The following MINERALS
may be beneficial: |
+ BORON
Boron enhances
the body’s ability to absorb calcium and magnesium. It may also promote
beneficial levels of estrogen and testosterone in healthy post-menopausal women
and help convert vitamin D to its active form, supporting the absorption of
calcium.* |
+ CALCIUM
Calcium
performs numerous vital functions in the body. It combines with phosphorus to
strengthen bones and is crucial for nerve conduction, muscle contraction and
heartbeat. Calcium also helps prevent cramps brought on by exercise by avoiding
lactic acid buildup.* |
+ CESIUM
Cesium is one
of the most alkaline elements. When taken up by cancer cells, it raises the pH
of the cell. A pH range of 8.0 is a deadly invironment for cancer cells. The
cells die and are absorbed and eliminated by the body.* |
+ CHROMIUM
Chromium is
essential to the metabolism of lipids, glucose and insulin. It promotes healthy
glucose tolerance and helps regulate sugar levels in the body. Chromium also
aids in the breakdown and distribution of proteins and
carbohydrates.* |
+ COPPER
Copper is
heavily involved in the production of hemoglobin. It is also involved in the
production of colagen, the protein responsible for the integrity of bone,
cartilege, skin and tendon, and elastin, a major component of large blood
vessels.* |
+ GERMANIUM
Germanium
improves oxygen flow to tissures, boosting circulation, which improves stamina
and endurance. it also has antioxidant properties.* |
+ GOLD
Gold is thought
to have a chelation effect on free radicals.* |
+ IODINE
Iodine is
crucial for the health of the thyroid gland and is essential for the production
of two key hormones that help regulate a host of body processes including
resting metabolic rate, heart rate, heat production and energy
levels.* |
+ IRON
Iron is a key
component of hemoglobin. It is involved in the entire process of respiration.
Iron is also a component of enzymes within immune cells that chew up foreign
substances.* |
+ MAGNESIUM
Magnesium
is essential for every major biological process. It is necessary for 300+
enzymatic reactions and is vital for calcium metabolism. Magnesium is not a
trace mineral, but a major entity in our bodies.* |
+ MANGANESE
Manganese
is involved in protein, fat and energy metabolism. It's primary function,
though, is as an antioxidant. Manganese is an essential part of biochemical
reactions that affect bone, cartilage and brain function.* |
+ MOLYBDENUM
Molybdenum |
+ PHOSPHORUS
Phosphorus is the body's source of phosphate, which helps create and
manage energy, synthesize protein, fat and carbohydrates, contract muscles, and
maintain the body's PH. It is also essential for stimulating hormone production
and helping the body utilize the B vitamins. It combines with calcium to help
form the latticework for strong bones and teeth. Over 80% of the body’s
phosphorus is located in bone.* |
+ PLATINUM
Platinum
has been linked to increasing mental alertness and energy, helping nerve and
muscle function, and promoting immune system health.* |
+ POTASSIUM
Potassium
is necessary for the transmission of nerve impulses that provide smooth
coordinated muscle movement. Potassium also helps widen the blood vessels during
exercise, thereby increasing blood flow to help carry away heat, and it is used
to convert blood glucose to glycogen.* |
+ SELENIUM
Selenium is
an essential trace mineral required by the body in small quantities. It is also
a potent antioxidant. Selenium is necessary for proper calcium and vitamin C
metabolism, helps convert blood sugar into energy, decreases platelet
aggregation and helps promote cardiovascular health.* |
+ SILICA
Silica is an
element required for the proper functioning of the enzyme prolyhydroxylase. This
enzyme functions in the formation of: collagen in bone, cartilage, and
connective tissue. Silica is also a natural diuretic.* |
+ SILVER
Silver is a
powerfully effective all natural antibiotic, disinfectant, and germ fighter: it
kills bacteria, fungus, and viral infections.* |
+ SODIUM
Sodium is an
electrolyte that helps maintain water balance in the body. Due to its electrical
charge, sodium passes back and forth between cell membranes, carrying nutrients
(such as glucose) in and carrying waste products out. It also plays a key role
in regulating blood pressure and heartbeat.* |
+ SULFUR
Sulfur is an
essential component of biotin, thiamin and pantothenic acid. It is found in all
skin and connective tissue and is vital for the growth of hair and nails. Sulfur
plays an important role in energy metabolism, insulin production and hormone
synthesis.* |
+ VANADIUM
Vanadium
plays a role in cellular metabolism, the formation of bones and teeth,
reproduction, and growth. It also inhibits cholesterol synthesis.Vanadium may
help maintain healthy glucose and lipid metabolism. |
+ ZINC
Zinc is
required for the production of both RNA and DNA, the basic building blocks of
the body. It assists the body in making the 200+ enzymes and is essential in the
development and continuous normal functioning of the central nervous system.
Zinc also plays a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and
fats.* |
