What
are water-soluble liquid minerals?
Water-soluble
minerals are unique from other mineral supplements because
they utilize a new proprietary scientific technology
that transforms insoluble minerals (metals) into angstrom-sized
water-soluble particles. An angstrom is 1/10,000th of
a micron, which is a millionth of a meter. Previously,
only plants, with help from the sun and organisms in
the soil, had the ability to reduce minerals (metals)
to angstrom-sized particles.
The
ability of a mineral to be utilized by the body is primarily
a matter of size. If you get the particle size of the
mineral small enough, you not only get the mineral into
the body (absorption), but you also accomplish cell
assimilation, which is the key to fully utilizing the
benefits of mineral nutrients.
Because
these water-soluble minerals are not dependent on the
digestive or enzymatic functions of the body, they work
extraordinarily well for older people and others with
diminished body system abilities. They are also easier
for children and older people to swallow than pills
or capsules.
How
are water-soluble minerals better than pill or capsule
form?
We
believe the criteria for proper utilization and absorption
of all minerals, vitamins and other nutrients is dependent
on their size and absorbability, also called bioavailability.
No matter what the body takes in, it has to "liquefy"
it in order to be able to use it. The challenge with
most traditional pill and capsule supplements is that
they usually have been processed with intense pressure,
heat, paraffin coatings, and fillers. This “complex”
nutrient form is difficult for the body to break down
as it is not in the desired form the body needs. Just
because a substance may be present in a compound, does
not mean that it can be used. Rust is not a bioavailable
source of iron, and pennies are not a bioavailable source
of copper. Although a substance may be present in a
compound, it does not mean it can be used.
Body absorption of the desired elemental mineral from
pills and capsules is often less than 10%, with cell
assimilation being almost immeasurable. In addition,
pills and capsules require significant digestion before
any type of effective absorption can take place. Due
to consumption of foods heavily laden with preservatives,
drinking highly acidic beverages such as soda and coffee,
exposure to environmental toxins, as well as the normal
aging process, the digestive capacity of most individuals
is significantly compromised. Therefore, mineral supplements
provided in pill/capsule/tablet form provide fractional
benefits to the body at best due to their challenges
with both absorption and assimilation in the body. Even
liquefied suspensions are not in a pure design, these
are simply a suspension of small particles in water.
Grinding up a pill and suspending it in water does not
increase its bioavailability any more than putting dirt
in water (making mud) increases its bioavailability.
When
minerals are truly water-soluble, they provide significant
health benefits superior to any other supplement form.
