Oysters as the best natural source of zinc
There is no other food in nature that contains as much zinc as oysters. 6 medium oysters contain on average more than 70 mg of zinc! The great thing about this supplement is that the nutrients in it are all completely bioavailable and that all cofactors for zinc, such as manganese, copper and selenium, are present in the correct proportions. This means that there is a natural mineral balance, exactly as nature intended. This is very important, as taking zinc as a standalone supplement can potentially lead to an imbalance of minerals in the body. Together with other micronutrients in OysterMax®, zinc is important for more than 300 enzymes in the body.
The good things about oysters in a row
The OysterMax® - Oyster Extract from Marine Healthfoods is a unique oyster extract in powder form that contains 59 trace elements, 12 vitamins, 19 amino acids and the omega-3 fatty acids EPA & DHA. Oysters are a good source of zinc in particular, which helps the immune system to protect healthy body cells, contributes to normal fertility and hormone balance and is good for skin, hair and nails. Oysters also contain a lot of copper, which protects the cells, is good for skin and hair and supports the immune system. The seafood also contains a lot of selenium, which is good for the thyroid gland, nails and hair, the immune system and male fertility. The iodine present in oysters is also good for the skin, thyroid gland, nervous system, energy level and memory. Oysters are also a good source of vitamin B12, which supports the immune system, nervous system, energy level and the production of red blood cells. Finally, the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are abundantly present, which are good for the heart and for maintaining normal blood pressure.
The role of oysters in our evolution
More and more researchers are convinced that eating fish has played an important role in human evolution, as its consumption has been crucial for the development of our current brain. The brain is fed with fats, particularly unsaturated fats with long fatty acids. We now know that food from the sea, including fish, seaweed, shellfish and crustaceans such as oysters, is a good source of these fats. When our ancestors spread across the world along rivers and coasts, water was an important source of food for them. In this way, their bodies received the fats that ensured that the brain could further develop and grow in size in a relatively short time.
Powerful and natural oyster extract
The selective harvest of oysters in the right season and the unique, careful processing process make OysterMax® a very powerful and pure natural oyster extract that is a true complex of micronutrients. It is the only oyster product worldwide that contains 59 trace elements in significant quantities. The carefully selected oysters from which OysterMax® is made grow in the clean waters of the Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of Ireland. The waters in this area are constantly and strictly monitored by the Irish Department of the Marine. The supplement is then manufactured in a qualified production facility in Ireland that meets all Irish and European requirements and controls. The unique process used ensures that nutrients are damaged as little as possible, making the product as rich in micronutrients as possible.
