Description
Fulvic acid is thought by leading natural health experts to be one of the most important “missing links” in the modern food chain. Medical and agricultural research conclusively indicates fulvic acid either directly or indirectly holds the keys to many of the world’s health problems.
Energy Boost 70’s fulvic acid mineral complexes are demonstrated to:
• Improve energy function
• Increase nutrient assimilation
• Stimulate the metabolism
• Restore the body’s electrochemical balance
• Reduce high blood pressure
• Help rebuild the immune system
• Be a powerful natural antioxidant and free radical scavenger
• Detoxify the body of heavy metals and other pollutants
What are humates, humic acid, and fulvic acid?
Humate (carobonatious shale) is formed from massive deposits of prehistoric vegetation. These layers were laid down over thousands of years through the natural processes of life and death. The acid complexes found in humate and in the soil and plants around us are referred to as humic substances.
The beneficial substances found in humate are predominately carbon, chelated minerals, amino acids, and humic and fulvic acids. Perhaps the most important humic substance is fulvic acid, the beneficial properties of which have been documented by a number of universities and scientists around the world.
Fulvic acid is a part of the humic structure of rich, composting soil. It is created by microbes working on decaying matter in a soil environment, hence it exists in all rich soils that have not been degraded through modern farming methods. Fulvic acid also is found in plants, which take it into themselves and use it in their metabolism, and then pass it on to us when we eat plants rich in fulvic acid. Fulvic acid is found in usable form in humate as well. Fulvic acid from humic deposits usually carry 60 or more minerals and trace elements in organic complexes that are necessary for life.
Where do they come from?
Energy Boost 70 supplements are formulated from naturally occurring fresh water humic shale mined from the Fruitland Formation in northwestern New Mexico. These minerals, rich in natural organic humates, are what remains of a shallow freshwater sea that existed during the time of the dinosaurs.
How does fulvic acid work?
Minerals exist naturally in metallic and organic forms. The human body is not designed to absorb and use minerals in metallic form and can only absorb these minerals when they have become bio-available, a process called chelation. Fulvic acid derived from humic substances chelates valuable minerals, such as calcium, iron, and magnesium, bonding with them to form new organic mineral complexes that can be utilized by plant and animal metabolisms. These new organic mineral complexes can easily pass through the cell’s semi-permeable membrane and perform metabolic functions that minerals in metallic form cannot.
The chelation process of fulvic acid does not need to take place in the soil or in a plant, but can occur in our stomachs just as effectively. Morningstar Minerals products are all natural and chelation occurs naturally by the dissolving of colloidal metallic minerals in fulvic acid.
Why should I take humic acid and fulvic acid?
People taking humic and fulvic acid supplements have reported increased energy, higher stress tolerance, improved disease resistance, and faster recovery from injuries
Recent laboratory research has shown fulvic acid to be one of the most efficient cellular electrolytes known to mankind. Researchers believe that cellular processes operate at peak efficiency in the presence of fulvic acid. Humic and fulvic acid have been also been demonstrated to be highly efficient chelators of minerals and trace elements for transport through cell membranes.
Further testing also suggests that humic and fulvic compounds are also very effective at neutralizing the toxic effects of heavy metals and other potentially harmful byproducts, for proper cell health.
