Our Story

Paul Schneider Jr., founder of Max-Well, shares why our ionic sea minerals and sea vegetable products support whole-body health.

After 18 years as missionaries in Ghana, we returned to Michigan in 1999. In 2004, I read Dr. Maynard Murray's Sea Energy Agriculture and learned how plants grown with sea minerals deliver better nutrition. Farmers using ocean-derived minerals reported fewer pests, longer shelf life, and richer flavor. I began looking for a more concentrated, affordable sea mineral product.

In 2006, I became the USA distributor for GroPal—a concentrated sea mineral liquid. Growers finally saw the yield gains Dr. Murray had described.

A dream led to the name: Maximum Wellness. In 2006, I learned about an immune-support formula, but the timing wasn't right. By 2009, I began donating it globally. Pastor Jumba in Kenya helped launch our first clinical study.

In Kenya (2010), we studied 90 children. Those given ionic sea minerals alone showed results comparable to the combined formula. Sea minerals proved essential.

Nine children still needed support. We added SeaVeg (sea vegetables) to their regimen. Within three months, all had recovered.

A 2013 study with 350 participants and five sea vegetable varieties showed 90% lost all symptoms. Results are documented at AidTheChildren.com.

Scott Kennedy showed that sea vegetables support heavy metal detox. In 2016, we developed Ocean Treasure: nine sea vegetables plus powdered ionic sea minerals. It supports immune health and heavy metal elimination.

Research suggests viruses rely on heavy metals to replicate. Ocean Treasure provides trace minerals and phytonutrients from kelp and other sea vegetables. Four capsules deliver the equivalent of a concentrated trace mineral dose plus ocean-grown nutrients.

We make no disease claims. Ocean Treasure simply supplies the body with nutrients that support natural healing.

Dr. Richard Olree’s heavy metals testing showed remarkable results after years of sea vegetable use.

Ionic Sea Minerals is purified Australian ocean water concentrated to deliver 76 trace minerals. Magnesium supports colon health and regularity. A teaspoon daily (under $5/month when bought by the gallon) can be mixed into juice or chocolate milk to mask the taste until the body adjusts.

Our powder form delivers a full teaspoon of ionic sea minerals in four capsules—no bitter taste. Ideal for anyone who wants trace mineral benefits without the liquid.

SeaBoost Cream blends sea minerals with nourishing ingredients for hydration and skin health. Customers report smoother texture and improved appearance. A little goes a long way.

Soothing Sea Soak combines Dead Sea salt, Epsom salt, ionic sea minerals, oat flour, rice flour, milk powder, grapeseed oil, and vanilla. Designed for relaxation, hydration, and tension relief.
