Trace minerals research has conclusively demonstrated their importance to human health.* They are cofactors for most of the body’s enzymatic reactions, as well as being essential for proper hormone and neurotransmitter function.* Many of the minerals can be obtained from the diet by eating fruits and vegetables; however, mineral depletion of the soil has rendered much of today’s produce deficient in these essential nutrients. A deficiency of one or more can adversely impact cardiovascular health, bone health, fertility, cognitive function, and immune function.* Even a mild deficiency of a trace mineral can result in less than optimal growth and development.* This product is a comprehensive trace mineral formulation of well-absorbed forms for superb absorption.*
