And why protecting our oceans is directly tied to protecting your gut health.
Every April, we’re reminded of the urgency and opportunity that Earth Month represents. It’s a time to reconnect with the planet, reflect on the impact of our choices, and commit to doing better, not just as individuals but as a brand.
At RefluxRaft, we take that commitment seriously. We rely on the ocean every day. That’s why we’re proud to donate $1 for every bottle sold to support ocean conservation efforts this April. It’s a small action with ripple effects we hope will travel far beyond the shoreline.
Why the Ocean Matters (More Than You Might Think)
Oceans cover over 70% of the Earth’s surface. Our oceans regulate the climate, generate oxygen, support biodiversity, and provide food for billions of people. They’re also home to one of RefluxRaft’s key ingredients—sodium alginate, a natural compound derived from seaweed that helps form the soothing barrier our product is known for.
But the health of our oceans is in crisis.
-
Pollution, especially from plastics and industrial waste, is choking marine ecosystems.
-
Overfishing is pushing species to the brink.
-
Climate change is warming ocean waters, bleaching coral reefs, and disrupting life for countless marine animals.
-
Kelp forests, vital not just for marine life but for carbon absorption, are disappearing at alarming rates.
In short: the oceans really need our help.
How We’re Taking Action
Throughout the month of April, $1 will be donated to ocean conservation efforts for every bottle of RefluxRaft purchased. This year, we're proud to support Oceana, one of the largest international organizations focused solely on protecting the world’s oceans. Their work spans policy change, habitat protection, and restoring biodiversity, and we’re honored to contribute.
What Ocean Health Has to Do With Gut Health
It might seem like ocean conservation and digestive health are two separate things, but they’re more connected than you think.
-
Alginates (like those used in RefluxRaft) come from brown seaweed, which thrives in healthy kelp forests. When we protect marine ecosystems, we help sustain these natural resources.
-
The ocean’s ability to regulate climate directly impacts the quality and availability of natural ingredients, food systems, and even global health patterns.
-
Just like our product forms a physical barrier to support your body, we want to be part of building a barrier of protection around the oceans, keeping them safe, sustainable, and thriving.
What You Can Do
Every choice counts, and we’re proud to make it easy to support a cleaner planet while caring for your health:
✔️ Buy a bottle of RefluxRaft this April, and we’ll donate $1 for each one sold.
✔️ Choose ocean-safe products that minimize harmful chemicals and plastic packaging.
✔️ Educate yourself and others on how our everyday actions affect marine life.
✔️ Support organizations like Oceana that are doing the hard, necessary work of protecting our oceans.
This Isn’t Just a Campaign. It’s a Commitment.
Our Earth Month initiative is just one part of a bigger promise: to operate responsibly, support sustainability, and give back to the planet that sustains us all. Whether you’re managing reflux or simply making more conscious choices, you’re part of this movement, too.
