How It Works

Trace Minerals

Minerals play a foundational role in our bodies, supporting a myriad of biological processes day in and day out. Minerals are categorized into two groups — macro and trace. Both groups are critical for health.

Deep oceans and seas provide a rich source of trace minerals. These minerals—often called ionic due to their positive or negative charge—readily bond with water and are easily absorbed.

Trace minerals play crucial roles in maintaining overall health and well-being. They are essential for vital bodily functions like metabolic reactions and cellular signaling.

Trace minerals are also required for important enzyme functions involved in energy metabolism, oxygen transport, antioxidant protection, hormone production, and neurological functions, just to name a few.

Trace minerals are ideally obtained from food, but trace minerals are only present in food if the soil is not depleted, which is an increasing problem with modern farming practices. Food processing further depletes these nutrients which can lead to less than optimal levels of in the body.

Meanwhile, stress, activity and a poor diet can all lead to mineral imbalances. Some experts believe that as many as 90% of Americans have a mineral deficiency or imbalance.

Fulvic Acid

Fulvic acid is added to this formula to help boost vitality, scavenge free-radicals, increase absorption of minerals, and provide immune support. Fulvic acid, a humic substance formed by the decomposition of plant material by soil microorganisms, occurs naturally in soil, peat and marine sediments. Fulvic acid provides a broad spectrum of trace minerals that are easily absorbed and helps increase the absorption rate and absorbability of all minerals in the body. Fulvic acid also supplies electrolytes, enhances nutrient transport, catalyzes enzyme reactions and increases assimilation. Plus, fulvic acid has been well studied for its beneficial effects for bolstering the body's immune defenses.

Açai

Açai berry concentrate provides valuable antioxidants, amino acids, anthocyanins, essential fatty acids and vitamin C. Açai berries contain more antioxidants than other commonly eaten berries. Açai berries are an abundant source of anthocyanin, a powerful antioxidant that may improve blood flow to the brain to promote brain health and enhance memory. Anthocyanins also support heart and nervous system health, energy levels, and immune system function. Açai berries grow in clusters on the açai palm in the rainforests of Central and South America. Açai has long been an important food source for Amazon region natives.

Grape Skin Extract

Grape skin extract is a rich source of antioxidants, including resveratrol. Studies indicate that resveratrol is a potent antioxidant with promising heart-health benefits that may be the answer to the "French Paradox"—despite their high intake of fat, the French have a low incidence of heart issues. Resveratrol helps to maintain LDL and triglyceride levels already in the normal range.
