What Are the Benefits of Taking Liquid Colloidal Minerals?

Colloidal minerals are created using electrolysis, a process in which the mineral molecules are subjected to electricity, causing them to be dissolved and absorbed into a liquid.

  1. Features

    • Colloidal minerals have a negative electrical charge and are about 7,000 times smaller than red blood cells, which makes them readily available inside the cells of the body.

    Comparison

    • Colloidal minerals are about 98 percent absorbable by the body, compared to most mineral tablets, which are 8 to 12 percent, and chelated minerals, which are about 40 percent absorbable.

    Benefits

    • Because they carry a negative charge, colloidal minerals can pass through the pores of the intestinal wall into the bloodstream, whereas positively-charged minerals pass out of the body from the bowel.

    Effects

    • Mineral deficiency is linked to many health conditions, such as anemia, fatigue, headaches, graying and falling hair, insomnia, anorexia, learning disabilities, anxiety, depression, nervous tension, schizophrenia, high blood pressure, diabetes, osteoporosis and lowered resistance to disease.

    Expert Insight

    • According to the National Institutes of Health, some medications are known to deplete mineral levels in the body, including antibiotics, diuretics, antacids, laxatives and some cancer drugs.
