Minerals - Fulvic & Humic ... does anyone supplement?

[Rogol72]

Hey Folks,

Has anyone heard of or is anyone supplementing with Fulvic and Humic minerals?

What do you know about them, what are the benefits if anyone is supplementing?

Good for binding heavy metals in the body, also great for plants. They’re not all made equal so worth doing some research on suppliers.

Lots of substandard products available, some are amazing for plant and human health, others make a great biocide/herbicide.

Thanks. Have you come across a good quality ultra trace mineral product (from the oceans)? Have you tried the Trace Mineral Research product?

I think we might be talking about different things? I missed the word ‘minerals’ so thought you were referring to fulvic and humic acid.

I just use hymalayan salt in food for minerals, it was formed before the planet was polluted. I’m dubious about eating too much from the sea since Fukushima.

Fulvic and humic acid help bind any cesium you ingest, not sure if it’s an issue with the product you mentioned, maybe they get it from Scandinavia so it’s fine.

We're on the same page ... I was referring to fulvic and humic acid to educate myself about them, but subsequently if you or anyone has tried these trace mineral products ... https://www.traceminerals.com/. I believe the trace minerals come from ancient salt deposits in Utah (which may be polluted?).

I use himalayan salt in food also, but never felt it was doing anything. So I take either Biocare  or Viridian Trace Mineral complex for the essential trace minerals, Selenium, Manganese, Chromium etc. Today I've started taking Viridian Organic Mineral Complex from red algae and seaweed which are harvested of the coast of Ireland and Scotland.

I share your concerns after Fukushima.

Dr Robert Faust is worth looking up for info on humic acids, fulvic is the one with all the health benefits, anti viral, anti inflammatory, chelation ect.

I am using them for mycotoxin binding, they are the more gentle binders. You may like looking into “tox-ease gl” by Beyond Balance® which is great stuff and full of helpful herbs etc that go well with fulvic and help it do its best work. I say, go for it!
