Most of the world's farming soils became depleted of essential minerals decades ago. Maybe you should be using our naturally-chelated complex to supply the essential trace elements that your livestock, pets, houseplants and crops need to remain healthy. Trace elements have proven catalytic properties to boost yield and increase the absorption rate. They act synergistically with vitamins, enzymes and amino acids to enhance bio-availability, hence metabolism and nutrition. The main mineral (Montmorillonite), a clay, is correctly termed an aluminum silicate. It forms the matrix that has attracted all the other minerals and elements with their diverse properties. There is an impressive array of 78 distinct elements identified to date that obviously have combined in many different ways, chiefly with Oxygen. The essential chemistry evidently took place within a fresh water deposit, as the complete absence of the compound NaCl, sodium chloride (salt) within the clay attests. This lacustrine environment was the home to trillions and trillions of diatoms. These tiny organisms and other animal and plant life, particularly along with the bacteria feeding upon decomposing vegetable matter that washed into the basin, or lake, chelated the elements during their metabolism of nutrients. The remarkable fulvic acid content of the deposit as a bi-product of thriving bio-friendly bacteria further evidences the organic processes. After this aquatic life expired, it left behind edible clay, rich in trace elements with catalytic properties important for so many functions within higher life forms.
