FULVIC MINERAL COMPLEX

Vital to a host of cellular functions, trace minerals can promote optimal cell function, providing a powerful delivery system for nutrients from food, vitamins, enzymes, herbs, and other supplements. While vitamins are important, minerals are essential and needed to work synergistically with vitamins to support whole-body wellness.

Trace minerals can help with oxygen delivery to cells, amino acid metabolism, cell growth, and differentiation, enzyme formation, immune response, maintaining bone density, circulatory functions, brain oxygenation, muscle response, the transmission of messages through the nervous system, the utilization of nutrients in food, and more.

Think quality, concentration, purity & value. We have partnered with the best fulvic provider in the world. Their proprietary water-based, multi-step extraction method yields a pure, potent fulvic acid concentrate ranging from 15-22% (2x stronger than most products on the market). To maintain the molecular bioactivity and full spectrum of organic acids, trace minerals, and electrolytes, the raw material is not subjected to chemicals, or high pressure or heat. Methods that are common in the industry.

In addition, we don’t water down the final product and package it in a big 32oz bottle as a way to increase perceived value.

Our Fulvic Mineral Complex is mined from a rare shale deposit of which there is only a handful in the world. The shale is composed of nutrient-rich, prehistoric plant matter high in both fulvic acid and trace minerals.

Other trace mineral products come from less rich sources such as leonardite (aka coal) or The Great Salt Lake and may have impurities like high levels of carbon or chloride (see here).

Many companies water their products down. An easy way to spot these is to check the color — concentrated fulvic acid should have a deep dark, nearly opaque color.

Note: just because it is dark, doesn’t mean it has a high level of fulvic acid, it could have more carbon. Do you trust the company? Ask them for test results.

From the cellular to the systemic level, minerals (both macro, and trace) are crucial to our health. Simply put we can not function without them.

And while the body needs trace minerals in small amounts, they are still critical to our overall health and well-being. Trace minerals include sulphur, chromium, copper, zinc, iodine, manganese, selenium and many others, all of which can be difficult to get from a typical diet.

While each mineral has a specific job and purpose, no individual mineral functions as well without the others being present. Fulvic acid helps deliver these minerals in a balanced way.

There have been no clinical trials to date that have examined the effects of varying the daily serving of fulvic acid and associated health benefits. Data extrapolated from animal experiments indicate that 40 mg of fulvic acid per day (100 mg/day Fulvic Mineral Powder that contains 40 mg Fulvic Acid) is an optimal serving giving maximal health benefits.

Studies indicate that higher servings of fulvic acid do not translate into additional health benefits. Toxicological studies performed in rats and mice suggest that fulvic acid is remarkably non-toxic. Rats fed 2 grams/kg bw/day fulvic acid following 90 days of continuous exposure had no observed adverse effect level NOEAL (no-observed-adverse-effect level)*

So, in essence the 22.8 mg Fulvic Acid (as Fulvic Mineral Complex) is a safe and effective dose. At this dose a person could also take two servings per day for maximal health benefits if desired. 40 mg or 45.6 mg fulvic acid per day is a safe dose. Fulvic acid is remarkably non-toxic based on toxicological studies.

*The no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) denotes the level of exposure of an organism, found by experiment or observation, at which there is no biologically or statistically significant increase in the frequency or severity of any adverse effects of the tested protocol. In drug development, the NOAEL of a new drug is assessed in laboratory animals, such as mice, prior to initiation of human trials in order to establish a safe clinical starting dose in humans.  

The majority of people who take fulvic minerals feel a more consistent flow of daily energy and endurance within the first few days. After several weeks, you might experience healthier hair, skin, nails, and teeth, improvements in the digestive system and a reduction in stress and aches and pains. Since FMC supports all of the functions in your body (on a cellular level) you will benefit from an increased absorption of minerals from the foods and supplements you take on a daily basis. FMC is a powerful, natural antioxidant, offering a “trickle-charge” of electrical energy which is vital to all living cells.

Yes.

There are significant health benefits to taking fulvic acid minerals, which are derived from prehistoric plant materials, and other elemental minerals found in fulvic shale. Our product is safe to take every day, and we recommend it. Since Fulvic Mineral Complex contains trace amounts of over 90 nutrients there is no risk of getting too much.

The amount of fulvic acid in FMC ranges from roughly 6 to 13%, and humic acid is under 1%. This is based on the Lamar Standardized Test, the gold standard. Why the range? It comes from a natural deposit, approximately 32 million years old. We use purified water to extract it from shale, and that's it. We don't add anything or remove anything.
