The Dead Sea is the deepest salt lake in the world. It's saline content is approximately 6-8 times higher than that of the oceans. It is named the Dead Sea because the salt concentration is so significant that plant and animal life cannot be sustained in these waters. In addition to its noteworthy sodium chloride (salt) content, the Dead Sea is remarkably rich in other minerals including Potassium, Magnesium, Bromide and an array of other essential and trace minerals. The shores of the Dead Sea are home to many health spas and resorts. Since ancient times, the Dead Sea has attracted visitors who have sought healing relief by soaking and bathing in its nutrient-rich waters. It is said that those that swim in the Dead Sea easily float on the water's surface due to the high concentration of sodium chloride. Dead Sea Salts have been used for centuries to help restore the natural chemical balance of the skin, make it look and feel smoother and heal skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema. The synergistic mineral composition of Dead Sea Salts, including its high potassium and magnesium content, gives Dead Sea Salts strong anti-inflammatory action. The Dead Sea contains significantly higher quantities of these minerals than the does the ocean or other bodies of salt water. Dead Sea Salts, therefore, are superior for use in bath salts and other personal care products intended to ease muscular aches and pains, promote relaxation and reduce stiffness. Dead Sea Salts are an ideal choice for body exfoliating products as the salts also help to re-mineralize the skin, balance moisture content, improve circulation and draw toxins out from the skin.

It does not have flagella and has a spherical or ovoid shape the size of 1-40 µm.Its cells, of varying colors of red depending on age and culture conditions, are coated in a mucilaginous sheath of polysaccharides. Unlike plants, red microalgae have no real cell wall; their mucilage cover protects them from harsh environmental conditions such as heat or strong light. This is also how they are protected from attack due to salts.In addition to ordinary pigments such as chlorophyll and carotenoids, Rhodophytes are distinguished from other microalgae by the presence of phycobiliproteins. The most abundant in Porphyridium are the phycoerythrins which give it this characteristic red color. Thanks to these phycoerythrins, red microalgae can live at a depth of up to 250 m.

Algosource Liquid Spirulina Extract is a cyanobacterium, or blue-green algae, belonging to the Arthrospira genus. The most common species are Spirulina maxima and Arthrospira platensis. Spirulina contains around 60% protein in dry form. It is a source of antioxidants, strengthens the immune system and improves the tone and vitality of the body. Like all microalgae, Spirulina must however be considered with caution to ensure its quality. Cultivation must be managed with rigor and attention to detail in order to avoid the development of elements which are harmful to humans, such as heavy metals. Spirulina is largely made up (80%) of hydrophilic elements: proteins, minerals, polysaccharides and water-soluble vitamins. Inside the cell, water is used to transport the majority of Spirulina metabolites and plays the role of natural support. Thus, water is fundamental to its survival and to the activities of most of its constituents. As a result, the drying of Spirulina eliminates most of this interior water, causing the death of the cell which can no longer ensure its vital functions. Drying therefore profoundly modifies the structure of Spirulina and its metabolites. This is one of the reasons for the liquid form of AlgoSource extracts.

CAPALGIN® is an "overwintered" Chondrus crispus extract (OCCE) characterized by a very high concentration of citrullinyl-arginine together with high amounts of floridosides (combination of glycerol and galactose), and taurine.
