What are colloidal minerals?
In my last post, I was telling you about this great health-related discovery I made while researching rare earth minerals. If you are going to try any of Youngevity’s products to see if you get similar positive health, energy, rejuvenating results, it’s important for you to understand what colloidal minerals are, because these are the safest minerals to take.
The term “colloidal” refers to the particle size. Colloids are extremely small, sometimes as much as 700 times smaller than a red blood cell! The smaller the particle, the greater the ease of absorption into the body.
Organic colloidal minerals are minerals directly from plants grown in mineral-rich soils. They are 98% absorbable. When minerals are drawn up into the plant through its root system, the bio-electrical charge of the element is altered from positive to negative. This is important because the linings of our small intestines are positively charged. A magnetic gradient is established which effectively pulls in the needed nutrient. This, too, accounts for the high absorbability of liquid, organic colloidal minerals.
