Marine Plasma

The marine plasma says hypertonic is simply sea water harvested and filtered under very precise conditions. Our supplier Ibiza Agua de Mar collects sea water at 25 meters deep, off the coast of Ibiza in a UNESCO-listed area.

With respect to the harvest, here are the different chemical physico parameters measured in the search for an optimal place for the harvest of hypertonic marine plasma, first on the radar with reading currents and according to the marine weather (sale, swell, rain...) and then by local measurement of these different parameters: Sea water taste, dissolved O2 level, PH level, oxidation level (ORP), salinity level (TDS), conductivity level (PSU), alkalimetric title (TA), Pression.

It is the empirical practice of the harvesters and the reading of the various measuring instruments that allows to decide the best complex combination of these measures between them to decide whether the harvest is triggered on the site or whether another place is sought.

You can use marine plasma in various ways:

💠 For therapeutic purposes, ideally consume the isotonic plasma in the morning on an empty stomach. To do this, take 1/4 hypertonic plasma and mix it with 3/4 spring water or filtered water to obtain an isotonic plasma solution.

💠 For culinary purposes, use our hypertonic plasma in your recipes for lacto-fermented vegetables. You can find more details on integrating it into your kitchen in our blog articles:

💠 In your beauty routine, integrate marine plasma to firm and remineralize your skin and beautify your hair. Read our blog article on this topic: Marine plasma for beautifying and caring for my skin?

There are two differences:

💠 The price is 10 times lower: our ultrafiltered marine plasma in glass bottles costs €22 per liter, while ampoules with hypertonic marine plasma or Quinton plasma cost about €220 per liter, which is 10 times more expensive! The more complex distribution chain (distributors, resellers, retailers...) and higher production costs explain this difference. The product is completely equivalent, if not superior, for the marine plasma from Ibiza, which is harvested with a boat and numerous parameters are measured during each harvest, as explained on our product page hypertonic marine plasma.

💠 The heating: the ampoules are actually passed in front of several rows of giant Bunsen burners to be hot-sealed, and therefore undergo mandatory heating, our bottled seawater is cold sterilized, at less than 6°C.

💠 Seawater is a generic term that encompasses the various forms of collected and filtered seawater. The term "marine plasma" or Quinton plasma refers to seawater collected in areas with intense planktonic and marine activity. This 100% seawater form is referred to as the hypertonic form.

In our shop, we exclusively offer hypertonic marine plasma to enable you to save money by making your own isotonic marine plasma, as it is essentially the same liquid, only one is diluted and the other is pure.

💠 In fact, the formula for making isotonic marine plasma from hypertonic marine plasma is as follows: Mix 1/4 hypertonic marine plasma + 3/4 spring water. (for example, for 1L isotonic plasma = 250 mL hypertonic + 750 mL spring water).

💠 All our seawater-based products are inspired by the works of René Quinton, a French biologist born on December 15, 1866, in Chaumes-en-Brie, France, and who passed away on July 9, 1925, in Grasse. As an emblematic figure of biology and natural medicine in the early 20th century, his intellectual and scientific career stands out as a pioneer in the research of the therapeutic applications and healing properties of seawater.
René Quinton studied in Paris, where he developed a keen interest in the natural sciences and particularly in the phenomenon of homeostasis in living organisms.

💠 His most famous work is undoubtedly the discovery and development of "Quinton Plasma". Through his studies, he postulated that isotonic seawater, which resembles blood plasma in terms of mineralization, could be used to restore the physiological balance in humans and other mammals. This idea was revolutionary at a time when blood transfusions were still in the experimental stage.
In 1904, René Quinton published "L'eau de mer, milieu organique", a work in which he presents his theories and experimental results, demonstrating the positive effects of seawater on various pathologies. This publication marked a turning point and brought him recognition and criticism within the scientific community.

💠 As a passionate advocate of his discoveries, René Quinton founded seawater dispensaries where seawater was administered to treat diseases such as cholera, tuberculosis, and various digestive and skin disorders. These clinics achieved remarkable success, not only in France but also internationally, with the opening of similar centers in Egypt, Argentina, and even as far as China.

💠 The international influence of René Quinton was evident through the adoption of his seawater therapies in several countries. His approach inspired researchers and practitioners worldwide, and even today, "Quinton Plasma" is widely used in alternative medicine and naturopathy. Despite the initial controversies and skepticism of the traditional scientific community, Quinton's works have stood the test of time, thanks to their innovative nature and practical application in numerous natural health protocols.
