Trace minerals occur in tiny amounts or traces. Nonetheless,
they play a major role in health. Organic Life Minerals is an
instantly absorbing liquid trace mineral formulation in a base
of naturally pure glacier water. It tastes great because it is
sweetened with the natural herb stevia. Containing 70 fully
soluble ionic* minerals, two capfuls easily mix with water or
juice.
Even minute portions of these minerals can create an
effect on the body. They are essential to the assimilation and
utilization of vitamins and other nutrients. They aid in
digestion and provide a catalyst for many hormones, enzymes and
essential body functions and reactions.
Several trace
minerals-copper, chromium, cobalt, manganese and molybdenum-are
firmly established as being essential to the body. These are
needed for certain chemical reactions within the organism and no
other elements can replace them.
Many trace minerals act as
coenzymes, meaning that they are catalysts in chemical
reactions. They also play a part in the body's production of
neurotransmitters-biochemicals that send messages through the
nervous system. Some of these minerals are involved in the
production of major hormones secreted by the thyroid and adrenal
glands. Others impact the body's ability to burn carbohydrates
and fat for energy. Still others relate to the formation of
molecules into bones, blood vessels, skin and teeth.
Along
with food and supplements, trace minerals help the body to grow,
reproduce and maintain itself over the years.
While many of
these trace minerals have been naturally available in food,
aggressive farming has deprived a large number of our formerly
rich soils of their mineral content. The erosion of our top
soils has washed away important minerals and trace minerals into
the oceans and seas. Synthetic fertilizers applied to exhausted
soils bind many of the trace minerals, making them unavailable
to plant life.
While these trace minerals are found in
Organic Life Vitamins, Organic Life Minerals provides them in a
more concentrated form.
*An ionic mineral is an element that
has a charge, either positive or negative. On a molecular level,
this means the element has either one too many or one too few
electrons. This unstable ionic state allows the element to bond
readily with water, making it possible for the body to absorb
it.
