Calcium from Biocoral® Calcium is used as a dietary calcium supplement. Biocoral® calcium is extracted from natural coral to the fine powder. Preliminary scientific studies indicate that Biocoral® calcium can be beneficial for health. However, the advice of a health professional should be sought before trying to prevent, treat or cure a condition with biocoral calcium.
 

Antioxidant
Biocoral® was found to be an antioxidant, in a study published in 2009 in “Biomaterials.” Antioxidants are an important component of health. This is because they work on a cellular level thereby reducing the onset of disease in general. When cells use oxygen to produce energy, they give off harmful byproducts called free radicals that can attack healthy cells. However, antioxidants attach themselves to free radicals and prevent them from damaging or killing cells.

Accelerated Senescence
Accelerated senescence is essentially rapid aging. Biocoral® may help prevent this from occurring. The 2009 study in “Biomaterials” found that Biocoral® protected against accelerated senescence in the brains of mice. The Biocoral® supplementation works by affecting the processes of genes involved with cellular preservation.

Bone Formation
Biocoral® can improve bone growth. A study published in 2010 in the Journal of Oral Implantology revealed that bone tissue was grown in the presence of Biocoral®.
The researchers implanted graphs that contained coral calcium with steel rods into the bones of mice that lead to accelerated bone growth compared to controls. The researchers noted that Biocoral® improved bone growth by roughly 36 percent.
