• Background: Marine algae exist in great abundance in oceans and freshwater lakes. The 25,000 species known to man are grouped into four families: red, brown, blue or green algae. Marine algae are the most basic of organisms, yet they are one of the richest natural sources of minerals, vitamins, amino acids and trace elements. Active levels of these nutrients can vary depending on species, location, ocean salinity, season, and sea currents. Furthermore, extraction processes designed to isolate individual elements can easily destroy other nutrients found in algae. SkinCeuticals marine algae are harvested off the coast of Brazil, one of the few non-polluted harvesting sites where algae are known to contain some of the highest levels of active nutrients. Through a proprietary extraction process, we ensure that peak levels of active ingredients are preserved.
