Two Superfoods - Complete Mineral and Amino-Acid Profile
Most calcium and mineral supplements contain synthetic compounds, ground-up, hard-to-digest rock or heat-processed indigestible bonemeal of unknown origin.
GreenMin takes the opposite approach. We've identified the two most nutritionally complete superfoods on Earth and combined them in their purest form. No fillers. No synthetic additives. Just two ingredients that deliver all the minerals, amino acids and phytonutrients your dog needs to thrive.
Ingredient #1: Certified Organic Alga Calcarea (Brazil)
The World's Most Bioavailable Plant-Based Mineral Source
Not all calcium is created equal. This rare red marine algae, sustainably hand-harvested from the shores of South America, contains 20+ trace minerals — not just calcium, but the complete spectrum your dog's bones, teeth, organs and cells require.
Why Alga Calcarea stands apart:
- 80%+ absorption rate (compared to less than 10% from synthetic calcium sources)
- Contains calcium, iron, magnesium, boron, silica, strontium, zinc, and other trace elements.
- A seven-year clinical study showed a 7% increase in bone density and improved skeletal strength.
- Supports dental health and reduces inflammatory responses
- USDA certified organic and tested to be free of pesticides and heavy metals
Healthy minerals protect your dog from heavy metals: When the body is flooded with healthy minerals, it naturally pushes out toxic heavy metals. Think of it like assigned seating on an airplane — when the good minerals occupy the receptor sites, harmful metals like lead and mercury can't sit down. Also, healthy minerals have the ability to push mercury, lead or cadmium out of cells.
Ingredient #2: All-Natural California Spirulina (USA)
NASA's Superfood, Now for Your Dog
This blue-green algae superfood is so nutrient-dense that NASA has used it to feed astronauts on space missions. It's one of the most complete and balanced amino-acid sources found in nature.
Why California Spirulina is exceptional:
- 60-70% protein by dry weight — higher than any meat, fish, or plant
- Contains all essential amino-acids in a highly digestible form (85%+ absorption in 18 hours)
- Rich in phycocyanins (the "blue gold" antioxidant), chlorophyll, and beta-carotene
- Supports immune function, reduces inflammation, and aids gentle detoxification
- Helps push heavy metals out of the body while nourishing at the cellular level
- Sourced from California, never from China
Why These Two Ingredients Work Together
Alga Calcarea provides the structural building blocks — the minerals that form strong bones, healthy teeth, and balanced cellular and organ function. Spirulina provides the fuel — complete amino acid profile and antioxidants that are essential for healthy metabolism and protection from DNA damage.
Together, they create a synergistic effect that far exceeds what either ingredient could accomplish alone.
What's Actually Inside Each Scoop
No additives or preservatives. Here's exactly what your dog gets in every serving.
We love transparency. Below is the complete nutritional breakdown of GreenMin — every mineral, amino-acid, and phytonutrient, measured and listed. This unique, plant-based mineral profile would be hard to find elsewhere. This is why GreenMin is one of the most popular calcium, mineral and amino acid supplements available.

This is what natural superfood nutrition actually looks like. No ground-up rock or synthetic chemicals. Just two whole-food superfoods delivering the full spectrum of minerals, amino-acids and phytonutrients, your dog's body thrive on.
Why Is GreenMin Essential For Your Dog?
Your dog's body performs 37 thousand billion billion (37,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) chemical reactions every second! That's not a typo, it is a massive number — 37 with 21 zeros!
Can you imagine?!
And every single one of those reactions requires minerals as the fundamental ingredients. Without a complete spectrum of minerals, those reactions slow down, falter, or stop entirely. That's when you see the signs: dull coat, low energy, joint stiffness, dental problems, organ disease, mitochondrial dysfunction, cancer and accelerated aging.
The Mineral Depletion Crisis No One Talks About
Why most dogs lack essential minerals:
In a perfect world, your dog would get all the minerals they need from fresh, whole food grown in mineral-rich soil. But modern agriculture has broken the soil mineral cycle.
Here's what happened:
- Originally, nutrient recycling was flawless, ensuring that plants, animals and also minerals return back to the soil, where they came from.
- Industrial farming strips soil of minerals year after year.
- Food is transported thousands of miles instead of being consumed locally.
- Minerals leave the soil but never return to the same location to replenish the soil.
- This is why even the most "premium" dog foods are depleted of minerals.
The result? A mineral-depleted food supply affecting the health and wellbeing of both humans and our dogs. You can feed the highest-quality diet available, but if the soil it came from was depleted, your dog is still running on half empty.
Why GreenMin Solves This Problem
GreenMin doesn't rely on modern agriculture. It comes from two superb natural sources that are rich and complete in minerals:
Alga Calcarea absorbs the full spectrum of minerals from the ocean — nature's mineral reservoir that has never been depleted by farming.
Spirulina thrives in mineral-rich alkaline water, concentrating nutrients in a way land-based plants can no longer achieve.
Together, they deliver what soil-grown food once provided but can no longer guarantee.
Modern Unsustainable Cycle
Industrial agriculture strips minerals from the soil, ships food thousands of miles away, and never returns nutrients to where they came from. The result: every generation of crops grown in that soil becomes more and more nutritionally depleted than the last.
Natural Sustainable Cycle
In nature, animals graze, their waste returns nutrients to the soil, plants regrow with full mineral content, and the cycle continues indefinitely. GreenMin bypasses modern agriculture entirely by sourcing from the ocean — nature's original mineral reservoir that has never been depleted.
The Two Superfoods That Make GreenMin Complete
Why California Spirulina?
Because it's the most protein-dense whole food source on Earth.
Spirulina delivers 60-70% amino-acids and protein by dry weight — higher than any meat, fish, or plant. But it's not just about quantity. This blue-green algae provides all essential amino acids in a highly digestible form (85%+ absorption in just 18 hours), plus a powerhouse of bioactive phytonutrients including phycocyanin — the brilliant blue "antioxidant gold" that gives Spirulina its color and its cellular-level healing properties.
What it does for your dog:
- Provides complete protein for muscle maintenance and repair
- Supports immune function and reduces inflammation
- Gently detoxifies heavy metals while nourishing at the cellular level
- Delivers chlorophyll, beta-carotene, and omega fatty acids in their most bioavailable form
Why California matters: We source exclusively from a top California based producer — never China. Every batch is tested for purity, and the controlled growing conditions ensure consistent quality and safety.
Why Brazilian Alga Calcarea?
Because it's the most complete mineral source on Earth — and your dog's body knows the difference.
This rare red marine algae doesn't just contain calcium. It contains 20+ essential minerals naturally absorbed from the ocean over its lifecycle. Clinical studies show that the body absorbs over 80% of the useful minerals from Alga Calcarea, compared to less than 10% from synthetic calcium sources like calcium carbonate. That's not a small difference — it's the difference between nutrition that actually works and nutrition that passes right through.
What it does for your dog:
- Builds and maintains strong bones, teeth, and skeletal structure
- Supports mineral balance at the cellular level (all 37 trillion chemical reactions per second need minerals to function)
- Naturally pushes out toxic heavy metals by occupying receptor sites they would otherwise fill
- Reduces inflammation and supports digestion and organ health
Why Brazilian Alga Calcarea matters: Hand-harvested from the pristine shores of South America, USDA certified organic, and tested to be free of pesticides and heavy metals. This isn't just any calcium source — it's a complete mineral complex your dog's body was designed to use.
Safety & Testing: Zero Compromise
It is common to see companies cutting corners on testing to save money. We take the opposite approach. Every batch of GreenMin goes through several tests before it reaches your dog’s bowl — because premium products deserve premium quality control.
Our 3-Layer Safety Protocol:
1. Supplier Certification
We source ingredients only from certified suppliers with documented origin and clearly defined quality standards. Our Alga Calcarea is USDA certified organic. Our premium spirulina comes from California producer with rigorous growing protocols. We will never source from China and countries known to tolerate widespread animal abuse or have lax safety standards.
2. Independent Lab Testing
Every raw ingredient batch is tested by third-party laboratories for purity, potency, and contamination — including heavy metals, pesticides, and microbial activity. We test the ingredients and then we also test the final product.
3. Glass Packaging for Purity
GreenMin is packaged in recycled glass, not plastic. Why? Because chemicals from plastic containers leach into powder, contaminating the very supplements meant to improve health. Glass is inert, protecting your and your dog’s health, the integrity of every ingredient and also the environment.
The result: Exceptional, human-grade ingredients you could take yourself, tested multiple times, and delivered in packaging that says we truly care.
Supplementing healthy minerals pushes out heavy metals from your dog's body
37 trillion chemical reactions take place in the body every second. Missing minerals halt proper metabolic and organ functions.
Mineral deficiency causes dehydration as your dog’s body can’t maintain the right osmotic balance. When the good minerals are deficient, heavy metals that compete with them are more likely to settle in the body.
The "Airplane Seat" Principle:
Think of it like assigned seating on an airplane. Your dog's cells have specific receptor sites where minerals need to "sit" to do their jobs. Calcium sits here. Magnesium sits there. Iron has its spot. Zinc has another.
When those seats are empty because of mineral deficiency, heavy metals like lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic can sit down instead. They bind to the same receptors, blocking healthy function and accumulating over time.
The good news: When you flood the body with a complete spectrum of healthy minerals — like those in GreenMin — they fill those empty seats first. And even if any seats are already occupied by heavy metals, the beneficial minerals will claim their rightful seat, and push the heavy metals out.
This is why complete mineral supplementation isn't just about adding nutrients. It’s also about protecting your dog from the toxic burden of modern life.
What Happens When Minerals Are Missing:
- Metabolic slowdown - Without minerals, the 37 sextillion chemical reactions that power life can't proceed properly
- Dehydration - Mineral deficiency disrupts osmotic balance, disturbing cell hydration.
- Heavy metal accumulation - Empty receptor sites become occupied by toxins instead of nutrients
- System-wide dysfunction - From bones to brain to immune system, every organ suffers
The chart below shows exactly which minerals your dog needs — and what happens when each one is deficient.
GreenMin Mineral Profile
| Mineral | Function | Deficiency |
|---|---|---|
Calcium
|
Calcium is a very important mineral for metabolism, making up about one to two percent of body weight. In addition, calcium manages acid/base balance in the bloodstream and is used to help control muscle and nerve function. | Convulsions Decreased bone mineralization Decreased growth Lack of appetite Lameness Loose teeth Muscle spasms Panting Spontaneous fractures Uncoordinated or stiff gait Vomiting Weakness |
Iron
|
Iron is a vital mineral for immune system function, treating anemia, boosting hemoglobin, and bringing oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body through red blood cells. Iron’s role is to create energy from nutrients. | Anemia Decreased growth Lethargy Rapid breathing Rough coat Weakness |
Boron
|
Boron regulates the parathyroid hormone, influences the metabolism of calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium. | Decreased growth Low hematocrit |
Bromine
|
Bromine affects the functioning of the central nervous system, has a role in both digestion and reproduction and activates certain enzymes in the body. | Decreased life expectancy Reduced hemoglobin |
Sodium
|
Supports healthy nerve and muscle function as well as maintains fluid and electrolyte balance. | Anorexia Decreased growth Fatigue Hair loss Inability to maintain water balance |
Copper
|
Copper is a trace mineral that plays an important role in metabolism, largely because it allows many critical enzymes to function properly. It helps the body utilize iron, maintains bones, connective tissue and thyroid function, along with reducing tissue damage from free radicals and preserving the myelin sheath that surrounds nerves. | Anemia Bone and joint disease Cardiac arrhythmia Difficulty breathing Hair loss and skin discoloration Imbalanced LDL and HDL cholesterol levels Skin sores and ulceration Susceptibility to infections Vascular weakness |
Zinc
|
Zinc is a trace mineral necessary for the functioning of more than 300 different enzymes and plays a vital role in a large number of biological processes. Within the body, zinc is distributed in the muscle, bone, skin, kidney, liver, pancreas, retina, prostate and particularly in red and white blood cells. It regulates gene expression, protein folding and immunity. Zinc is also a cofactor for many enzymes. | Decreased immunity Diarrhea Low fertility in males Nail deformities Poor growth Vomiting |
Vanadium
|
Vanadium is active in many chemical processes in the body. It plays a part in energy production, metabolism and helps to build healthy bones and teeth. | Diabetes Hypoglycemia Obesity |
Sulphur
|
Sulphur is an essential building block of proteins and is required for all cell activity. It is needed for collagen formation to maintain healthy skin, along with hair and nails. Sulphur also plays an important role in bile secretions and detoxification processes. | Bone and joint disease Circulatory problems Inflammation Nerve disorders |
Silicon
|
Silicon is required for the synthesis of bones and connective tissues such as tendons and cartilage. It also helps prevent the absorption of aluminum in the brain and body and plays a role in blood circulation and pressure. | Bone loss Digestive disturbances Hair loss Poor bone development |
Selenium
|
Selenium is a component in the amino acids cysteine and methionine. Selenium functions as an important factor in antioxidant enzymes, helps protect cells from oxidative damage and ensures cell growth and survival. It also enables the thyroid to produce thyroid hormone and helps to lower the risk on joint inflammation. | Discoloration of the hair or skin Pancreas degeneration Weakness or pain in muscles |
Potassium
|
Potassium plays an important role in neuromuscular activity, muscle contraction, strength and nerve impulse conduction. It also helps to maintain electrolyte balance. | Cardiovascular abnormalities Muscle cramps and pain Weakness |
Phosphorus
|
Phosphorus is an essential nutrient required for cell development and energy storage. The main function of phosphorus is in the formation of bones and teeth. It also promotes protein synthesis for growth, maintenance and repair of cells and tissues, muscle movement, heart, kidney and nerve function, and production of ATP (an energy transfer and storage mechanism within the body). | Anemia Loss of appetite Muscle weakness Poor bone formation Rickets |
Nickel
|
Nickel is essential for certain chemical processes in the body. | Altered glucose levels Hormonal imbalance Slowed growth |
Molybdenum
|
Certain enzymes require molybdenum to work properly. Molybdenum helps process sulfur-containing amino acids such as methionine and cysteine. | Coma Decrease in uric acid Poor dental health |
Manganese
|
Manganese enables the absorption of other key nutrients such as biotin, thiamin, ascorbic acid and choline and helps to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. It is also important for bone health, blood sugar levels, thyroid function and nerve health. | Abnormal metabolism Hair depigmentation Low cholesterol Poor bone growth Reproductive difficulties Skin rash |
Magnesium
|
Magnesium is what allows muscles to relax after contraction. Proper nerve function and blood pressure regulation also depends on magnesium. Other functions include building and maintaining healthy bones and regulating vitamin D levels. | Elevated blood pressure Heart arrhythmia Imbalanced blood sugar levels Increased heart rate Muscle weakness or spasm Nausea Weak bones |
Iodine
|
Iodine supports metabolism and is required for healthy thyroid function. | Hypothyroidism Lethargy Recurrent infections Sensitivity to cold |
Chromium
|
Chromium is an essential trace element that plays a role in normal blood sugar and insulin production and helps to maintain normal cholesterol levels. | Frequent urination High blood pressure High blood sugar levels Insulin resistance |
Chloride
|
Chloride works with sodium and potassium to keep body fluid levels balanced and maintains proper blood volume, blood pressure and pH of body fluids. It also aids in the digestion and absorption of many nutrients. | Lack of appetite Lethargy Muscle weakness Seizures Vomiting |

GreenMin has the same safety margin as wholesome food. There have not been any known side effects or contraindications. For ill and depleted animals introduce GreenMin gradually over one week. Please consult with your veterinarian before using this supplement for dog’s on NSAIDs, blood thinning herbs or medications, or dogs that suffer from bleeding disorders.
How should I introduce these supplements to my dog's diet?
For more information on how to introduce our essential supplements to your dog try our Healthy Dog Tool HERE.
What should I expect when starting GreenMin?
Gentle detox is expected when starting GreenMin. It is not uncommon for mild digestive upset, or other detoxifying symptoms to appear for the first few days on GreenMin. These reactions are perfectly normal and to be expected. They will usually disappear within a few days as the body rids itself of some of the harmful toxins and starts absorbing the minerals effectively.
My recent jar looks different? Is there something wrong with it?
We manufacture GreenMin in small batches, from grower-sourced, naturally-produced materials. Because the ingredients are unprocessed, a natural variation in color and texture is to be expected.
