When most of us think about calcium, we think about bones. And while strong bones are a vital benefit of this essential mineral, calcium does far more than support skeletal health. From regulating digestion and muscle contraction to playing a role in energy metabolism, calcium is central to the way our bodies function.

But here’s the catch: it isn’t just about how much calcium you consume, it’s about how much your body can actually absorb and use. That’s where Aquamin® Red Marine Algae comes in.

Why Bioavailability Matters in Gut Health Supplements

Many traditional calcium supplements use synthetic forms such as calcium carbonate. While these sources deliver calcium, they aren’t always absorbed efficiently by the body. Poor absorption not only reduces the benefits, but can also cause digestive discomfort like gas, bloating, or constipation - the very symptoms people looking after their gut health want to avoid.

Aquamin® is different. Derived from Lithothamnion sp., a red marine algae harvested sustainably from the North Atlantic seabed, it provides calcium and magnesium in a natural mineral matrix that your body can recognise and absorb more effectively. Studies show that minerals from whole-food sources like red algae are more bioavailable than synthetic alternatives, meaning your body gets more benefit from every serving.

The Multi-Mineral Advantage

Aquamin® is more than just calcium. It also delivers magnesium and over 70 trace minerals. This natural diversity supports a wide range of processes in the body:

• Digestive enzyme activity - helping food break down more efficiently.

• Muscle and nerve function - reducing fatigue and supporting energy.

• Gut lining health - minerals play a role in maintaining integrity and reducing inflammation.

When it comes to gut health supplements, this multi-mineral complex offers a unique edge. It not only feeds your body the calcium it needs, but also helps optimise digestion and nutrient absorption.

Aquamin® and Gut Health

A healthy gut relies on more than bacteria. Minerals like calcium and magnesium are crucial for maintaining normal digestive processes. Aquamin® has been studied for its role in:

• Supporting digestive enzyme activity, helping to reduce bloating and discomfort.

• Enhancing gut motility and regularity.

• Strengthening the gut lining, which is often compromised in people with IBS or chronic digestive imbalance.

This makes it particularly valuable in gut health formulas aimed at easing bloating, restoring balance, and improving long-term digestive comfort.

Why We Chose Aquamin® for Biotic Energy

At JERMS, we believe supplements should fit into real life. We know our community isn’t looking to juggle endless pills or powders, but to find gut health supplements that truly work. That’s why we included Aquamin® in Biotic Energy.

When paired with probiotics, prebiotics, and adaptogens, Aquamin® provides a layer of support that helps your gut absorb and use the nutrients it needs to fuel energy, focus, and resilience. Energy doesn’t just come from caffeine - it comes from how well your body absorbs the food and supplements you take in. By improving bioavailability, Aquamin® makes every scoop of Biotic Energy more effective.

Small Habits, Big Results

Gut health is at the centre of overall health. With Aquamin® Red Marine Algae, we bring together science, sustainability, and simplicity. A natural, plant-based calcium that doesn’t just support bones, but actively helps with digestion, immunity, and energy.

It’s a reminder that gut health isn’t just about bacteria. Minerals matter too - especially when they’re as bioavailable, clean, and effective as Aquamin®.
