Frequently asked questions about oysters

Why are oysters sustainable?
Oysters are considered sustainable because they are filter feeders that improve water quality by removing plankton and other organic particles from the water. This process reduces turbidity and supports biodiversity in marine ecosystems. They do not require additional feed, such as fishmeal or grains, to grow, which makes their ecological footprint minimal. Sustainable oyster farming takes into account the protection of natural habitats and the prevention of overfishing.

Why are oysters relatively expensive?
Oysters are relatively expensive because they have a slow growth cycle; it takes 2 to 4 years for them to be fully grown. Moreover, they require specific cultivation conditions, such as clean water and a suitable temperature. The labor-intensive harvesting process and strict quality controls also contribute to the higher costs. Wild oysters are often even pricier due to their limited availability and the complexity of harvesting.

Why are zinc and copper so important?
The balance between zinc and copper is essential because these minerals compete with each other for absorption in the body. An excess of zinc can cause a copper deficiency, which is crucial for collagen production and iron transport. At the same time, zinc supports enzyme activity, the immune system, and hormone production, such as testosterone. The unique 10:1 ratio in oysters helps optimize this balance.

What makes the nutritional value of oysters so unique?
The nutritional value of oysters is impressive. They contain an optimal ratio of zinc to copper (10:1), which is important for a healthy metabolism and the balance of these minerals in the body. In addition, oysters provide essential amino acids and high-quality proteins. They are also low in calories, making them ideal for people who watch their diet.
