Mineral depletion in the soil -- and thus depletion in the foods grown in the soil -- continues to worry scientists and generate headlines. Minerals are critically important components of a healthy diet and their absence or inadequacy can cause wide ranging metabolic challenges. In fact, every chemical reaction that occurs in the body -- energy production, tissue manufacture, protein synthesis, water balance, immune system function, cellular growth and reproduction and on and on -- requires at least one mineral.
Vitamins are organic substances (derived from plants and animals) and for the most part move through the process of digestion and absorption with relative ease. minerals, on the other hand, are structure and physical properties they can make their digestion and absorption more challenging. The reason for this is the minerals are basic elements, identified and positioned on the Periodic Table of Elements. When digested from foods or food supplements, minerals return to their elemental or ionic form and have a positive charge or valence. Elemental calcium, for example, is divalent meaning it has a double positive charge, literally Ca++. (Iron and Zinc are also dilavent; Fe++ and Zn++, respectively).
It is this "charge" that complicates absorption because, in this form, minerals are highly reactive to things around them with an opposite charge. In the intestine, elemental calcium can react with fats to form soap-like compounds tha can no longer be absorbed. It can also react with the tissue of the intestine itself, bonding to it and becoming non-absorbable in the process. As a result, the body only absorbs a small portion of the minerals consumed.
The Birth of Mineral Chelation technology
In the mid 1970s, under the direction of Scientific Advisory Board Founding Member Emeritus, the
late Dr Authur Furst, NeoLife researchers undertook the development of dietary supplements that would provide increased absorption of essential minerals. Having spent decades discovering the amazing and complicated properties of minerals and toxic metals, Dr Furst understood the absorption challenges confronted in the digestive tract better than anyone. He knew that if he could find a way to neutralize the minerals's positive charges but still have an absorbable molecule, he could improve mineral supplementation. He found his answer in amino acids -- the building blocks of protein. By ionizing the mineral and then bonding it with amino acids, Dr Furst developed the process of double amino acid chelation: bonding one amino acid to each of the two positive charges. This protected the mineral from reacting with other substances and because the body loves amino acids, improved mineral absorption. Independent research has shown that minerals chelated with amino acids may be absorbed up to 6x greater than non-chelated minerals.
Today, NeoLife's exclusive double amino acid chelation technology, developed for us by Dr Furst nearly 40 yrss ago, is still the most efficient way of delivering supplemental minerals. The processes involved in extracting the elemental mineral ions from its source compound and then bonding it with specific amino acids under control conditions to produce a new, stable, highly absorbable chelated mineral is an exclusive process passed on to us by Dr Furst and known only to NeoLife. The result is mineral supplementation of the highest order and functional potential that can only be had from NeoLife products.
We've been taking NeoLife, honestly, on & off for about 30 yrs. When our son had Leukemia, and the oncology team sat us down about all the supplements we were asking about. They told us they would only ever suggest NeoLife, because they knew of the science behind the product and purity of the product. That was enough for us, we stayed on NeoLife regularly, and have noticed the difference. I tried a couple other brands, did research to learn I was far from impressed with their lack of science, or absence of purity and whole human food chain sources, and have always returned to NeoLife. Now we don't even look any further, not interested in others as no one has ever come close to NeoLife, it's a waste of our time and for my money, I want the best for us, not a poor substitute.
