At the young age of thirteen, Maria Sibylla Merian had already begun her systematic entomological research with a study of the silk worm, a description of which opens her second book, entitled Der Raupen wunderbare Verwandlung ... (The Caterpillar's Wondrous Metamorphosis ...). Motivated by reports on the flora and fauna of Surinam published by missionaries of the pietistic Labadist church, which she joined in 1685, she undertook a perilous journey to the tropics. Following her return home, she had her insect studies - life-sized drawings of insects on parchment - engraved in copper, adding descriptions of each species and its habitat. Four editions of these large-format engravings were published between 1719 and 1771. The epochal accomplishment of the painter, engraver and naturalist Maria Sibylla Merian is to be found in the artistic perfection of her presentation of the results of meticulous entomological research, decades before the appearance of Linné's Systema Naturae in 1735. Following the seminal studies by Elisabeth Rücker, this publication is the first comprehensive monograph on the work of Maria Sibylla Merian. It focuses not only on her artistic and scientific achievements but on her role as a publisher and entrepreneur as well. New material on the life and work of this extraordinary artist is provided in the form of unpublished letters and 40 previously unpublished water-colors from her St. Petersburg sketchbook. (German edition available ISBN 3-7757-1226- 7) The artist: Maria Sibylla Merian (Frankfurt a.M., 1647; Amsterdam, 1717). Daughter of the publisher Matthäus Merian. Trained in art by her stepfather, the still-life painter Jakob Marrel. First series of copper engravings of flower motifs as a book of models in 1675; Volume I of Der Raupen wunderbare Verwandlung und sonderbare Blumennahrung (The Caterpillar's Wondrous Metamorphosis and Strange Flower Nourishment); journey to Surinam (Dutch Guyana) in 1679; first edition of Metamorphosis Insectorum Surinamensium published in 1705.Shipping Notes

Healthy Sea plant magnesium
I’ve been researching magnesium and ran across the benefits of magnesium from sea plants. Since many people lack the proper amounts of magnesium this type of magnesium seems healthier than magnesium from the earth.

You need magnesium
It helps with so many things, and most of us don’t get enough.
Do your research, and make your choice. This is a good starter option, but that is just my opinion.

Quality product
I’ve been taking the Ocean Magnesium 200mg Aquamin with B6 for a little over a month now, and I’ve really enjoyed adding it into my routine. I’ve tried several types of magnesium supplements in the past, but this one stood out to me for a couple of reasons: it’s made with Aquamin (derived from sea minerals), it’s vegan, and it comes in an easy-to-take capsule form.
The first thing I noticed was the packaging. The bottle is sturdy, seals well, and the label is clear and easy to read. I like that it’s straightforward about the ingredients—no unnecessary additives or confusing blends. The capsules themselves are an average size, not too big or hard to swallow, which I appreciate since I take them at night before bed.
As far as digestibility, this has been one of the gentlest magnesium options I’ve tried. Some brands I’ve used in the past left me with an upset stomach, but I haven’t had that issue here. I also appreciate that the capsules don’t have a strong aftertaste or odd smell, which has sometimes been the case with other supplements.
I also really like that this formula includes vitamin B6. Even though I can’t measure exactly what difference that makes, I like knowing that it’s formulated with complementary nutrients in mind. It feels more thoughtfully designed than a basic one-ingredient pill.
Another nice thing is that the bottle provides a full 60-count supply, which lasts me two months since the serving size is just one capsule per day. That makes it more cost-effective than other brands where you need to take multiple pills.
I can’t make specific claims about the effects, but I will say that I enjoy having this as part of my daily wellness routine. It’s simple, clean, and feels like a product I can stick with long-term. I also like knowing it comes from a whole food, plant-based source, which aligns with how I try to approach my overall diet.
Overall, I’d recommend Ocean Magnesium to anyone looking for a well-made, vegan-friendly magnesium option. The capsules are easy to take, gentle, and thoughtfully formulated. It’s one of the few supplements I’ve tried that I look forward to continuing with regularly.
