"Harvesting Nutrients From The Sea"
 

"I look forward to the day when we prevent
nutritional problems before they affect
an animal's well being."

- Susan Domizi, president of SOURCE, Inc.

While SOURCE is marketed strictly as a nutritional supplement and makes no medical claims, Domizi believes that its positive effects are to due replacement of micronutrients no longer available in our food supplies. Every state has now reported trace mineral deficiencies in its soils, she notes. Soils lacking in needed nutrients produce foods lacking in them. Heat processing, poor harvesting, and improper storage can further decrease nutrient levels...

View of boat off the shore...Trace elements are held in suspension in the ocean, Domizi continues. As seaweeds filter these nutritious waters, they store the trace elements as bioactive compounds in their tissues. Domizi feels that the best way we could improve our food supply would be to fertilize soils with seaweed. That is simply too expensive, she says, so the alternative is using a supplement that brings these "lost" trace minerals back into the diet.

"We're always improving [SOURCE] as we learn how to improve harvesting and processing, and learn more about the analytical profiles of various macroalgae. We'll never stop until it's perfect."
- Susan Domizi
