Colloidal Minerals: Fact or Fiction?
Now those transporters bid those minerals tightly but they need to be ionizes. The transporter picks up an ionized form [of the mineral], binds it and immediately pulls it in and then it goes into the blood stream ad goes where it is needed. Whatever the change of a mineral, it still need to get through a dense, negative charge on surface of the intestinal cell and it may be that negative charge is designed to keep out certain undesirable minerals. Transporters have such a high affinity that once an ionized form of a mineral can get into the region, the transporter will pick it up. People who claim that colloids are 98 percent absorbed and that ionized minerals are only 8 to 10 percent absorbed even in the most healthy people have not looked at the literature or are purposely misrepresenting the literature because the literature quite clearly shows the proven essential minerals are absorbed in their ionic forms from ranges from 20to90 percent depending on how hungry their system for th
