History

In 1998 the company opened its first office in Toronto, Canada. [6] [5]

In 1999 Erik Megrabyan partnered with Leonid Lapp and became a co-owner of Coral Club. Rolf Eriksson, the owner of Alka-Mine worldwide, transferred the exclusive rights to sell Coral-Mine (Alka-Mine) to Coral Club the same year. [4]

In 1999 Royal Body Care, which in 1996 acquired Light Force, founded by Christopher Hills, became the partner of Coral Club. [4]

In November 2000 Coral Club increased its market presence.

In 2008 despite the crisis, the turnover of the Coral Club continued to exhibit steady income growth compared to 2007. In the same year, the company's owners, Leonid Lapp and Erik Megrabyan, arranged the development of the products under their brand exclusively. Coral Club distributor partners increased by 25% in 2008. [7]

In 2020 Coral Club owned 288 offline stores and delivered products to 175 countries. The product range includes more than 170 health, beauty, and home products made in the USA, Canada, Germany, Armenia, Norway, France, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and Russia. The company also develops programs for maintaining a healthy body. Currently, the assortment includes 11 kits for holistic nutritional support and two programs. [8]

In 2021–2022, Coral Club carried out three major online projects and created its own platform for online events. The total coverage of the company's digital projects amounted to about 3 million people. [9]

Business Model

The company also operates an academy to improve the skills of partners. [11] [12]

Research

Goncharuk et al. studied the effect of Coral Club’s method of activating water with coral calcium on the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) of drinking water. The study found that treating water with coral calcium shifts its ORP into the negative region, reaching values as low as –200 mV. For example, water with an initial ORP of 150 mV can drop to –50 mV after treatment. This shift aligns with the optimal ORP values for the intercellular fluids of body tissues, reducing the energy required by cells to adjust ORP and allowing more energy to be directed towards intracellular processes.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Calcium cycle</span>

The calcium cycle is a transfer of calcium between dissolved and solid phases. There is a continuous supply of calcium ions into waterways from rocks, organisms, and soils. Calcium ions are consumed and removed from aqueous environments as they react to form insoluble structures such as calcium carbonate and calcium silicate, which can deposit to form sediments or the exoskeletons of organisms. Calcium ions can also be utilized biologically, as calcium is essential to biological functions such as the production of bones and teeth or cellular function. The calcium cycle is a common thread between terrestrial, marine, geological, and biological processes. Calcium moves through these different media as it cycles throughout the Earth. The marine calcium cycle is affected by changing atmospheric carbon dioxide due to ocean acidification.
