Herbal Trace Minerals
Overview
Feed your body the important trace minerals missing in the Western diet.
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 a problem with modern farming practices. Food processing further depletes these nutrients which can lead to less than optimal levels of in the body.
Herbal Trace Minerals contains botanical-sourced minerals that come from both land and sea, so you get plenty of these important trace nutrients.
The deep roots of Dandelion and Alfalfa plants absorb trace minerals from the bountiful soils in which they are grown.
These trace nutrients are often lacking in common, shallow-rooted vegetables preferred in Western diets.
Likewise, Kelp, a sea vegetable (or seaweed), is a nutritional powerhouse loaded with vitamins, minerals and trace minerals absorbed from the ocean.
Herbal Trace Minerals provides vital trace nutrients that are beneficial for glandular, digestive and intestinal functions.

How It Works
Kelp
Kelp is a type of algae (or sea vegetable) that is highly nutritious and loaded with vitamins, minerals, and trace nutrients, including iodine, potassium and zinc. Iodine is an essential trace mineral that supports glandular function, metabolism and energy levels. Kelp is particularly important to the thyroid, a gland acting as the body’s energy thermostat. Kelp's rich supply of nutrients also supports healthy digestion, immunity, proper fluid balance, and respiratory health, as it promotes general well-being.
Dandelion
The entire Dandelion plant is edible—the flowers, the leaves and the roots. Herbalists consider this plant one of the most nutrient-rich in the plant kingdom as it's a source of many important minerals and vitamins. This ubiquitous plant supports digestion and is reported to have tonic effects on the liver and gallbladder. Traditionally used as a liver tonic, dandelion contains polysaccharides that may support liver function and help detoxify the liver. Animal studies show that antioxidants found in dandelion root (including caffeic acid and luteolin) may help protect the liver and support healthy cholesterol levels. Dandelion also helps support healthy urinary function.
Alfalfa
Alfalfa has been used traditionally as a general tonic to help maintain health and well-being. Alfalfa roots grow deep, providing the plant with a rich source of vital nutrients not always found at the ground’s surface. Alfalfa supplies an abundance of vital nutrients, including cleansing chlorophyll, antioxidants, vitamin C, and minerals like calcium, potassium, iron and zinc. Alfalfa supports healthy, enriched blood, due in part to its natural iron content. Alfalfa also encourages regular bowel movements, helps detoxify the urinary tract, maintains normal-range blood sugar levels, promotes a healthy immune response, and supports the pituitary gland, which is an essential part of brain health.
