Fulvic Acid Minerals, 50 ml – Ancient Purity

Q – What is the dose of Fulvic Minerals?
A – We recommend 7 drops daily, which can be spread across the day. To experience a huge benefit faster you could take up to 14 drops across the day.

Q – When can expect to feel something?
A – Some people notice an instant benefit from taking Fulvic Acid Minerals but for others, it is more gradual. We are all different, have a different makeup and have been eating different foods, have lived in different environments and are of different heights, weights and genders.

Q – What water can I use?
A – It must be without chlorine, quality bottled, distilled, filtered, RO. Or let your water stand for 24 hours so chlorine evaporates. Perhaps keep a large jug of water out in your kitchen specifically for Fulvic Minerals. Also ozonating your water using an Ozone Generator would be beneficial.

Q – Why should I take Fulvic Acid Minerals with de-chlorinated water?
A – City water systems have actually removed the Humic and Fulvic Acids from our water supply. The reason: when mixed with chlorine humic and fulvic can create carcinogenic THMs (Trihalomethane) and MX’s (Unknown Mutagen). The culprit is not the humic and fulvic, but the chlorine which is not necessarily beneficial for us but kills unwanted bacteria and microbes. So, now we have to find a way to replace the humic and fulvic we used to get naturally. Please beware that MANY companies selling humic and fulvic products are unaware of this connection and use chlorinated water in their products.

Q – Is Fulvic Acid really an acid?
A – The pH of fulvic is around 4 but it is a very weak organic acid. You can demonstrate this to yourself with a pH meter or test. When you dilute the recommended “maintenance” dose into a half litre of water you will see that it doesn’t affect the pH of the water. Fulvic Acid also has a buffering capacity due to its amphiprotic nature. This is what makes it a great free radical scavenger (anti-oxidant). In other words, it can accept or donate a proton where needed. It is this bi-directionality that allows it to buffer pH in your body making your cells less susceptible to wild pH fluctuation. This is very similar to how carbonic acid buffers your blood naturally and allows it to carry oxygen throughout your system efficiently. In this instance, the word acid is correct scientifically but can be quite misleading if not kept in proper context.

Q – It’s an acid, will it not make me acidic?
A – Fulvic Acid is acidic it, therefore, has a similar effect on your body as some other acidic supplements, such as Apple Cider Vinegar and Vitamin C. These food supplements work safely on the body as effective antioxidants and electrolytes by releasing only a small amount of their hydrogen content, this ensures no damage is done to the lining of the stomach. Our Fulvic Acid Minerals, like ACV and Vitamin C are acidic in nature. They actually have an alkalising effect on the body. Some Fulvic Acid supplements describe being alkaline, having a pH of 7 or above, these Fulvic Acid supplements are a complex / multi-mineral solution etc containing Fulvic Acid but other contents will have neutralised the Fulvic Acid thus raising pH of the product.

Q – Can I take Fulvic Minerals in pure orange juice?
A – It’s safe too, but we’d recommend just (de-chlorinated) water for maximum effect since that’s what testing has been done with.

Q – What is the difference between your newer Fulvic Acid Minerals and the older? The liquid is darker and has a different odour. Is the source different?
A – It’s from the same source, just being extracted in a superior way, leading to a higher quality end-product. We are always looking to upgrade our products where possible and, although or original Fulvic Acid Minerals was high quality, this is an upgrade we are pleased to be able to supply.

Q – Can I take Fulvic Minerals with medication?
A – NO! Do not take it directly with medications. Fulvic reduces the surface tension of cell membranes allowing whatever substance/s you are taking with the fulvic to penetrate into the cells more easily. You must consult with your healthcare practitioner before beginning any health protocol or if you are on any medications.

Q – How are Fulvic Minerals formed?
A – Fulvic acid is a derivative of microbial degradation of humic substances. Micro-organisms are essential to the process. Each gram of healthy top soil has in excess of four billion micro-organisms that participate in manufacturing bio-chemicals essential to healthy plants and animals. If they were to fail our lives would cease. A better perspective of their importance can be gained by looking at the work they do. Micro-organism activity in preparing one acre of top soil expends the equivalent energy of 10,000 people doing the same amount of work in the same amount of time.

Q – What is the difference between humic acid and Fulvic Acid? How do I tell the difference?
A – Fulvic Acid is the low-molecular-weight (LMW) portion of humic substances. By definition, it will be golden in colour where humic acid, the high-molecular-weight (HMW) portion, will be brown to black. Because of its small molecular size, Fulvic Acid is able to penetrate the cell and mitochondria of the cell, where humic acid cannot. The LMW fulvic acids have higher oxygen but lower carbon contents than the HMW humic acids. Fulvic Acids also contain more functional groups of an acidic nature, particularly COOH. The total acidities of Fulvic Acids (900 – 1400 meq/100g) are considerably higher than for humic acids (400 – 870 meq/100g). Humic acid is not soluble in water under acidic conditions (pH < 2) but is soluble at higher pH values. Fulvic Acid is soluble in water under all pH conditions.

Q – Can I mix Fulvic Minerals with other supplements?
A – No, we suggest taking them aside from other supplements by 20 minutes but this is not essential.

Q – Can I mix Fulvic Minerals with Lugols Iodine?
A – Yes but again we suggest it’s better taken alone.

Q – What about allergic reactions to Fulvic Acid Minerals or Humic Acid?
A – To our knowledge, we have never had anyone experience an allergic reaction to our fulvic or humic products and have not found any reports on allergic reactions to fulvic or humic in general in the data.If you believe you are experiencing an allergic reaction to fulvic or humic acid stop taking the product immediately. If symptoms are persistent or severe please see your physician.

Q – Can I use Fulvic Minerals on my plants or in my garden?
A – Yes. Just add 1 tablespoon into 1 gallon of UNCHLORINATED water (water that has no chlorine in it) which will nourish and help provide the highest quality plant, flowers and vegetables.

Q – Is it safe for children, what is the dose?
A – Always consult with your child’s physician before giving to children. Fulvic Minerals have not been evaluated for children.

Q – Is it safe for using during pregnancy/nursing?
A – In our experience lots of people have used it during pregnancy and nursing and had positive results, but it hasn’t been officially evaluated so we cannot recommend it.

Q – Can I take this with amalgam fillings In my mouth?
A – Yes the Fulvic will not affect anything in your mouth but you’d have to leave a filling in Fulvic for days for it to draw out mercury. What you should do is use a straw when drinking it, and if not brush your teeth afterwards. See our Glass Energy Straw.

Q – Can I use the Fulvic Acid Minerals in mineral water?
A – As long as the mineral water is chlorine free, yes.

Q – A sediment seems to gather at the bottom of the glass, can I drink it?
A – This isn’t a sediment, it’s the Fulvic Minerals perhaps not entirely mixing, just give it a stir and consume as normal.
