At Detox For Life we are often asked if it’s a good idea to take Colloidal Minerals every day. The answer is yes! In fact Colloidal Minerals is the only product I recommend people take every day of their lives, adults and children alike, regardless of diet.
Minerals in a sense are more important than vitamins, because without minerals we cannot utilise our vitamins. We all know how irregular children’s diets can be depending on their current mood. Every morning I give my nine-year-old daughter 10mls of Power Labs Colloidal Minerals before school thereby gaining peace of mind that she already has all her mineral requirements for the day!
Colloidal Minerals provide the structural material for bone and teeth formation. Calcium will not do this alone. In fact isolated calcium caltrate prescribed alone can deplete the body of other important essential minerals. Colloidal Minerals contain calcium in the most absorbent form on the planet. Minerals are derived from plants; they contain 75 different minerals and trace elements. And is the most beneficial way of taking minerals, as they are microscopic and absorbed straight into our blood stream and into our cells.
Colloidal Minerals are the most easily absorbed of all mineral supplements as they by-pass the digestive system. Being liquid and having an ultra fine particle size of 0.001 microns in diameter, they are approximately 2000 times smaller than the smallest metallic mineral, which makes them readily absorbed.
The standard recommended dose for Power Labs Colloidal Minerals is 15mls once per day first thing in the morning. (Children 10mls per day and toddlers 5mls per day).
