Ingredients:
Natural electrolytes and dissolved mineral complexes from an
ancient deposit of natural organic plant material
Contains no sugar, artificial flavor or
color.
Suggested use:
Two to four tablespoons in the morning as a
digestive aid. May be mixed with orange, grapefruit, or cranberry juice to
reduce the stringent mineral taste. Take supplemental fiber and minerals at
different times because fiber decreases the body's absorption of minerals.

Minerals are required by every organ, gland, and muscle in
the body to function properly. Over 900 common medical problems are directly
linked to mineral deficiencies.
The 74 different minerals in Fulvic Acid Mineral Water are
100% bioavailable because they are chelated.
The mineral content of fruits and vegetables depends on the
soil they are grown in. Erosion and modern farming methods have seriously
depleted the minerals available from plant food sources making supplementation
a necessity for good health.
Organically grown foods must have a humic soil base composed
of degraded organic compounds and soil. Farmers who grow crops with chemical
fertilizers and pesticides destroy the humus beds and microorganisms of the
soil. A century ago, our farm lands boasted a foot of humic soil whereas today
it is less than four inches. The amount of organically viable land fertile
enough to produce nutritious and healthy foods diminishes each year as does the
health of those eating the nutritionally deficient plants.
It has been known since 1936 that vitamins control the
body's appropriation of minerals, but lacking minerals, vitamins are useless.
There are two groups of minerals - macro and trace. Macro minerals which are
needed in larger amounts include calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and
phosphorus. Trace minerals such as zinc, boron, iron, chromium, selenium and
iodine are needed in minute amounts but are essential to good health. For
instance, boron is needed for calcium uptake; iodine helps to metabolize excess
fat and is needed for a healthy thyroid gland; and chromium is involved in the
metabolism of glucose.
Minerals need to be chelated, bound to a protein molecule,
to be bioavailable. (Mineral assimilation without chelation is only about 10%.)
Fulvic acid, a by-product of plant photosynthesis, is the strongest chelating
agent known. Fulvic acids enter into all life processes within plants and
animals. They act as free radical scavengers, supply vital electrolytes,
enhance and transport nutrients, catalyze enzyme reactions, increase
assimilation, chelate macro and trace minerals, and enhance electrochemical
balance. Fulvic acid is what makes the trace minerals in Fulvic Acid Mineral
Water 100% bioavailable.
In light of the fact that our food supply is nutritionally
deficient, supplementation has become a necessity rather than a luxury if we
want to maintain good health.
Fulvic Acid Mineral Water Questions &
Answers
What is the source of Springboard's Fulvic Acid Mineral
Water?
Fulvic Acid Mineral Water is extracted from an ancient
organic humus bed that was living plant matter containing all of the major and
trace elements when these deposits were stored.
What is the difference between Fulvic Acid Mineral Water and
other mineral drinks?
The fulvic acid content and the extraction method.
Photosynthesis produces mucopolysaccharides or sugars which are exuded at the
root level. Microorganisms ingest the polysaccharides and produce humic and
fulvic acids. Humic acid dissolves minerals in the soil then the fulvic acid
supplies the minerals to the plant via the root system. The minerals are then
100% bioavailable because they have been naturally chelated by the fulvic acid.
Mineral complexes from rock, clay, salt beds or lakes are inorganic because
they have never been assimilated by a plant and reduced to an ionic form. (The
body can only assimilate about 10% of an inorganic mineral complex.)
The minerals in Fulvic Acid Mineral Water are extracted with
purified cold water. This method does not destroy the fulvic acid. Many other
mineral preparations are extracted using sulfuric acid, a method which produces
a high sulphur, high solid (mostly sulphur), low carbon, and low fulvic acid
end product. Low carbon and low fulvic acid levels are the prime indicators
that a mineral product is inferior.
Just how important is the role of fulvic acid in
humans?
Fulvic acid assists every stage of cellular metabolism and
is the most powerful, natural electrolyte known. It restores electrical balance
to damaged cells, neutralizes toxins and can eliminate food poisoning within
minutes. When it encounters free radicals with unpaired positive or negative
electrons, it supplies an equal and opposite charge to neutralize the free
radical. Fulvic acid acts as a refiner and transporter of organic materials and
cell nutrients.
If fulvic acid is so important, why haven't I heard of it
before?
Outside of technical circles, fulvic acid is virtually
unknown. In plants, fulvic acid stimulates metabolism, provides respiration,
increases metabolism of proteins and activity of multiple enzymes, enhances the
permeability of cell membranes, cell division and elongation, aids chlorophyll
synthesis, drought tolerance, crop yields, buffers soil pH, assists
denitrification by microbes, contributes to electrochemical balance as a donor
or an acceptor, decomposes silica to release essential mineral nutrients,
detoxifies pollutants such as pesticides and herbicides.
Why is the carbon content in Fulvic Acid Mineral Water so
high?
Carbon is the main ingredient in the formation of fulvic
acid. The higher the level of carbon, the higher the content of fulvic acid. A
product with low levels of carbon does not have very much fulvic acid and
consequently will not work well. Sweetners mask carbon content.
Aluminum has been linked to Alzheimer's Disease. Is the
aluminum in Fulvic Acid Mineral Water harmful?
A refined mineral or metal produced by man should not be
confused with a naturally chelated ionic form of aluminum, arsenic, lead, or
any trace element derived from plant life. Aluminum is the second most
prevalent element on earth and organic aluminum is in every food we eat.
Combined with fulvic acid, organic aluminum forms aluminum silicate which is
harmless to the body. (One gram of beans contain 200 mg. of aluminum silicate.
If it were harmful, people who eat beans as a staple would all have Alzheimer's
disease.) All minerals found in plants are bound to an organic compound
composed of amino acids, proteins or acids. Plant form minerals are ionic
rather than metallic elements. |
