Supplement Boost Formulation
Comparing Supplement Boost
Our minerals are made with all-natural, solar concentration. While these methods may be more “difficult,” “time-consuming,” by some standards, the result is believed to be the finest all-natural mineral and trace element product crafted by nature that truly captures the essence of “all natural” in a way that other mineral products and ingredients can’t come close to touching.
These minerals are subjected to extensive testing according to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approved methods. Our supplier tests the minerals at its in-house quality assurance laboratory as well as independent, third-party labs.
Clinically proven. In a study about hydration under arduous conditions, published in Wilderness and Environmental Medicine, those who drank plain water consumed 74 percent more water to achieve the same level of hydration as those who drank water with Supplement BOOST.
Maintenance Dose: 5 pumps into any liquid twice per day.
Therapeutic Dose: 5 pumps into any liquid up to 8 times per day.

Trace Minerals
Boron plays a role in calcium and magnesium metabolism and the retention of these minerals in bones. Boron is suspected to play a role in bone strength and the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Boron plays a role in the bodies ability to generate energy. Boron also helps raise estrogen levels.
Chromium is an essential nutrient required for normal sugar and fat metabolism. As an aid to glucose metabolism, chromium is essential to the regulation of blood sugar and fat metabolism. Chromium supplementation may be advisable if white flour and refined sugars are routinely consumed, as those foods can cause an eventual depletion in chromium reserves from the body during digestion. Some studies indicate absorption of chromium is enhanced when taken with Vitamin C. Helps prevent sugar cravings and sudden drops in energy; promotes a healthy circulatory system; has been used as a treatment for migraine headaches, psoriasis and acne.
Cobalt. As the key mineral in the Vitamin B12 molecule, it is essential for proper nerve function and red blood cell formation. B12 is essential for a variety of synthetic processes in the cells. The deficiency of this vitamin is particularly detrimental to neurons and rapidly dividing cells, including skin cells.
Copper has a number of important functions in the body pertaining to energy production, strengthening of connective tissue, and brain neurotransmitters, among others. It is also part of certain enzymes responsible for biochemical reactions in the body. Copper and zinc together are crucial to the formation of collagen, connective tissues, and the protein fibers found in bone, cartilage, and ligaments. Copper also works with vitamin A and zinc to form elastin a chief component in skin tissue and muscle fibers, is in involved with the healing process as well as hair and skin coloring. It is an important component in the formation of collagen.
Iodine This mineral is needed for thyroid gland metabolism, as well as nerve and muscle function. Iodine is used by the thyroid gland to produce an important hormone called thyroxine. This hormone helps regulate energy production, body temperature, breathing, muscle tone and the manufacturing and breakdown of tissues.
Manganese is an essential element concentrated primarily in the bone, liver, pancreas and brain, manganese plays a role in cholesterol metabolism and normal skeletal growth and development. Manganese is a factor in transmitting nerve impulses to the muscles. It is an important co-factor in the key enzymes of glucose metabolism. Increases the activity of the anti-oxidant enzyme (SOD), this enzyme is responsible for preventing the superoxide free radical from destroying cellular components. Necessary for the proper digestion and utilization of food functions in many enzyme systems, including enzymes involved in blood sugar control, energy metabolism, and thyroid hormone function.
Magnesium, serves as a key mineral for muscles and nerves among its many roles. It facilitates about 300 basic enzymatic reactions and serves as a co-factor for numerous ATP-dependent reactions.
Potassium performs countless vital functions in the body supporting the nervous system, aiding in digestion, processing and storing carbohydrates, and providing electrolytic charge (ions) to the cells. Most of the total body potassium is found in muscle tissue and it is a great attractant of oxygen. Potassium works with sodium in the body to maintain proper body fluids distribution and blood pressure. Potassium depletion can come from excessive perspiration, intestinal tract diseases and problems, uncontrolled diabetes, and may cause fatigue and muscle cramping among other symptoms. It also regulates the transfer of nutrients through cell membranes, stimulates the kidneys to eliminate poisonous body wastes.
Selenium plays an important role as an enzyme co-factor in reducing tissue damage from free radicals. Selenium's antioxidant qualities in tandem with vitamins like C and E are of particular interest to athletes. Selenium helps to protect cells from environmental damage, and preliminary studies show it may help the immune system and assist in preventing cancer and other degenerative diseases. A major anti-oxidant which protects cell membranes; preserves tissue elasticity and youthfulness of the skin.
Silica has shown indications of being necessary for normal growth and bone formation in animals. Growing evidence suggests it may have anti-aging properties because deficiencies of silicon apparently play a role in tissue degeneration. Necessary for the formation of collagen for bones and connective tissue; promotes healthy nails, skin, and hair. Important for calcium absorption; improves the elasticity and thickness of the skin.
Sodium acts together with potassium to maintain proper body fluid distribution and blood pressure. It is also important in maintaining a proper pH balance in the body, and in facilitating the transmission of nerve impulses. People experiencing dehydration and electrolyte loss due to heavy perspiration, diarrhea, use of diuretics and other conditions may experience fatigue, muscle weakness and cramping and in severe cases convulsions.
Zinc is essential to the proper function of many enzymes that include those involved in bone and tissue growth and repair, cell respiration, wound healing, and the regulation of heart rate and blood pressure. Together with copper, zinc is important to the formation of connective tissues and the protein fibers found in bone, cartilage, ligaments, teeth, skin and hair.
Statement of Elements | Minerals in Supplement BOOST
There is no coincidence that the fluids within our bodies (intra, and extracellular blood plasma) rather closely mirror the fluids of our world (the oceans) in the ratios of the various minerals and trace elements. Humans have a tolerance, if not even a dependence on this naturally occurring matrix found in sea water from which we were created or evolved, which contains nearly every primordial element , including some elements known to be toxic in larger amounts. No element works alone, but rather they require a complete matrix to function properly on both a physiological as well as an energetic level.
Balance is the key. Most of the elements have an ideal bell shaped curve identifying the optimal levels. Too much can be toxic, while too little can create deficiency symptoms. Even Oxygen, although universally accepted as necessary for life can be toxic when taken to excess. Similarly, arsenic which has known toxicity has been widely shown to activate growth hormones in minute levels.
What could possibly be safer or have a better overall balance, than replacing these minerals and trace elements from the very sea source where the minerals have gone after they were eroded from our soils?
