The minerals have a negative charge given to them by the plant and a small size – 7 to 10,000 times smaller than a red blood cell – allowing them to be very easily absorbed into the small intestine. The colloidal mineral story started in Utah in 1920 when an ailing rancher named Thomas (T.J.) Clark was led to a spring by an Indian elder – and was given a drink of bitter tasting ‘medicine water’.
