The concept of oyster powders can sometimes be confusing. For example, there are distinct differences between premium oyster powder and oyster shell powder.
Although they both come from oysters they are totally different.
Premium oyster powder offers zinc and trace element benefits from oyster meat extraction, while its oyster shell counterpart, serves up calcium carbonate ingredients.
“Premium oyster powder like the one we offer does not have any oyster shells in it,” said Nutrilys Del Mar’s spokesperson from its marine supplement headquarters based in San Diego. “This powder is derived from the meat of the oyster; and, depending on the size of the shellfish, you may get anywhere from 48 to 60 oysters in one bottle so its potency is rather magnificent.”
Premium oyster powder is considered a specialty and is done by very few worldwide.
Oyster meat has high levels of zinc. In fact, its numbers far exceed zinc levels in red meat.
Premium oyster powder also delivers necessary zinc co-factors including:
• Manganese
• Copper
• Selenium
• Strontium
“Our bodies need zinc, and so many of us have a deficiency with it that can lead to health conditions such fatigue, poor sexual health, prostate issues, premature aging, compromised immunity and macular degeneration,” she said. “And a natural source of zinc coming from the ocean is superior to a synthetic source manufactured in a factory.”
Health benefits of premium oyster powder include:
• Decreases fatigue
• Boosts immune system
• Enhances sexual libido
• Improves skin, hair, and nails
• Supports bone and joint health
“On the flipside, for those who have a passion for gardening and harvesting their own fruits and vegetables for healthier living, a fine oyster shell powder is fantastic to improve the quality of your soil because the calcium carbonate ingredients acts as a soil conditioner,” the spokesperson said. “The oyster shells are long lasting and your soil receives an ongoing release of micronutrients which help improve your fertilizer while balancing out its pH levels.”
While understanding the difference between premium oyster powder from oyster meat and oyster powder from oyster shells, it’s so important to point out that they are derived from a natural pathway.
The ocean is the gateway to health and wellness.
