV rays.
However, it is difficult to gauge exactly how much sun exposure can
generate sufficient vitamin D, as overexposure can be harmful to the
body as well. UV rays are also known to trigger free radicals, which can
lead to skin cancer if left unchecked.

It has been suggested by some vitamin D researchers that
approximately 5 to 30 minutes of sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
at least twice a week to the face, arms, legs or back can usually lead
to sufficient vitamin D synthesis. Exposed areas of the body cannot be
covered by sunscreen, as the SPF factor blocks UV rays and can hinder
vitamin D synthesis reaction. For individuals living in cloudy areas
lacking in sunlight, it is important to gain the recommended vitamin D
via other means.

Dietary supplements are also an excellent way of obtaining vitamin D. I choose Coral Complex as my supplement for my vitamin D.

What research and studies suggest about Vitamin D:

As the research into vitamin D is accumulating, it is hard to know
where the accolades should start. “Vitamin D is one of the most potent
inhibitors of cancer cell growth,” says Michael F. Holick, PhD, MD, who
heads the Vitamin D, Skin, and Bone Research Laboratory at Boston
University School of Medicine. “It also stimulates your pancreas to make
insulin. It regulates your immune system.”

In a study published in the Journal of the American Medical
Association of more than 3,000 veterans (ages 50 to 75) at 13 Veterans
Affairs medical centers, those who consumed more than 645 IU of vitamin D
a day along with more than 4 grams per day of cereal fiber had a 40%
reduction in their risk of developing precancerous colon polyps.

In a report in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society,
researchers at the University of Basel in Switzerland showed that
elderly women who took a vitamin D supplement plus calcium for three
months reduced their risk of falling by 49% compared with consuming
calcium alone. Those women who had fallen repeatedly in the past seemed
to gain the most benefit from vitamin D.

A study in published in an issue of Neurology indicated that women who
get doses of vitamin D — of at least 400 international units — are 40%
less likely to develop multiple sclerosis compared with those not taking
over-the-counter supplements.

Benefits of Vitamin D and Calcium

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
vitamin D is essential for the “formation, growth, and repair of bones
and for normal calcium absorption and immune function.” Studies suggest
that “higher levels of vitamin D in the blood are associated with
reduced risks of colorectal cancer; however, the research results
overall have been inconsistent.”

• It is crucial for the absorption and metabolism of calcium and
  phosphorous, which have various functions, especially the maintenance of
  healthy bones.
• It is an immune system regulator.
• Aids the immune system – vitamin D may be an important way to arm
  the immune system against disorders like the common cold, say scientists
  from the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine,
  Massachusetts General Hospital and Children’s Hospital Boston.
• MS risk – it may reduce the risk of developing multiple sclerosis.
  Multiple sclerosis is much less common the nearer you get to the
  tropics, where there is much more sunlight, according to Dennis
  Bourdette, chairman of the Department of Neurology and director of the
  Multiple Sclerosis and Neuroimmunology Center at Oregon Health and
  Science University, USA.
• Maintaining cognitive functions – vitamin D may play a key role in
  helping the brain keep working well in later life, according to a study
  of 3000 European men between the ages of 40 and 79.
  
  Healthy body weight – vitamin D probably plays an important role in
  maintaining a healthy body weight, according to research carried out at
  the Medical College of Georgia, USA.
• Asthma symptoms and frequency – it can reduce the severity and
  frequency of asthma symptoms, and also the likelihood of
  hospitalizations due to asthma, researchers from Harvard Medical School
  found after monitoring 616 children in Costa Rica.
• Rheumatoid arthritis – it has been shown to reduce the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis in women.
• Protects from radiation damage – a form of vitamin D could be one of
  our body’s main protections against damage from low levels of
  radiation, say radiological experts from the New York City Department of
  Health and Mental Hygiene.
• Vitamin D and cancer risk – various studies have shown that people
  with adequate levels of vitamin D have a significantly lower risk of
  developing cancer, compared to those whose levels are low. Vitamin D
  deficiency was found to be prevalent in cancer patients regardless of
  nutritional status in a study carried out by the Cancer Treatment
  Centers of America.
• T.B. recovery – high vitamin D doses can help people recover from
  tuberculosis more rapidly, researchers reported in September 2012 in the
  Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
• Heart attack risk – A study published in September 2012 suggested
  that low levels of vitamin D might increase the risk of heart attack and
  early death.
• Why I Decided To Use Coral Complex

Most people have a vitamin D deficient and Calcium is a mineral that
is necessary for life. In addition to building bones and keeping them
healthy, calcium helps our blood clot, nerves send messages and muscles
contract. About 99 percent of the calcium in our bodies is in our bones
and teeth. Each day, we lose calcium through our skin, nails, hair,
sweat, urine and feces, but our bodies cannot produce new calcium.
That’s why I like using Coral Complex. Coral Complex contains both
Calcium and Vitamin D along with Vitamin C and Magnesium.

Over the years as I enter my 40’s, I have seen a decline in my body’s
performance.  I am a healthy individual however; my body does not
perform the way it did when I was in my twenties.  This is because our
bodies do not produce the same amount of hormones, we lack many vitamins
and nutrients that most people are unaware of and most people just
accept it as this is what happens when we get older.  Vitamin D
especially, because you cannot get Vitamin D from most of the food we
eat. Our main resource is the sun for vitamin D. However, if we provide
our body’s with what they need (what our body is lacking) who says, we
cannot feel the way when we are twenty again.

I had a blood test and the doctor told me that I was lacking vitamin
D, so I heard about Coral Complex and all the great benefits you can
obtain from using it so I tried it. I noticed a vast improvement in my
energy.  By replenishing using Coral Complex, I am able to function more
effectively and productively on a daily basis.

Why I love Coral Complex:

I have read many articles that caution people about what vitamins and
supplements you should choose and many experts advise people to use a
reliable vitamin company with a good reputation because many vitamin
companies may not use the actual supplements.  Some companies use
artificial components or fillers in their vitamins and supplements.  In
addition, you need to use a reliable company that uses fish that carry
no mer  cury in it because you do not want fill your body with hazardous
toxins.

I am always extra careful by reading the labels and researching the
ingredients in the bottle before I buy it and you should be to. I am
impressed with Coral Complex’s high standards and quality of their
product.  I have also been using their green coffee extract for over a
year, I found their supplements to be effective, and the company is
professional and reliable.  If you have a question, they will get back
to you quickly and answer any questions.

I was very impressed with their Coral Complex. It DOES NOT contain
any fillers, binders, preservatives, wheat, gluten, soybeans, dairy,
eggs, nuts, stearates, silica, or titanium dioxide.
