    DETAILS

    Marine Healthfoods have been providing the leading marine food supplements for decades, and OysterMax is the world’s best pure oyster extract powder.‏‏‎ ‎

    Each bottle contains on average the concentrated extract of approximately 4-6kg of fresh oysters, meaning great value for money and no need to splurge on a dozen fresh oysters every week.

    Oysters are considered to be one of the most mineral-dense foods we have access to. This supplement contains 59 trace elements, 12 vitamins (including vitamin B12), 19 amino acids (including taurine), essential fish oils EPA and DHA, naturally occurring copper, selenium, iodine, and ZINC.‏‏‎ ‎

    4 capsules together contain an average of 3.0mg of natural organic zinc, which is the highest natural source on the market and 10 times the amount of zinc found in red meat. Though the body’s highly important copper reserves can become depleted if zinc is taken on its own, this supplement contains the perfect ratio of copper to keep the intrinsic balance of these two minerals in check.‏‏‎ ‎

    Also, the trace elements in OysterMax are bound to transport molecules (peptides and amino acids), which makes them considerably more bio-available than synthetic zinc supplements, for example. Synthetic zinc supplements need to bind to transport molecules during digestion before they can be absorbed, which may then affect their bioavailability. The high concentration of free amino acids and peptides are directly available to the blood once consumed, making them very fast-acting.

    All of the trace elements and nutrients in OysterMax are present in significant yet balanced concentrations, ensuring they all work in harmony as nature intended, without upsetting your bodies natural mineral and nutrient balance.

    BENEFITS

    • Fatigue

    OysterMax contains a high level of organic zinc, which helps protect the body from oxidative stress. Almost all of us - those exposed to environmental stresses (e.g., UV light, smoking, excess alcohol consumption), as well as stressed out professionals working long hours, and endurance athletes - will likely be suffering from higher than normal levels of oxidative stress and free radical build up. OysterMax protects from the fatigue and tiredness associated with this oxidative stress.

    • Immunity

    OysterMax also contains copper which, alongside zinc, contributes to the healthy functioning of the immune system. Zinc, specifically, is needed in the human body to activate T lymphocytes (T cells), which help the body control and regulate immune responses. Zinc has also been found to shorten the duration of the common cold and to ease the symptoms when taken within 24 hours of the onset. On the other hand, zinc deficiency can cause increased susceptibility to various pathogens and a host of health issues. OysterMax contains a safe amount of natural organic zinc (2.5 mg, on average) to supplement your healthy varied diet.

    • Pregnancy

    Nutritional demands increase dramatically for expectant and lactating mothers, to support healthy growth. For example, the recommended daily intake for zinc increases from 8mg daily to 12mg daily during pregnancy and lactation. OysterMax is the perfect supplement to help meet these needs.

    • Skin Conditions

    OysterMax contains naturally occurring zinc, which helps maintain healthy hair, skin and nails, protects the cells from oxidative stress, and supports normal immune function. OysterMax also contains high levels of amino acids, including cysteine. Free amino acids are very useful as they do not need to be digested, and they enter the blood stream directly and go to where the body needs them most. Three of these amino acids - glutamic acid, glycine and cysteine - are the building blocks for collagen. Free cysteine, specifically, is normally toxic to the body and having a non-toxic source of bio-available cysteine (in the form of OysterMax) is very advantageous for collagen production in the body. The rest of the amino acids in OysterMax are involved in the manufacture of enzymes, antioxidants and structural proteins such as keratin, which also support hair, skin, and nails.

    • Healthy Ageing and Reduced Inflammation

    Free radical damage is one of the major causes of premature ageing in tissues, especially the skin. Free radical damage in the cells also reduces the cells ability to produce energy and leads to overall loss of vitality and endurance. OysterMax contains many of the building blocks for the body’s antioxidant defences, helping to combat premature ageing and reduce inflammation.

    • Sexual Health

    OysterMax contains high levels of zinc, which supports the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, as well as normal fertility and reproduction. High levels of zinc are found in sperm and the prostate gland - in fact, sperm contain 700 times more zinc than is found in blood plasma, and the prostate contains more zinc than any other organ in the body. It is important for men especially to seek good dietary sources of zinc, and oysters are one of the highest sources.

    • Children and Physiological Problems

    OysterMax contains zinc, and studies have shown that increased zinc levels may aid children who display picky or challenging eating behaviours. Meanwhile, studies have suggested that zinc deficiency induces a number of physiological problems, including anorexia, growth retardation, dermatitis and taste disorders.
