Prevention instead of cure
Most diseases are caused by a chronic lack of nutrients and microelements, caused by a poor diet, environmental pollution and stress. Modern foods contain few useful substances, but many toxic additives, therefore, quality nutritional supplements are necessary to maintain health.
Micronutrients (e.g. magnesium, zinc, iron) are essential for enzyme function. The best utilization is provided by chelated forms, which are easily absorbed, support balance, and help eliminate harmful heavy metals.
Our humic acid-containing products replenish the body's needs with a diverse mineral composition, strengthen the immune system, and have a beneficial effect against inflammation, infection, and the development of tumors.
Not recommended for allergies, certain metabolic diseases, kidney dysfunction or the first trimester of pregnancy.
Properties
The unique climate and clean environment of the Carpathian Basin have created extremely pure humic acid over thousands of years, which is also suitable for human use. The humic acid we use comes from young, flat-land peat and, thanks to its natural chelating properties, it perfectly binds and transports metal ions useful for the body, while removing harmful heavy metals.
The complex molecular structure of humic acid allows the micro and macro elements it contains to be easily absorbed, improve nutrient utilization, and support the body's defenses. Its low molecular weight form has an outstanding metal binding capacity, so the minerals it contains are better utilized than in ionic form.
Other benefits include enhancing cellular respiration, stimulating enzyme and protein synthesis, and supporting growth and regeneration processes.
Structure
Humic acid is a pure natural treasure of the Carpathian Basin, whose complex molecular structure makes it truly valuable. This structure works like a microscopic nutrient transport system :
- Binds and delivers beneficial minerals to cells
- Removes harmful heavy metals from the body
- Improves nutrient utilization
Its low molecular weight fractions have an outstanding metal binding capacity , so the micro and macro elements contained in it are utilized much better than in traditional form.
This natural “smart molecule” not only nourishes, but also supports cellular respiration, enzyme production and regeneration – all in a completely natural way.
Chemical processes
The geochemical reactions that occur during isotope transport are fundamentally influenced by the ionic strength, pH, and redox potential of humic acid. Humic acid is a complex chemical system, where the following interactions may be decisive during isotope transport:
- sorption on the surface of humic acids (ion exchange, surface complex formation)
- precipitation, mineralization;
- redox reactions;
- hydrolysis;
- complex formation with organic acids (humic acid, fulvic acid);
- sorption onto the surface of organic and inorganic colloids of humic acid (size: 1 nm - 1 μm), in which case the isotopes are present in the form of so-called pseudo colloids in the humic acid;
- microbiological processes.
The most important process for the binding of isotopes is the adsorption on the surface of humic acids. The surface of humic acids is negatively charged, thus they strongly sorb cations (e.g. Cs+, Sr2+ and Co2+ ions). Due to the negative charge of humic acids, the mobility of those radionuclides that are negatively charged (e.g. I- and negatively charged hydroxo complexes) will be the highest. The negative charge of the surface of humic acids is caused by isomorphic substitution, where humic acid ions are replaced - in a certain proportion - by cations of similar size but smaller positive charge. The compensation of negative charges on the humic acid surface can be characterized by the electric triple layer model. The compensating positive charges can be exchanged, one of the essential characteristics of humic acids is the cation exchange capacity (CEC: Cation Exchange Capacity, meq/kg). Another important characteristic of the binding of ions is the sorption isotherm.
Vitamins
Minerals
Minerals do not provide energy, are not vitamins (i.e. not organic compounds), are not toxic (at least in normal amounts) to the body, but are necessary in smaller or larger amounts for the body to function. Minerals in total make up 4-5% of our body. Minerals, microelements and trace elements are inorganic substances.
Those minerals and elements whose amount exceeds 0.005% of the human body weight are called macroelements. Macroelements are needed by the human body in amounts of a few hundred milligrams or a few grams per day: phosphorus, calcium, potassium, sulfur, chlorine, magnesium, sodium.
Those minerals and elements whose amount does not exceed 0.005% of the human body weight are called microelements. We need a few milligrams or less of microelements per day: zinc, fluorine, iodine, cobalt, chromium, manganese, molybdenum, copper, selenium, iron.
Trace elements are those microelements that are only found in trace amounts in the body and do not need to be taken in every day. Very often, the concepts of microelement and trace element are confused: selenium, aluminum.
The role of minerals
Minerals are essential for our health, but due to the depletion of agricultural soils, less and less of them reach plants and therefore our food. As a result, even if we eat more, we do not provide the right amount of micro and macro elements that our body needs. This deficiency can lead to various diseases, developmental problems and even behavioral disorders.
For example, calcium is crucial for bone, nervous system and muscle function, yet a large portion of the population is deficient in calcium, which causes a number of health problems. Similarly, iron deficiency can lead to anemia, and other minerals such as magnesium and phosphorus also play important roles in the functioning of our bodies.
For vitamins to function effectively, they also need adequate mineral supply, as they regulate the body's mineral balance. Therefore, it is not enough to just increase calorie intake, but a quality, mineral-rich diet is the key to health and well-being.
