Specific nutrients serve a wide variety of functions in the body to support optimal health. What is rarely discussed, however, is the fact that no nutrient functions independently within the body. All nutrients interact with and affect one another. The Complete Minerals line combines specific single mineral nutrients with other minerals, trace minerals, vitamins, and nutrients known to enhance the expected results.
Calcium: This mineral, found in many dairy products, is keenly involved in bone formation and bone resorption. Researchers at the University of Iowa College of Medicine discovered that calcium intake alone did not boost bone density. Rather, calcium, when combined with vitamin D (see below), resulted in increased bone density. Calcium also performs a number of functions in the body such as blood clotting and nerve transmission and can influence blood pressure.
|
Magnesium: This mineral participates in more than 300 enzymatic reactions that maintain cell structure and function. Magnesium works very closely with calcium to build bones by converting vitamin D to one of the hormones needed for utilization of calcium, which is the major structural component of bone. Magnesium also plays a role in forming the organic portion (bone matrix) that prevents brittleness and protects against fractures. Magnesium also regulates the balance of calcium and sodium in our cells. If our bodies lack sufficient magnesium, calcium and sodium are allowed to flood into cells which can then have a constricting effect. Magnesium is also important for a healthy heart, helping our blood vessels to remain relaxed and open.
|
Vitamin D: This vitamin is absolutely important in the absorption of calcium. Vitamin D is converted in the liver to 25-hydroxyvitamin D, a prohormone, which, in turn, is then converted to 1,25 vitamin D or calciferol. This hormone is what transports calcium from the gastrointestinal tract directly to the bones.

Alfalfa: A versatile herb, it is known to be helpful with arthritic and rheumatic pain and it is also a natural diuretic. Alfalfa is one of the richest land grown source of trace minerals; rich in calcium, and well balanced with magnesium, phosphorus, and silicon.
Grapefruit Concentrate: Grapefruit assists with calcium and magnesium absorption.
Horsetail (Shavergrass): This herb is utilised in this product as it is involved in the absorption of calcium. It is also important for the health and maintenance of collagen, a connective tissue that maintains the elasticity and strength of our joints and skin
Other ingredients: Also includes naturally-occurring, ionic micronutrients including boron, zinc, copper, boron and manganese found in Concentrated Mineral Drops®.
