Question: To whom it may concern; I would Like to know if your coral calcium capsules absorb as well as your liquid coral calcium, and if not, please provide me with the percentage that the body actually absorbs of each product. I am planning to make some purchases and would like to know which product would be best for me. Thank You very much for the Information.
Answer: Michelle,
Both liquid and capsule coral calcium are highly absorbable, it really comes down to preference. I hope this helps.

Mangosteen Xanthone Percentages

Q: Dear Doctor,
Can you please tell me the percentage of xanthones present in your Mangosteen Elixir? I can’t find it anywhere on your website. Also why doesn’t anyone else list the amount per ounce of liquid or gram of powder?
Sincerely,
Rhonda M.
A: Rhonda,
There is a lot of controversy and confusion regarding the percentage of xanthones in mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.). Chromedex one of the best analytical labs in the business only measures alpha, beta, and gamma mangostin xanthone level. Chromedex also focuses only on liquid product analysis so powders and extracts can’t be qualified. Because of the difficulty and expense, it is not possible for us or any other producer to list the precise percentage total of xanthones per ounce. Not to mention that batch to batch will yield a slightly different amount.
Sincerely,
Marcus Ettinger DC, BSc.
